The touching scene arrives at the end of the premiere episode for the sixth season, which kicks off the final run for NBC's award-winning family drama. The episode splits its time between the past and present, as the latter time period sees matriarch Rebecca sharing with her family some more concerning news after a PET scan. The final season premiere of NBC's time-hopping family drama aired Tuesday, setting up fans of the show for one final emotional run with the Pearson family. The drama series follows the lives of the Pearson family as they navigate life, friendships, love, and family. The sixth season premieres tonight (Jan. 4), so you have time to knock out at least one season before the premiere. We suggest you watch the fifth season since that's the latest season.
Then, when you tune in for the sixth season's premiere, you'll be all caught up. After what has been a six-year, highly-emotional ride, NBC's hit family drama This Is Us has reached its final chapter and the last ever season will air in January 2022. In finally confirming that the sixth season of the hit family drama will be the show's final one, NBC has announced that those episodes won't begin to air in their normal 9 p.m. While that hiatus may be agonizing for fans, they should enjoy season 6's airing schedule — which NBC says will be "a largely uninterrupted run" — a lot more than season 5's. As with the case with many shows, the coronavirus pandemic delayed production on season 5 of This Is Us multiple times, resulting in a fractured airing pattern and two episodes being trimmed from the usual 18-episode season order.
Fans of "This Is Us" have been waiting what seems like forever to watch Season 6 of the series. After NBC revealed that Season 6 would be the curtain call for the fan-favorite TV drama, viewers were immediately saddened yet intrigued by what could be in store for the beloved Pearson family. Fans are also dying to know how the show will end and if the series finale will offer a sense of closure for the characters.
"This Is Us" fans will get 18 episodes in the final season, per People Magazine. The cast has teased that there will be another trilogy of episodes that focus on the Big Three and an episode that features the death of Jack's mother. Season 6 is also expected to air without scheduling interruptions, which means that the series finale will likely air on May 3, 2022. Things are teased out a little bit into the future, but there's a journey still to go on, even in our final season. By the time we get to the end, I think we'll have traversed a lot of time. To me, telling a complete story is to provide those answers.
In May 2019, NBC renewed the series through a sixth and final season.As of February 1, 2022, 93 episodes of This Is Us have aired. Dan Folgerman's highly successful family drama 'This is Us' will return to our screens this Tuesday, January 4 on NBC with the first episode of its sixth and final season. NBC revealed that This Is Us wouldn't return for its sixth and final season until midseason, which meant a 2022 premiere date. Even though this means a long hiatus, NBC said that the final season would be a "largely uninterrupted run." The final season will consist of 18 episodes. Having first aired back in 2016, This Is Us is reaching its conclusion in the sixth and final season.
Here's everything we know about the upcoming series so far, including new details on the highly anticipated last season finale. Season 6 of "This Is Us," however, will be doing things a bit differently. NBC confirmed to TVLine that its final season will air "mid-season" — in other words, it'll premiere in early 2022, instead of September of 2021, without that mid-season hiatus.
Over 5 million people tuned in to the Season 5 finale of "This Is Us" last week, according to Deadline. This does not include all those who eagerly watched the episode on Hulu when it was made available on the streaming platform the next day. With a crazy twist ending at the end of the finale, as well as the popular series confirmed to be ending after Season 6, it's safe to say that fans have the Pearson family on their minds. This is not only the season six finale, but it will be the final episode ever aired for the show, with the final season bringing fans back to its roots but also pointing towards the future for the Pearson family after the show ends.
The cast members have also been giving fans some hints about how the show ends, revealing using words like "sad" and "beautiful" to describe the finale. The show's creator, Dan Fogelman, has been very quiet about what's in store for the Pearson family. However, he did reveal that he hopes to answer all of the viewers' questions by the finale.
"My hope is that by the end of the series, there is no stone left unturned," he told Entertainment Weekly. And this is the reason that we are not going to watch This Is Us Season 7, This Is Us. The 6th season of the series is going to be the last one so They won't be any 7th season of the series coming up.
The 6th season of the series Bay space cars was released on the 4th of January 2022. The new story of the season of the series days is ours is going to end at the story of the Pearson family. We can watch Jack and Rebecca be with their kids to raise them everything is going to be different this time. The family the entire big tree family had a lot of complications to live as their family grew with parents, grandchildren, and all.
That was intentional — to get back to this very intimate, small place at the end that is laced with nostalgia for the past of these characters and the past of the show, and just the simplicity of it all. As well as details about the finale, the cast has also revealed some exciting new details on the upcoming series. Speaking to Deadline, Fogelman teased that he has hopes of bringing back some familiar faces from the past in the final season, "especially at the end" and Brown confirmed that we'll "definitely" see Ron Cephas Jones' William again. This Is Us has captivated viewers with its tear-inducing storylines, in-depth explorations of family and some emotional plot twists.
