whether there's been a gap in your DVR that used to be filled with a weekly hourlong cry fest,then look no further - we've found the new plunge present for you! NBC's new hour-long series This Is Us already looks like a hit (and one that will serve up a healthy dose of relatable realness). Plus, it's got some serious star power behind it, and it's written by Dan Fogelman,who penned Crazy, Stupid treasure, or so consider us sold.
Who's Starring?Milo Ventimiglia,Mandy Moore, Justin Hartley, or Sterling K. Brown,Chrissy MetzWhat It's AboutIt's an ensemble dramedy about a group of people who all enjoy the exact same birthday and are on the verge of some major life changes as they all turn 36. Ventimiglia and Moore play a married couple about to enjoy triplets, Hartley is an actor, and Brown is on a search for his birth father,and Metz is battling an eating addiction. (It's unclear from the trailer how frequently the stories will interconnect, but I'd assume they'll all cross paths eventually).
First ImpressionVentimiglia recently compared his new present to Parenthood during an interview on the Gilmore Guys podcast, and that seems spot on after watching the trailer. There's a dearth of current shows that fit into the same genre as Parenthood,and the trailer shows promise to deliver that same emotional (whether a little tacky) punch. When Is It On?The present will air Tuesdays at 9 p.m. on NBC. Stay tuned for a premiere date!Watch the Traile
