GSMHvisitor February 23, 2018 Share February 23, 2018 So basically 2nd to last!!! episode is gonna be a Deja centric? I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in that at all. I liked Deja. But I liked her as a side character whose time on the show was limited. This show really does have a talent of making me fed up with side characters I previously liked by simply overdoing it. If Kevin and Kate are not in that episode I'm gonna be really pissed. I'm here for the big 3 and this season already had enough episodes that didn't further their present day plots. Why add another one so close to the end of the season? 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4087839

A coworker told me about the photos before I saw them, and that was my first thought (Kate on her wedding day imagining that Jack could be there) until she mentioned Rebecca wearing white. Her dress doesn't look quite mother-of-the-bride to me (maybe because it's white, I can picture Kate being miffed), though if it's a fantasy, then it isn't necessarily what she would really wear. The way that Jack and Rebecca are both standing while everyone else in the pictures is seated makes it seem like it could be their wedding in old age. Of course it's two images out of a whole scene and may play out in an entirely different context. Maybe it's a flashback to Rebecca and Miguel's wedding, and one of the Big Three imagines it's Jack with her instead of their stepfather.

I agree, Fogleman wanted those pics out, the same as the funeral and others that were shown early. I'm not feeling it, but maybe in the context of how it happens, I will. He's dead, she can fantasize, but to see her as the focus with him as others are sitting, not walking with Kate or standing with them, it seems "off" to me. I don't think of Miguel as a prop and I hoped the show would have some respect of their marriage with letting Jack be there but not so romantic. If it's Kate's dream, fine, but with backward and forward storylines, I could do without dream sequences. This sounds more 'soap opera" than drama. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4088941

Plus, if it's Rebecca and Miguel's wedding, I would think Rebecca would be styled more like she was in the 2008 scenes with longer hair and not the bad wig and more extreme aging makeup she wears in present day. I mean, I never got the impression she and Miguel had only gotten married within the last couple of years. The only reason I can think for Jack to be aged like that is if it's a dream sequence in which he'd never died, like a "what if". Jack and Rebecca would still be married in such a scenario so yeah, kind of a burn on Miguel, lol. I'm guessing it's Kate on her own wedding day, but still it would be weird for her dream-Jack to be all focused on Rebecca. I would think in such a fantasy he would be beaming proudly at Kate and/or walking her down the aisle, not being all lovey-dovey with her mom. Oh, who knows?

My God, Jack was far from a saint. It's been 20 years and everyone acts like Rebecca should be living in a shrine of Jack, depressed and lonely, keeping a stiff upper lip, marrying no one and giving advice only when needed and no constructive criticism either. Please, If Kate wants to see her dad at her wedding, fine, but to have Rebecca possibly thinking of renewing her vows with Jack or having a double wedding (double barf) I just hope not. This making Jack a saint is not good writing. He of course has lots of secrets and did things in their marriage that weren't right, but it's always "done with love" so overlooked. I hope Miguel isn't a prop to have something else happen and they show a healthy relationship and please have Rebecca smile more, she is allowed. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4091440

And this is what I fully expect of this show and why Jack will forever remain in my least favourite character category for this show. Of course, followed very closely by William. I have discovered how much I loathe character who are treated like gods and utter perfection, even when they have flaws, and how much more interesting I find the completely flawed characters (hi Kevin and Rebecca!). Seriously, I do not need old imaginary Jack to be part of Rebecca's wedding. I'd much rather it was Kate's wedding and it just was about everyone imagining his presence there. That I could tolerate way more. I'm still hoping for season 3 to reflect more on Miguel and Kate as characters. Jack and Randall dominated season 1, Rebecca and Kevin have dominated season 2, so it's only fair for Miguel and Kate to dominate season 3. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4092047

Didn't Beth and Kate at least exchange a few lines in that Thanksgiving (or was it Christmas?) episode where everybody was invited to Randall's and Kate and Toby had sex and Beth sort of teased them about it? It's not much to warrant a bachelorette invit, but at least it's not like Kate and Beth have never exchanged words. Then there's Madison of course, who can definitely be considered Kate's friend at this point.

