I really like This Is Us. I really like Hamilton. At the center of the Venn diagram betwixt the two exists me, I’m sure many of you, and Peggy.

Because as you might know if you have powerful deductive reasoning skills like the ability to look at names, Ron Cephas Jones (William on This Is Us, also from Luke Cage, Mr. Robot and a lot of other great things) is the father of Jasmine Cephas Jones, who originated and currently plays the roles of Peggy Schuyler and Maria Reynolds in Hamilton.

Look how freakin’ damn cute they are.

They’re so cute even her boyfriend and co-star (Laurens/Philip Hamilton) Anthony Ramos can’t help but share it.
