The fifth season of This Is Us will have two episodes less. Supposedly, this decision is related to corona. In late May, the season finale will take place. Last year, NBC decided to have the fifth season of
This Is Us premiere
two weeks sooner. It is currently airing on the network, but the ending of the current season will take place earlier than expected. The first four seasons had eighteen episodes, the fifth season will have only sixteen. On the 25th of May, the final episode of the season will air.
Supposedly, the shortening of the season is due to the consequences of the corona pandemic. In 2019, the popular drama series was renewed with its fifth, sixth and seventh season. Each season was supposed to have eighteen episodes. Now that the fifth season will be given two less, it is not known whether or not these two episodes will be added to the sixth or seventh season.
