The Return of Chicago Med, Fire, and P.D.

The wait is over for Chi-Hards. NBC’s One Chicago lineup returns October 1 with brand-new seasons of Chicago Fire (Season 14), Chicago P.D. (Season 13), and Chicago Med (Season 11). The trailer already teases that this fall will be packed with emotional shockwaves, dangerous missions, and a fair share of juicy drama.

Each show brings its own flavor of intensity, from life-or-death rescues to complex hospital cases to gritty police takedowns. Together, they create one of TV’s most addictive midweek lineups. The upcoming crossover energy also promises big surprises for longtime fans.

Firehouse 51 Faces New Challenges

The trailer wastes no time setting the stage for Chicago Fire. Firehouse 51 remains the heartbeat of the franchise, and Chief Dom Pascal (Dermot Mulroney) rallies his crew with an inspiring message. His words, “Let’s show this city how it’s done,” prepare viewers for another round of harrowing rescues and emotional choices.

But it isn’t just business as usual. Stella Kidd (Miranda Rae Mayo) meets Sal Vasquez (Brandon Larracuente), the newest recruit to the firehouse. His arrival is bound to shift dynamics within the tight-knit team. With Severide still fighting his own battles, Kidd may need to balance leadership, mentorship, and personal life more than ever.

Baby Bombshell at Gaffney Medical

Over at Chicago Med, emotions run even higher. The shocking Season 10 finale revealed that Dr. Hannah Asher (Jessy Schram) is pregnant. Yet the identity of the father remains shrouded in mystery. Fans are buzzing with speculation: is it her ex, Dr. Mitch Ripley (Luke Mitchell), or could it be Dr. Dean Archer (Steven Weber)?

The trailer adds fuel to the fire when Ripley confronts Hannah in a tense moment. “You’re pregnant? How could you not tell me?!” he demands. His reaction hints at a turbulent storyline ahead, where personal ties threaten to derail professional judgment. With medical crises already overwhelming the team, the baby-daddy mystery could be one of the season’s most gripping arcs.

Chicago P.D. Welcomes a New Face

Chicago P.D. doesn’t hold back either. Fans meet Eva Imani (Arienne Mandi), a fresh recruit joining Voight’s Intelligence Unit. She wastes no time sizing up the squad, calling them a “real Brady Bunch vibe.” But the stakes for Voight and his team are far from wholesome.

After the explosive events of Season 12, the Intelligence Unit is still fighting to regain its badges and reputation. Voight makes it clear in the trailer: “There are consequences to my team being benched: lives lost.” His determination signals that P.D. will lean heavily into themes of justice, redemption, and survival this year.

Why This Season Matters

What makes the One Chicago universe so addictive is the balance of heart and heroism. Fans don’t just tune in for daring rescues or tense interrogations — they come for the relationships, the moral struggles, and the sacrifices these heroes make.

This fall, Chicago Fire promises mentorship and new tensions within Firehouse 51. Chicago Med dives deep into Hannah’s shocking pregnancy storyline. Chicago P.D. explores loyalty, redemption, and the high price of justice with a new officer in the mix.
