Why This Is Us To Air Repeat Tonight

If you were wondering why there won't be a new episode tonight of This Is Us is due to COVID-19 related production delays. 

The creator, Dan Fogleman, tweeted out Tuesday morning, " No new episode of This Is Us tonight. But the next few are big ones, and we are close, so we hope you'll hang in there with us. Sorry!"

There's been a massive surge of coronavirus cases in the Los Angeles county; This Is Us is one of many Los Angeles-based shows whose return from a holiday hiatus was delayed. For This Is Us, the delay is to believe to be about a week and a haf. Production has resumed this week. 

So expect tonight and next week (Tuesday, Jan. 26th) to be repeated with fresh episodes slated to begin airing on Tuesday, Feb. 2nd. 

While we were left with a surprising cliffhanger promo, I'm okay with a couple of repeats as this should get me prepared mentally to see where the show will go from Kevin's car crash. Whatever it takes to for the show to keep the cast and crew safe is fine with me.

The Crew, A New Netflix Comedy

 

On Friday, Netflix has released the first trailer for the new original comedy series, The Crew. 

Starring Kevin James (The King of Queens and Kevin Can Wait), as the crew chief to a NASCAR team that isn't quite the champion that you would expect. Soon, Kevin's character and his team learn that their owner is stepping down and gives his daughter ownership, who thinks to make some changes to get the team winning. So James has to protect his team from her attempts to change the team.

From the trailer, it's your typical Kevin James sitcom that I'm sure it'll bring in the laughs.  I'm a fan of James from The King of Queens, Paul Blart Mall Cop, and the first season of Kevin Can Wait. So I do look forward to checking out The Crew.

Wings star Coming to Chicago Med

 

Looks like Steven Weber will be scrubbing in at Chicago Med.

TVLine has learned on Wednesday that Steven Weber will be in a recurring role in the NBC hit medical drama's sixth season.

Weber, whose most recent roles were in Netflix's 13 Reasons Why and NBC's Indebted, will play Dr. Dean Archer, a wry, blunt, and talented physician who makes the move from a rural hospital to Gaffney Chicago Medical Center's Emergency Department, where he already knows one of the docs. 

As a former Naval officer, Dr. Archer oversaw Dr.Ethan Choi during active duty. But with Ethan as the newly instated chief of the ED, Dr. Archer finds himself struggling to be second in command. 

Weber is slated to make his debut in early March.

In a recent interview with TVLine, showrunners Andrew Schneider and Diane Frolov said that Ethan will have his own struggling as the ED's chief. "(There's) a lot of strife and adapting to" his new position. "It's not only the pressure that he puts on the staff, but the pressure he puts on himself to perform. There are consequences."

Weber has a long-acting credit, mostly known for his leading role in the 1990's NBC sitcom, Wings. And not to mention, Get Shorty, Ballers, NCIS: New Orleans, Mom, iZombie, Chasing Life, Brothers and Sisters, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, and Once and Again. 

I'm so looking forward to seeing Steven Weber and what he will bring to the show. It looks like adding Weber's character will give Ethan a much challenging role as the chief in the ED.I can't wait!

My Thoughts:

Holy smokes! Just from reading the episode's synopsis and the promos, all three episodes sound really good. Fire is probably the one that I'm most looking forward to with Herrmann and Cruz being trapped. I just if they would do like one hour of them in an elevator while the team tries to rescue them. This looks like a new episode that the series hasn't done before, one rescue in the hour of an episode. 

PD has me interested in Burgess' story with what could possibly change her life forever from a previous case? From the title and understanding of the previous two episodes from just the synopsis, could she be fostering a child? And should we be worried about Hailey after not seeing her dad? 

Med looks good, I'm looking for something good for Will Halstead to have in his life after nothing but pain the last few episodes with Hannah and not being Chief of the ED. I just wonder if they're running out of stories for Noah to have. While I've enjoyed him and rooting for him, the last storyline wasn't my favorite of his. Also, I'm a bit shocked how Natalie and Crockett took things in their relationship so fast.
