After 'This Is Us' final season announcement, this is how the cast members reacted

As the sixth and final season of American romantic drama ‘This Is Us’ was announced on May 13, it’s not just the fans who are upset over the news, but the show’s cast also got emotional about the decision.

Last week, as the show’s creator, Dan Fogelman formally announced that the show will be renewed for season 6, fans were also informed that the series will officially end its run on NBC after Season 6. Currently, the fifth season of the series is being aired on NBC.

Whoever casually first said "All good things must come to an end" never had to end their favorite thing. While sad to have just 1 season left, also grateful to NBC for letting us end the show how, and when, we always intended.

We'll work hard to stick the landing. #ThisIsUs

Logan Shroyer who has played Kevin through his high school years and into his early 20s reposted creator Fogelman’s announcement on his Instagram story and wrote, “That's almost a wrap folks." 

Justin Hartley who plays Kevin, in a recent interview didn’t give away much about his reaction to the final season, but said he knows why fans are still so attached to the story after five seasons, reported US Weekly.

"When you can write something that’s that authentic or real or pure, I think people see themselves in it and they relate to the characters," the actor explained. 

Filmed in the city of sunshine- Los Angeles, ‘This Is Us’ is a heartwarming and emotional story about a unique set of triplets, their struggles and their wonderful parents. It stars an ensemble cast featuring Milo Ventimiglia, Mandy Moore, Sterling K. Brown, Chrissy Metz, Justin Hartley, Susan Kelechi Watson and Chris Sullivan among others.

The soft romantic drama has received widespread critical acclaim from critics and has been a smash hit for NBC right from its first season. 20th Television production company owned by Walt Disney Television has produced the show.
