Series creator Dan Fogelman told Deadline last month that the series will be “diving heavy” into patriarch Jack’s experience in Vietnam in Season 3. To help with the accurate portrayal of the war, This Is Us in June brought in renowned Vietnam journalist and author Tim O’Brien (The Things They Carried) as a consultant.
