"This Is Us writer Jas Waters passed away"


          

https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/tv/story/2020-06-10/jas-waters-dead-this-is-us-tv-writer

Can’t say I was familiar with who she was but This Is Us is one of my favorite shows. The writing on that show is brilliant.

No cause of death known at this time. Only 39 years young.

RIP

will forever be thankful to the writing staff for the depth and authenticity of the black (and all) characters on that show

Randall and Beth's dialogue is too nuanced to have been written by any other ethnicity

i think her current gig was writing on Kidding, Jim Carrey's show on Showtime? Netflix?

anyways. sad news. i'm an avid podcast listener, and i've heard her multiple times on various pods. she seemed like a really dope person and obviously, her passing sounds very unexpected.

It was obvious there were black people in the room for that show because the writing for the Black family really made me love this show.

At one point she had a podcast on Combat Jack's platform. Only 39 that's really sad.
