Attention all ‘This Is Us’ enthusiasts! Prepare yourselves for an emotional rollercoaster next week, as we’re set to experience not one, but two brand new episodes of the beloved family drama.
The first installment will air right after the Super Bowl on Sunday, February 4. After a brief respite, we’ll have the second episode ready to go on its usual Tuesday evening slot.
If you’ve been remotely tuned in, you’ve likely seen the intense teasers for Sunday’s episode. Fans will finally witness the heart-wrenching moment of Jack Pearson’s fate, which appears to be linked to a devastating house fire caused by a malfunctioning Crock Pot. Talk about hitting us where it hurts!
As a native of Pittsburgh, I feel especially slighted this year—not only are the Steelers missing from the Super Bowl, but the Pearsons, who are die-hard Steelers supporters, are facing their most dramatic moment right after the big game. I can’t help but feel this is all Tom Brady’s doing—who’s with me on this?
Dan Fogleman, the creative genius behind ‘This Is Us’, recently shared his thoughts on this poignant episode, describing it as “a very sad, beautiful, ultimately thrilling and heartbreaking episode of television.” He went on to say it encapsulates the essence of what this show represents, likely marking it as our saddest episode yet.
Seriously, Dan, how much more can we handle? And by “we,” I mean the dedicated fans of Milo Ventimiglia. Twitter is buzzing with anticipation for the extended post-Super Bowl episode.
While it’s hard to believe that over two years of buildup surrounding Jack’s passing could be a mere dream, one can always hope. And let’s cross our fingers that the episode airing on Tuesday, February 6, serves as a bit of an emotional palate cleanser after the heart-wrenching events of Sunday. Perhaps we should stock up on a Costco-sized box of tissues, just in case!
