The Big Three and company will be back next month as NBC’s This Is Us continues its interwoven and interconnecting stories with flash-forwards, flashbacks and present day drama for the Pearson family.

On Monday, the series fourth season key art was released with a very telling tag line which bodes as a promise to the viewers and what could be ahead for their favorite characters:  “If you think you know what’s coming next…you don’t know us.”

The new posters forms an amalgamation of images from with Jack (Milo Ventimiglia) and Rebecca (Mandy Moore) smiling and in bed together, while Kate (Chrissy Metz) and Toby (Chris Sullivan) are shown with their newborn baby boy Jack, while Kevin (Justin Hartley) flashes that signature smile and Randall (Sterling K. Brown) and Beth (Susan Kelechi Watson) look to once again be a united front.

What we do know about the upcoming season is that fans of the show should be on the lookout for what goes on in Rebecca and Miguel’s (Jon Huertas) relationship, while Randall and Beth start life over together in Philadelphia, and a new addition to the cast makes her presence known when Once a Upon Time’s Jennifer Morrison is introduced as a brand new character to the mix.

This fall, new talkers from Tamron Hall and Kelly Clarkson will be part of the daytime television landscape, and now comes word that Drew Barrymore may enter the space with a new talk show for her that is in development with the pilot being shot this coming week.

According to Variety, details of the proposed one-hour show are not all clear, but Drew is said to be one of the executive producers of the pilot episode and yet there is no showrunner attached to the project at this time.  Barrymore’s company, Flower Films is likely attached as well.

Back in 2016, Barrymore had a deal in place with Warner Brothers Telepictures for a talk show, but that never came to pass, in part to a lukewarm response from TV station groups at that time.

However now the new regime at CBS’ syndication arm is said to have ‘high hopes’ for the show and they feel that Drew will appeal and do well in the daytime arena.

Barrymore recently appeared in her third season of  Netflix’s Santa Clarita Diet in its 30 episode season. Through her Flower Films she was been an executive producer on unscripted series including TLC’s Rattled and VH1’s Tough Love.

Great news for The Bold and the Beautiful and their long-awaited payoff: that the little girl being raised by Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) as “Phoebe” is really Liam (Scott Clifton) and Hope’s (Annika Noelle) daughter, Beth, who they believed had died in the long and twisty baby switch storyline.

B&B was the highest rated daytime television show in the key 25-54 womens demo and the first time in the 32-year-old history of the CBS sudser that it has been atop of that demo. That is not only among the network soaps but all series genres in daytime for the week of August 5-9 –  quite the feat.

During the ratings week, Liam figured out that Phoebe was Beth, and eventually after Thomas’ (Matt Atkinson) manipulations told Hope the truth.

All this goes to show that as frustrated as viewers get wanting the truth to come out in a story they follow; when it finally does, they are along for the ride. Something B&B executive producer and head writer, Brad Bell does exceptionally well with big umbrella storylines that hold major ramifications for many on the canvas.

Congrats to Brad and the B&B team!
