The show starts at a peak and although it does not maintain its momentum, the episodes that follow are still worth getting credit. Once you get attached to the life of the orphaned boy at the start of the show, feeling how he feels and knowing why he is not like any other ordinary kid, I swear you won't want to miss any part of the show. It is also impressive about how the same boy picks up friends and its unlike any other kid would act after undergoing the same trauma. The support cast also deserves much credit after all for making the show such a great one to look forward to watch. These are inclusive of characters whom their relatives, husbands and loved ones become diseased following the aftermath at the start of the show. All of the cast contribute to the tonnes of emotion in the show. Overall, it is a wonderful show.
It started out pretty good but it quickly went downhill from there.
Some of the individual stories are more interesting (the congresswoman) or campy enough to enjoy (the rich woman). The rest are just meh, or plain awful, specially the leading kid. Sorry, but he's just insuferable.
What's the point with the whole "he's receiving letters" from all the promos and from that super corny opening credits? It's not part of the plot at all.
I dont know what's the story they want to tell, without an overall goal? Just characters living their life's for multiple seasons? That's not very entertaining, TBH. This could've been a movie instead.

Everything about it is designed to tug at my heart. The performances are wonderful. But, I find it slow and tedious with implausible moments and scenes. But, worst of all are the constant pop songs for every scene. It just feels like a giant club beating me into CONNECTING & FEELING. Let ME find the moment, don't point a giant emotional song at it like: "Here is the part where you should feel melancholy."
I like Jason Katims, I love Connie Britton but, this is a miss for me. I'm sad because I was looking forward to it and because Katims is talented but I just feel this is so constantly poignant that it dulls you after a while.

I bumped into this series by chance and I really didn't know what to expect. It starts slowly as if for many people the tragedy of the plane crash had frozen them in time. But it's just a facade a multilayered one but a facade. A group is formed for the grieves and beneath the surface of every single character, there's an entire world to discover. One one hand a tragedy has ripped people apart and on the other the tragedy has brought together a variety of people that would not have met otherwise. Then we have our miracle boy, the only survival of the plane crash who has to find the strength to carry on with life despite having lost his parents and his hero older brother with whom he was inseparable. Yet, he is not alone: nobody is! This series is a reminder for us all not to take anything for granted because every moment can be your last or someone else's. We get lost in our human drama and suddenly a wake up call happens and we regret not having said or done certain things. We don't know why we are here but every moment counts and every person needs a hug. It's an extremely profound drama which touches a lot of no no buttons. Watch it with an open heart because that's where this series belongs.
Wow! I have no idea where this show is going but the 1st two episodes "HIT HARD" on the emotional sadness scale. It could just be that something about it this show resonated with just me, I don't even know. There is so much depth, expression, hurt that the show does such a great job of bringing it to the viewer, at least this viewer. I hope Dear Edward will soon have an upward track on the GUT-WRENCHING EMOTIONAL SADNESS path because of right now, after Ep.2,, I don't think I can watch anymore episodes that are this "heavy hearted" as it's been too emotionally draining.
Very powerful and emotional show.
Music just fits perfectly with all of the powerful scenes!
