This Is Us - Jack



(Spoiler Alert) 

So after all this time and mental and emotional preparation, we finally see how Jack dies on This Is Us. I have to say, I was a little disappointed. It was like when we thought Glenn died on TWD, but then he was really under a dumpster, but then he really got his head smashed in. The original false death would have been more shocking and more interesting in some ways for the character arcs, so they should have just gone with it. Instead, it just kind of seems wishy washy, like the writers can't decide if they want to really kill a character or not. 

Also, on This Is Us, the death happens too fast. We're supposed to believe that someone went from talking and completely coherent to completely dead beyond resuscitation in about five minutes. There wasn't even any medical staff still in the room remotely trying to do anything. Worst hospital ever.
