It's an insanely dramatic way to end things, not least because the rest of the episode progresses in a much lower key.March 12, 2018
After all, the episode's title is "That'll Be the Day," and I spent too many long car rides as a child listening to my parents' oldies station not to know that that jauntily sung Buddy Holly lyric ends with the words, "that I die."March 09, 2018
There's this heartbreaking montage of all the things the Pearsons are about to lose in the fire.March 12, 2018
With "That'll Be the Day" as its title, we knew the Tuesday, January 23, episode of This Is Us had to be a doozy, likely related to Jack's death, and we were right.March 09, 2018
That final scene was just horrifying.March 09, 2018
And then the episode went ahead and ended on a cliffhanger instead, leaving all that emotional buildup without anywhere to go. What a classic This Is Us twist!March 09, 2018

Like so many things with this show, what's actually going on isn't anything monumental, but every single scene set in the past has extra weight to it because we know what we know.June 15, 2018
[The best] thing about "That'll Be The Day" is the gnawing feeling that something really terrible is going to happen.March 09, 2018
First thing, This Is Us fans, retrieve your slow cooker from the garbage can. Your crock-pot didn't do anything wrong.