Well, it looks like we're about to get another dose of all of those things very soon. Even though it feels like fans just watched the Olympics last summer , the Winter Olympics are about to get underway in Beijing, and NBC has the exclusive rights to air them. Starting Feb. 4 and running until the closing ceremonies on Sunday, Feb. 20, just about all primetime programming on NBC will be put on hold for fan favorites like figure skating, snowboarding, skiing, and curling. Fans of This Is Us have been bracing themselves for a tearful final episode ever since Fogelman announced last May that the critically acclaimed drama would conclude with season six. "Whoever casually first said 'All good things must come to an end' never had to end their favorite thing," he wrote on Twitter at the time. "While sad to have just one season left, also grateful to NBC for letting us end the show how, and when, we always intended. We'll work hard to stick the landing."
Speaking at NBC's Scripted Press Day on February 11, Fogelman announced that the Season 6 finale will air on May 24, 2022, which means there will be no more hiatuses between now and the show's conclusion once the series resumes next Tuesday . NBCU Television and Streaming's chairman of entertainment content, Susan Rovner, added that the sixth and final season of "This Is Us" will consist of its usual 18 episodes, as the currently airing fifth season will be cut down to 16 due to the pandemic. As he prepares for the last 18-episode run of his NBC drama series "This Is Us," which begins its sixth and final season on Jan. 4, Fogelman is also shepherding a new hit, Hulu's "Only Murders in the Building," which is in the midst of production on Season 2. Breaking away from the show's usual fall release, the sixth and final season premiered on Jan. 4, 2022, on NBC.
Additionally, the final season will air uninterrupted as there will be no midseason break. I think we can all admit that it's hard to create a show that stands out, As we are at a time where television is at it's pinnacle point. So when I started this show I was expecting a mildly entertaining series.
That should tell you all you need to know about this beautiful tale about life. The story revolves around a few characters that seem to be unrelated. Just like the facts that were stated in the beginning of the show.
What sets this show apart from most, isn't the ending, But the journey you take in-between. As someone who's seen many new shows this year, both comedy and drama, I can say with absolute certainty, this is the most memorable. Not only because of it's outstanding story telling but because of it's cast, who bring life to the story. In May 2021, NBC announced that Season 6 of the show would be its last. "I think the feel that bittersweet feeling that I think a lot of the episodes leave you with," actress Chrissy Metz teased told Us Weekly in July. "I think they will feel like a sense of closure and some bittersweet memories." Of course, fans still have a lot of unanswered questions about "This Is Us," leading up to the final episodes, which the series will hopefully answer during Season 6.
"This Is Us" has been one of television's most captivating and heartwarming dramas since its premiere in 2016. The show follows the lives of the Pearson siblings, Kevin, Kate, and Randall, known as the "Big Three" by their parents, per Rotten Tomatoes. The story shows the lives of the Pearson family in the present day and adds context to the story by showing flashbacks of their lives . The show has even revealed flash-forward scenes to give viewers a sneak peek at what lies ahead for the family. DRAMA series, This Is Us, is coming to a close with the airing of the sixth and final season.
Washington, D.C. I remember it like it was yesterday even though I wasn't there. S—, after coming off the bronze at Salt Lake City, coming back, winning Worlds, get outta my face. Also Aly Raisman all-around final 2016 floor routine, that gets me every single time. I re-watch so much figure skating and gymnastics on YouTube. We need to make sure that we have continued obsession with figure skating in this country.
Fogelman also confirmed that another marriage that will receive substantial attention is that of Rebecca and her second husband, Miguel ; while fans know they've been married for several years, their backstory and coming together has remained fairly elusive. Finally, the last season will reveal the show's conclusion, which Fogelman has had planned for quite some time now. He told THR that he has thought of "images of scenes and lines of dialogue" that he eventually wants to bring to life. Fogelman also discussed the use of flash-forwards in the final season as it builds towards the series finale as well as whether the story of the Pearsons could continue beyond the end of This Is Us this spring. "We always knew that Season 6 would be ambitious in terms of the way it jumps time, even more ambitious than other seasons," series creator Dan Fogelman previously told USA TODAY.
When speaking with Variety, NBC's head of scheduling, Steve Kern, confirmed that the sixth and final season of This Is Us will go on a week-long break for resident Joe Biden's "State of the Union" address on March 1. Then the show will come back with the last episodes starting on March 8. A few months ago when the first trailer was released, they showed us of some of the most iconic and memorable moments that the family has lived through the six years that the series has lasted, but also gives a first preview of what will we will see in the final season. It's hard to believe that we're so close to the end of the smash-hit NBC drama starring Mandy Moore, Milo Ventimiglia, Sterling K. Brown, Chrissy Metz and Justin Hartley. In just 18 episodes, we'll all learn what's really going on in that famous flash-forward scene and what the future holds for the Big Three.
