maybe we'd live in a different world if someone had sat the creative team of this is us down, held their hands and said. hey. hey. you know you don't have to write kevin and sophie together if you don't want to, right?

#i have never in my life seen an endgame ship/love interest written like this #and I've seen some cases where it was clear the writers were reluctant at best and hostile at worst but #even then there seemed to be some... spark somewhere. in the character if not the ship? and if there wasn't the pairing crumbled anyway #but not this one lol #like. i just finished rewatching s5 and this time I'll actually try to watch s6 #so it might do something different in s6 (if it does it'll be very minor)#bur for now i can categorically say that sophie went FIVE SEASONS without having a plot with a character other than kevin #the only other love interest of kevin who had that honour is the Other Girl in season 1 #and ig sophia bush as the hall pass lady lmao #and both actually had more sparkling personalities than sophie but ymmv #like. this show looooooves The Interactions TM #you can tell how significant a secondary character is by how many pearsons they talk to outside their assigned one lmfao #we're TOLD sophie was once Kate's best friend and they haven't shown that ONCE so far #kophie is completely disconnected from the rest of the story. unmoored. this is noooot a good thing lmao #it really doesn't help that the actress has about negative charisma #the good thing about this rewatch is that idc much about kevin's fate so. eh #talking to the void #my thoughts #tiu thoughts #this is us #antikophie for ts
