This is good news. On the heels of its series premiere last week, Variety reports NBC has picked up new series This Is Us for a full season.
From Dan Fogelman, the drama follows a group of seemingly unconnected people who happen to share the same birthday. The cast includes Milo Ventimiglia, Mandy Moore, Sterling K. Brown, Chrissy Metz, Justin Hartley, Susan Kelechi Watson, Chris Sullivan, and Ron Cephas Jones.
NBC has ordered 18 episodes for season one of This Is Us.
From NBC Entertainment president Jennifer Salke:
It’s a rare moment in this business when a show so instantly delivers both critical acclaim and hit ratings, but ‘This Is Us’ is just such an extraordinary achievement. Creator Dan Fogelman, along with co-directors Glenn Ficarra and John Requa and the gifted producers, cast and crew, has delivered the kind of heart and depth that resonates with every segment of the audience, and we’re proud to extend its presence on our schedule.”
