While this Thanksgiving episode is no Pilgrim Rick origin tale, it's full of the sentimental holiday moments (and drama) that butter the "This Is Us" bread every season. Go to Full Review David Canfield Entertainment Weekly 11/21/2018

This Is Us again experimented with form this week in "Six Thanksgivings," offering a collection of short-stories before tying them together - inevitably, effectively - in a big, emotional montage. Go to Full Review Maggie Fremont New York Magazine/Vulture 11/21/2018
4/5
You can feel [Randall's] relationship with his mother implode. The walls are caving in and Rebecca can't stop it. It is by far the best scene of the series. Go to Full Review Alicia Gilstorf Tell-Tale TV 11/26/2018
3/5
Jack himself embodies many of the values Thanksgiving celebrates, so to have a good chunk of the episode centered on him is a smart move. Go to Full Review Andrea Reiher Refinery29 11/21/2018
The show managed to sneak in some excellent moments while also sticking the landing with its touching final montage - so we'll indulge a six-storyline episode just this once. Go to Full Review Brandon Vieira TV Fanatic 11/21/2018
4/5
Six Thanksgivings. Four great stories... And while I admire the attempt, six was just too many, especially since only four of them made an impact. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
