Is This Is Us new tonight, January 8? Find out is This Is Us on tonight and if NBC is showing a new This Is Us season 3 episode this Tuesday.
Is This Is Us new tonight, January 8? Fans of NBC‘s critically acclaimed drama may be asking that exact question, given that the rest of the network’s primetime lineup is rolling out this week. Will its most popular drama also be on the schedule?
Surprisingly, that’s not the case. NBC has decided to push the This Is Us midseason premiere back a week, because it’s doing some extra promotion for its reality show Ellen’s Game of Games. This week, Ellen DeGeneres’ game show returns at 8 p.m. Tuesday and is airing a bonus second episode in the 9 p.m. slot that usually belongs to the Pearson family.
You’ll have to wait another week for the next new episode of This Is Us, which is called “The Last Seven Weeks.” It focuses on the conclusion to the political campaign Randall Pearson (Sterling K. Brown) has been running all season.
Meanwhile, his brother Kevin Pearson (Justin Hartley) meets someone from the past of somebody close to him, and their sister Kate Pearson (Chrissy Metz) continues to prepare for the arrival of her first child.
That’s an incredibly important episode, that will feature at least one turning point for the trio, so TV fans won’t want to miss it. However, there’s going to be a seven-day delay while NBC features one of its more popular unscripted shows.
The good news is, aside from this delay, there aren’t any more breaks scheduled for the rest of the near future. This Is Us season 3 not only returns on Jan. 15, but it starts off a two-parter the next week, on Jan. 22.
