I'm psychic, LadyJ. I predict it will return on January 2, 2018 for another 8 episodes. Oh, wait, maybe I read that somewhere.

Thanks Cluny!

So what happened? Wrong prediction- it did not return January 2 (last night).

From the NBC site: "This Is Us RETURNS JANUARY 9 | TUESDAY 9/8c"

Thanks for that Scorpion. I assumed it would get pushed back a week after it wasn't on last night since the above was only a prediction. I really wish TPTB weren't so tight lipped about their schedules. It really is hard to plan when I have to keep looking for when my show is going to air next. I'm still waiting to hear more than "2018" for two shows. And it would probably be more if I watched more TV. Ridiculous.

I was so I had and prepared and all in the This Is Us zone, had to scramble and find something else to watch.

You are right it would. I hate when networks say that, "coming in 2018" - but when exactly ? or worse yet "March 2018 " - I'm like really and you are saying that now in January?

I know, me too! I made sure to fill up on my kleenexes too. I was so thrown for a second, that I just stared at the TV. I think I was expecting them to realize that they made a mistake and put TIU on.

Yeah, I checked my two shows just a week ago, and it still said 2018, even the twitter feed. I'm going to check some time in the next couple of days because I suspect they'll say exactly what you said above, March 2018. So freaking frustrating!

(but seriously I was so hurt) We both were probably staring at our at the same time .
