The 'This Is Us' Cast Played 'Never Have I Ever,' and It Got Weird

Every Tuesday night, This is Us makes us laugh, cry, and say “aw.” And apparently the same goes when the cast reunites IRL. The latest adorable Pearson family moment comes to us by way of Ellen DeGeneres’s Youtube show, “Ellen’s Show Me More Show,” where Milo Ventimiglia, Mandy Moore, and Sterling K. Brown played “Never Have I Ever.”
The two actors—who play father and son, Jack and Randall Pearson—immediately showed their TV wife and mom love with the first question, “Have you ever jammed out to a Mandy Moore song?” Turns out, the only person of the trio to say never was Mandy herself. While Milo and Sterling weren’t fully buying it, the thought of the two men listening to “Candy is honestly a beautiful visual.
Things get progressively more racy when the actors are asked if they ever had a sex dream about a co-star, to which Ventimiglia responds, “What job we talkin’ about?” (Ironically, he has an affinity for dating his on-screen love interests, including Hayden Panettiere and Alexis Bledel.) Brown takes it one step further, insinuating that he’s had “special” dreams about Moore, nuzzling in her in the ear and saying, “Oh mommy.” OK, one step too far, Sterling.
But because it’s the This Is Us cast, they had to end on an incredibly sappy note. As they all declare “never have I ever felt as close to cast mates as I have on this show,” both men kiss Moore on the cheek, as she says, “This is the best job I’ve ever had and that’s thanks in large part to you guys.” Is Dan Fogelman scripting their real life interactions now too?
