With #ThisIsUs coming to an end, the cast sat down for a roundtable conversation, sharing Pearson family memories from throughout the drama's six seasons. latimes.com/entertainment-…
“The last day of shooting — I don’t know what’s scheduled as of yet, I don’t know who’s filming last — but I want to be there,” Milo Ventimiglia says of the #ThisIsUs farewell. “I want to be there with the group — just to turn the studio lights off.” latimes.com/entertainment-…
“This Is Us” premiered on NBC in 2016 and quickly became a breakout hit, one that demonstrated broadcast television could still launch hits even as streaming continued its dizzying expansion. latimes.com/entertainment/…
“It’s really starting to hit now,” Sterling K. Brown says of shooting the final scenes. “I was like, ‘Oh, we’re not going to go back to the cabin? I’ve been coming to this cabin for six years, and now it’s almost done?’ It’s a little much for me. I’m sad.” latimes.com/entertainment-…
Created by Dan Fogelman, who guides the series with help from co-showrunners Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger, the drama revolves around the Pearson family as its members navigate the joys and challenges of life — all while jumping across decades. latimes.com/entertainment/…
Mandy Moore was so upset after reading the script for the penultimate episode of #ThisIsUs that she threw up: “It caught my breath. My husband kept checking in on me, like, ‘Are you OK?’ I’d be on page five, like, ‘I can’t do this, I can’t do this.’” latimes.com/entertainment-…
“I couldn’t talk. I just couldn’t,” says Milo Ventimiglia. “We’re seeing these characters that we’ve lived with for so many years, experienced these things, and they’re slowly wrapping up... That whole six years of experience just grabs you.” latimes.com/entertainment-…
Ahead of tonight’s series finale, look back on the Pearson family’s most memorable moments. latimes.com/entertainment-…

@Angels@BillShaikin From Sidhu's election as Anaheim mayor until last week, he ran negotiations with the #Angels exactly how he'd bemoaned city leaders had run talks with the NFL in 2005: obscuring truth from the public and the city council, and trying to silence critics. latimes.com/sports/angels/…
