Telly’s Take

Fans shouldn’t have to spend time wondering whether NBC will cancel or renew This Is Us TV for season three. The Peacock Network picked up the second and third installments, back in January of 2017. And they did so with good reason. This Is Us even outperformed the ratings juggernaut which is The Voice in its 2016-17 demo ratings. Did they make the right decision, or will they end up cancelling the third season renewal? Many hit shows have floundered in their second seasons.
