THIS IS US
NBC, 9:00 p.m. ET
FALL FINALE: I hate the network TV term, and NBC pervasive promo phrase, “Fall Finale.” What it really means is, “The show is going dormant for the holidays, so go watch something else for a month or two.” But I guess that takes longer to say. Yet even though today is the so-called Fall Finale for This Is Us, I recommend it anyway – because a lot is supposed to happen in this episode, on several fronts – and in multiple time lines. Including, in both cases, Vietnam.
