‘This Is Us’ Season 2 Live Stream: How to Watch Episode 2 Online

Ron Batzdorff/NBC Justin Hartley as Kevin on This Is Us.

The second season of NBC’s hit series This Is Us got off to a shocking start, so you won’t want to miss the second episode, “A Manny-Splendored Thing,” live. The episode picks up right after we learned that Jack might have died in a house fire. “A Manny-Splendored Thing” debuts at 9:00 p.m. ET on Tuesday, October 3, 2017. If you don’t have access to a television tonight but still want to watch on your computer or mobile device, you have options to live stream it.

All options are for U.S. users only.

Those with a cable subscription can watch via NBC.com or the NBC app, but if you have cut the cable cord — or are looking to do so — you can watch via a free trial of one of the following over-the-top streaming services if you’re in a select market:
