This Is Us cast reacts to the announcement of the show’s final season

The announcement about NBC’s hit family drama This Is Us ending after the sixth season has left fans shocked and heartbroken. The story of the Pearson family will wrap up next year as the show gears up for a final season next year.

The news made fans and the cast of the show equally upset and emotional. Following the news, Dan Fogelman, the creator of the show tweeted a heartfelt message for the fans, uplifting them that the final season will end with a bang while also thanking NBC for allowing the show’s writers and creator to end the show the way they wanted.

“Whoever casually first said ‘All good things must come to an end’ never had to end their favourite thing. While sad to have just 1 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,” Fogelman tweeted.

Mandy Moore, who plays the lead role of Rebecca Pearson in the show, took to Instagram and posted, “Officially official. One season left of my favourite job. You can bet we will be soaking in every single moment.” She also interacted with fans on her Instagram story, reassuring them that even though she’s emotional about her favourite job coming to an end, they still have one season to go and wrap things up as they intended.

Susan Kelechi Watson who portrays the role of Beth Pearson, Randall’s wife retweeted the announcement, hyping up fans that the upcoming season will be an incredible one.

With the sixth and the last season likely to release after a long hiatus in 2022, fans can still have a few more episodes of season five to watch before the finale airing on May 25.
