SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. - A Phoenix-area comedian is getting his chance in the spotlight next week on the This Is Us season finale.

Sean Dillingham trains improv players at The Comedy Spot in Scottsdale, but if you recognize him, it's probably not from the grocery store.

Dillingham has been in 30 films and 65 commercials, plus a dozen television shows in just the last nine months, including next week's finale of the hit NBC family drama.

He said he enjoyed meeting folks from the show, including star Milo Ventimiglia.

"Super nice. Really down to Earth," he said, describing the actor. "I was in the makeup trailer getting hair and makeup done. I feel this slap on my shoulder and I look up. He's like, 'Hi man. How are you doing? I'm Milo. Good to work with you.' So it was awesome."
