As the show progressed, both timelines pushed forward, revealing the intimate details of the lives of the entire Pearson family, frequently venturing into tearjerker territory. The cast includes Justin Hartley, Chrissy Metz, and Sterling K. Brown, with Milo Ventimiglia as their father and Mandy Moore as their mother, playing the same role in both timelines.
