These episodes will also have glimpses of their younger selves. It will give viewers a better understanding of how their past shaped their present situations. The stories will also unmask and put some characters in an unpleasant light.
"The next three episodes are a trilogy of sorts and they go to some deeply darkly places," Moore said. "I suggest that people be patient and stick with it because we need to go there. There will be bigger payoffs later."
"They're very much interconnected, especially their stories in the past," Moore further said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight. "They sort of [tell] the same story from different points of view."
Following the trilogy of episodes, "This Is Us" will air one final story in the first week of December and then go on a hiatus for the holidays. The show will be back in January for the next half of the season.
"This Is Us" season 2 will only have 18 episodes but NBC renewed the series for the third season for 2018-2019. Catch the show every Tuesdays at 9:00 p.m. EST.
