This Is Us will return to NBC this fall with its second season, and fans will continue to see the drama on Tuesday nights after the series was moved back from a night switch. At Upfronts, NBC had announced plans for a move to Thursday nights.
That decision was reversed, and Jennifer Salke, NBC entertainment president, revealed why at the ATX Television Festival. She said the following, per The Hollywood Reporter:
“We all had to look each other and say, ‘This is not in the best interest of the show.’ On Thursday, we have would hit a wall with football on NBC and we would be off the air almost for two months. We have to do what’s right for a show that is grounding and incredible in every way. It would be a disservice to not treat it that way.”
This Is Us was a big hit during its first season. Fans will see an 18-episode season two this fall on NBC. Are you glad to see this series remaining on Tuesday nights? Tell us what you think.
