Season 3 of This Is Us consists of 18 episodes. By Thanksgiving week, the current season of the show will be half over. During the holiday season, NBC usually moves things around and postpones its regular shows for at least two weeks. It is presumed that This Is Us will be on a brief hiatus this winter, resuming sometime in January, but those exact dates have not yet been announced.
“We have a lot of big stuff coming. We’re six episodes in editing and 11 episodes in script, and I feel very strongly that this season is as strong as we’ve ever been. I feel very confident,” creator Dan Fogelman told Deadline back in September.
