"This is Us" dialog question

This week was a good episode of “This Is Us”. And there was a quote that I can’t stop thinking about. It’s when Randall was asking Beth to marry him - “And I don’t want to do life without you.”

Is there any possible way to find out which writer in Hollywood (or wherever) wrote that line?

I think the writers are in the credits. Have you checked IMDB?

It felt out of place to me. Took me out of the episode because it was a flashback, and “do life” sounds like 2019 shorthand. Back then, especially when someone was being serious*, they would’ve said “And I don’t want to live life without you” or “And I don’t want to experience life without you.”

*a proposal is no time to be using cutesy slang, especially someone as serious as Randall.

That’s true, perhaps that’s why it stuck out to me so much. Anachronistic or not, I still think it’s a great line.

And yeah, the writers are listed, but I was wondering if it was possible to find out which specific writer wrote that line. No biggie, was just a question I had on a boring Friday night :slight_smile:
