One of television's most popular shows is nearing its end.

Today, news broke that This Is Us will conclude after it airs a sixth and final season next year. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the news isn't yet official, but fans should expect confirmation from NBC on Friday.

This Is Us to end after season 6 in 2022

However, NBC is not cancelling This Is Us. It's always been viewed as a six-season series, and the final season will take the show through its contract, which was the plan all along.

This Is Us is currently airing season 5. Episode 14 of the abbreviated 16-episode season showed on Tuesday, and this season's finale is set for May 25. The sixth and final season will then go ahead in the 2021-22 TV season.

For fans, it is sad news that there's only one more season to come. But This Is Us will go out on its own terms, as six seasons had been the plan for the series from the get-go.

There are two episodes to go this season, airing on the next two Tuesdays. You can test your This Is Us knowledge in our quiz here.
