The first season of This Is Us was an emotional roller coaster!

We left the Pearson family on a cliffhanger at the end of last season.

Jack (Milo Ventimiglia) and Rebecca (Mandy Moore) got into a screaming match after Jack got drunk and got into a brawl with Ben (Sam Trammell) which resulted in the cancellation of Rebecca’s tour.

Rebecca was understandably annoyed and the couple got locked in a massive fight, which ended with Jack leaving the house.

We were left with so many questions at the end of season one!

Thankfully, the flawed Pearson family is back for a second season which is set to be just as shocking and heartfelt.
