If you are wondering why you haven't heard much about NBC's upcoming family drama 'The Village,' which will take over the time slot of 'This is Us' after its season 3 finale wrap up, it's mainly because the show is hush-hush about giving away spoilers and, as Michaela McManus confirms, a "surprise is in store."

The upcoming show has already drawn massive comparisons with Mandy Moore's 'This is Us,' due to striking similarity of these two family-themed dramas. However, we are assured that 'The Village' will have a standout identity of its own because McManus tells us so.
