Douglas sees the trip as the perfect opportunity to change Connie’s mind about leaving him, but as he struggles to be the fun, spontaneous person she desires, it will clearly not be an easy task.
The opening episode of the miniseries received a mixed response from viewers, with many describing it as “slow,” while others seemed to enjoy Hollander’s performance as a sad man in agony.

“The #BBCUs it is very slow. Some good watching moments, but not enough to keep #Us stalking. It’s a shame because I loved the book, “tweeted one viewer.
Another wrote: “Desperately trying to get through this first episode, but a lengthy dialogue about Douglas getting his 10,000 steps and the photograph of the son in focus is generating a really drab visualization. #Us. “
“Immediate reaction to #BBC Sunday night drama #Us. Whim. Too fad in adult history. The backstory is fine and really worth watching. Hollander and Reeves are excellent actors. But the script and the staging are fucking annoying, “added another.