In the season 5 finale, we got a better idea of what's in store next when we saw Kevin involved in a construction company called "Big Three Construction," Randall being featured in a magazine as a "rising star," and Kate getting married to another man. "It's gonna deliver. It's truly, truly going to deliver," Milo said about the This Is Us series finale. Dan also revealed season 6 will dive deeper into the Pearson family's future. "Towards the end of the season, it's fair to say we'll live there more," he said in reference to Kate's second wedding, Rebecca's death in the house Kevin built her and the "deeper future" of Jack Jr.
Lately, the most asked question from fans of the Pearson family has been, when will This Is Us be back on NBC? The Big Three and the rest of the crew will return with a new season 6 episode next Tuesday night. But in the meantime, This Is Us creator and showrunner Dan Fogelman has started to share details about when the show will officially end.
It's also a bittersweet moment for NBC and broadcast TV in general. "This Is Us" was an out-of-the-box smash, the kind that doesn't come along often, and definitely not these days at the networks. In addition, actor Griffin Dune Caitlin Thompson , Eris Baker , Faithe Herman , Lyric Ross , Asante Blackk , and Chris Geere are also expected to return for the final season of the show. Fans will also get to see more of Kate and Toby's son, Jack, , who has been seen in flash-forward scenes during his adult life. Fan-favorite actor Alexandra Breckenridge has also teased a return to reprise her character, Sophie, the ex-wife of Kevin, when she spoke with Entertainment Weekly back in July. However, she admitted that there have been scheduling conflicts for her in the past.
The NBC drama will soon be coming to an end and it'll be a big loss for the network given it quickly became a ratings juggernaut as it told the story of triplets and their new parents. The series averaged well over 10 million viewers in the United States which is relatively rare given how many services, networks, and mediums vie for our attention. This Is Uswill be returning for its sixth and final season in January 2022 and while some regions of Netflix receive This Is Us, many do not.
Here's a roundup what Netflix regions have This Is Us and where you can stream it if it's not available. Of course, we wish we never had to say goodbye in the first place, but before you know it, theThis Is Usseason 6 finale will be upon us, so don't miss out on a single episode of this wholesome series airing Tuesdays only on NBC. This Is Us season 6 will culminate in the final episode of the series, which will air in 2022.
While we still don't know if that flash-forward to Kevin's house will be the final scene of the series, it will be a pivotal moment for the Pearsons. However, Dan did admit to EW that Kevin and Sophie's relationship doesn't feel "resolved" yet. Alexandra Breckinridge revealed to Us Weekly that she "did do a scene where they did old makeup, but I don't think it made it to the show." It could still be possible that Sophie pops up in the final season. In the last few years, Alexandra hasn't been able to return to the show as easily because of Virgin River scheduling conflicts. Since we're talking about This Is Us, you can expect an emotional roller coaster in the final season.
Filming is already underway, and the first trailer dropped on Thanksgiving. HollywoodLife has all the latest news about This Is Us season 6. Despite its success, This Is Us' creators announced that the upcoming 6th season, which is expected to have 18 episodes, will be the show's final season. The reference point I give are those sprawling family novels that some people really dig into. I'm actually reading one now that I'm really enjoying, All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr. The ones that have always spoken to me are the ones where you feel like you've gone on a real journey with the characters who are intrinsically linked, often by family.
You close the book and feel like you've been told a complete story. And it's one of the things that playing with time on this show has allowed us to do. When you go through a low point in your life linearly — if you're just going hour by hour and day by day — it can be a very bleak period for a long time. If you're able to zoom out and look at the whole of your life, and look at years from now, maybe you see how one piece of the journey led you to another piece of the journey that was much brighter and lighter than the previous part. That seems impossible right now." And I think that's a little bit of what Kevin has in store for him moving forward. It's always a difficult part of the show to speak about anything too early.
But the show spans a lot of time and, especially where we're going deeper into our final season, you're going to see the completion of a lot of journeys. Because we spend more time than just exists linearly, we'll hopefully be able to complete all of our stories and journeys, however long that takes in the calendar time in the show. But in terms of who is going to live or die, I can't really say that part.
It may have crept up on us, but the show's ending has been mapped out for quite some time. The Pearson family will, of course, be returning for the sixth and final season. Series regulars Moore, Brown, Metz and Hartley will all be returning to our screens alongside Susan Kelechi Watson (who plays Randall's wife Beth), Chris Sullivan (who plays Kate's now ex-husband Toby) and Huertas .