Perhaps. The only reason I'm not sure that'll be the case is because of this particular quote: Quote "We are throwing everyone together up at the family cabin for a very, very big celebratory occasion," co-showrunner Isaac Aptaker tells The Hollywood Reporter. "We're going to get to meet Toby's parents for the first time, which we're very excited about, and it's something we've wanted to do for quite a while on the show, and this felt like the perfect reason. We're also going to get to meet a member of Beth's extended family, which is something people always ask about. They're always like, 'I want to meet her mom, I want to meet one of her sisters, I want to meet somebody,' so we are finally going to meet another person from Beth's world at the wedding." Also, why wouldn't they cast Beth's entire family? And why be so coy on who's going to be the family member we're meeting? It just makes it seem like they're going to be very important to Beth's story....which actually excites me if she's getting a storyline not about Randall for season three. The interview with Aptaker also makes it sound that at least one, or all three, names are well known. He uses the phrase "in-demand actors", which means they're going to be somewhat important, and possibly will show up again in the third season. I'm just wondering which family member they're casting of Beth's. One of her parents? One of her sisters? 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4122752

Well if that's the case they should have saved Pam Grier for the role of Beth's mom and have her show up again rather than give her a one-and-done stint as Deja's great-grandmother. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4122756

Maybe by "extended" they mean anyone who's not a Pearson.

Since the world revolves around the Pearsons and everyone else is peripheral. That's pretty much exactly how I took it. Or it could be a brother in-law, or a sister in-law, someone married to one of her three sisters. That would also account for them being extended. I'm just trying to think of why Beth's family member would just show up at the wedding. My first assumption is that this person wasn't invited, but came to talk to Beth. Heh, I'd honestly laugh if it turns out a member of Beth's family was an addict and was coming to Beth to get help, and thus parallels to Kevin's addiction. Either that, or someone is terminally ill. I remember seeing that blind item about someone from a popular show finding out they have a terminal illness in the season finale. I wondered if it's this show, and it looks like maybe it could be. I'm genuinely excited to see Beth's family member because there's hope for a storyline outside of the Pearson's. Well, as much as they can probably handle. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4123120

She could have reasonably had a daughter that was born in 1980. It's definitely more reasonable than when she was still in her 40's and playing grandmother to Bonnie on the Vampire Diaries. Madison seems to be a good person. And I did like Sloane. (Although yes, She Who Will Not Be Named was pretty awful.) This show in general doesn't really have a lot of Millennial representation. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4128659

I know one can play older, but I don't see Beth's mom being someone who had her at a young age (like 20ish). And I think Beth is older than Randall for some reason. Not by much though.

3 is enough March 11, 2018 Share March 11, 2018 I have seen a couple of teasers about the finale saying there "may" be a wedding. Since the preview shows Kate coming down the aisle and Toby smiling as he watches her, if there is a last minute change of heart at the altar I am going to be royally pissed off. I just hate that kind of drama. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4135245
Blakeston March 12, 2018 Share March 12, 2018 I can't imagine this show actually killing off Beth (at least, not until the series finale). Sterling K. Brown and Susan Kelechi Watson are 100% on board with their characters being a role model black couple - I don't think either of them would even be willing to do the show without the other. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4137185
Guest March 12, 2018 Share March 12, 2018 Well, it's not like a character death means an actor is leaving the show. I doubt they kill Beth, though. I don't think they'd refer to her as 'pivotal', either. That sounds more like Shauna or some other tertiary character. The way they write this show, it could be a UPS driver. I'm hoping the "may be a wedding" stuff is just aimed at the people who didn't see the teaser. I don't think there is any way of aborting a wedding at the last second that hasn't been done to death.

If it is a UPS driver it will surely involve that cherished Pearson tradition of baring their souls to unsuspecting folks just trying to do their jobs. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/43598-this-is-our-spoiler-and-speculation-topic/page/15/#findComment-4138279
