Broadcast TV's biggest new hit show will be airing on NBC through at least the 2018-19 season.

NBC announced a two-season renewal for its breakout family drama This Is Us today at the Television Critics Association's winter press tour in Pasadena, Calif. The network shared the news with the show's cast and producers just minutes before they met with reporters.

"The show means everything to us," said NBC Entertainment president Jennifer Salke.

The renewal covers "no less than 36 episodes," with "at least" 18 episodes per season (the Season 1 episode count), said Salke.
