After completing negotiations for a deal on the phone, Jon goes out onto the balcony of his office, leaves his phone and an envelope on the table, and calmly steps over the edge to his death. Meanwhile, Gary is at the doctor's for a check-up to see if his breast cancer is still in remission. When Eddie gets the call, he is packing a suitcase and about to leave his workaholic wife Katherine for his lover. Rome has just stuffed a handful of pills in his mouth when he gets the call and spits them out. Gary brings Maggie from his cancer support group to the funeral and wake, where she gets on well with Delilah and Regina. The four men met when trapped in an elevator, and since they were all Boston Bruins fans, Jon bought them season tickets every year. They go to the next game together to honor Jon and try to figure out why he did it. Rome admits he has been depressed and the others insist he get help.

Production

Development

It's an optimistic look at how the loss of a friend is the impetus for the other seven to finally start living, to make a promise to him and to themselves to finally be honest about what's really going on,... I know in my own life, my friend's passing is a constant reminder to keep things in perspective.

—Creator D. J. Nash, creator on the underlying themes of the series.[76]

On August 18, 2017, ABC landed a series titled A Million Little Things with a put pilot commitment, to be written by DJ Nash, who would serve as executive producer alongside Aaron Kaplan and Dana Honor. The series was described as "being in the tone of The Big Chill," with the title stemming from the popular adage, "Friendship isn't a big thing – it's a million little things."[76] Nash came up with the idea for the series following his single-camera comedy pilot Losing It. He said that "Sometimes in comedy, you have to apologize for adding drama, which is why I was so thrilled to see ABC's passion for a drama that has comedy".[76] ABC officially ordered the series to pilot in January 2018,[77] and the show was officially picked up to series on May 9, 2018.[19] The series is produced by ABC Studios and Kapital Entertainment.[19] On February 5, 2019, during the TCA press tour, A Million Little Things was renewed for a second season.[78][2][3] On August 8, 2019, it was announced that ABC had ordered a full season for the second season.[79] On May 21, 2020, ABC renewed the series for a third season which premiered on November 19, 2020.[4][5] At the PaleyFest New York panel, Nash announced that the COVID-19 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement will be part of the storylines for the third season.[80]

Production on the pilot took place from March 12 to 29, 2018,[82] in Vancouver, British Columbia.[83] Principal photography for the first season began on July 24, 2018, and concluded on February 4, 2019.[84] Filming for the second season began on June 19, 2019 and ended on February 19, 2020.[85] Filming for the third season began on August 27, 2020 and is scheduled to end on May 12, 2021.[86]
