On her Instagram, Mandy Moore celebrated her final days on the "This Is Us" set with a sentimental post. "Last day of work," wrote the actress, who plays mother and grandmother Rebecca Pearson on the show. "The greatest 6 years at the best job I've ever had. Gratitude, gratitude, gratitude (and definitely lots of tears)."

In 2021, Moore elaborated on her feelings about the show coming to an end in an interview with Associated Press at PaleyFest. "We are slowly starting to say goodbye to the audience, and one another," Moore told the audience. "It is a slow goodbye. It's strange, but I guess I wouldn't want it any other way. If it were like abrupt, that would feel way too aggressive. And our show has too much heart for that."

Milo Ventimiglia, who plays Mandy Moore's late onscreen husband, Jack Pearson, also had a lot to say. "So, that's it," he said on his Instagram story, which he used to give viewers a brief tour of the set, even sharing a few clips of himself and Mandy Moore on their last commute to the set. "That is a wrap on Season 6," he concluded. "That is a wrap on the whole series of 'This is Us.' Thank you for being a part of the journey. Thank you for being around for it all. Hope you've all enjoyed it."

Susan Kelechi Watson — who plays Beth Pearson, the wife of Randall (Sterling K. Brown) — paid tribute to the show by posting a photo of her and Brown on Instagram. The caption read, "We just wrapped our last scene together of the series."

Sterling K. Brown also shared an emotional video on Instagram, celebrating being a week out from the end. "We are one week away from finishing shooting on 'This Is Us,'" the actor said. "It's winding down. It's been an amazing six years. Sets are being torn down, but the memories will last forever."

On Twitter, he shared a photo of him and Watson wrote a note that honoured his onscreen wife in particular. "The end of many eras…literally!! Su, it has been an absolute joy and pleasure to be your TV husband and grow old together as Pearsons," he wrote.

Jon Huertas, who plays Miguel Rivas on the show, expressed mixed feelings to Us Weekly shortly after filming wrapped. "I did have my final day on set and, yeah, it was bittersweet," he said on April 28. "Part of me was really happy that we were able to end the story the way that we wanted to, and part of me is very sad that I'm not gonna be working with these actors on a daily basis and this crew. I'm gonna miss that, so that's the sad part."

The actor went on to say that although he will miss the show, he wouldn't change anything about how it all turned out. "It's really nice to be able to say, 'We did that,' and walk away without feeling any regret and not thinking like, 'Oh, I wish we could've shot that one episode that we always talked about' or 'I wish we could've done this,'" he said. "We don't have to worry about that . . . We're happy and proud of [what we did]."

Ron Cephas Jones, who plays Randall's birth father William, also paid tribute to the show on Instagram on his last day on set. "Last day shooting on 'This Is Us' for 'William.' Last season (6)," he wrote, sharing a photo with himself and Ventimiglia. "Milo stopped by to give me some love in [hair/makeup]," he added. "So many feelings (that's for another post Haha!). Stay tuned! Blessed/Humbled/Loved."
