Ahead of Winter Break, NBC Confirms When A Chicago will return with all-new episodes. NBC and Wolf Entertainment’s Windy City franchise is currently in the midst of interesting stories for the people at Firehouse 51, Intelligence Unit and Gaffney ER. That said, as with Rede TV’s annual programming, a mandatory break is approaching. This allows the cast and crew to take a break from rigorous filming and prepare a few episodes in advance for their eventual return. Before this hiatus, however, NBC already revealed when the One Chicago shows will return with new stories in 2025.
In a new report from Deadlinethe A Chicago Franchise Set to Return on Wednesday, January 8, 2025. Dick Wolf’s shows will simply resume their respective timeslots with Chicago Middle season 10, Chicago Fire season 13, and Chicago Police season 12 airs at 8pm, 9pm and 10pm respectively. Unfortunately, there’s no word yet on what the show’s return storylines will be, but it’s safe to say they’ll be tied into the winter finals next month.
Why the second half of Chicago’s current season is exciting
A Chicago crossover is happening
At the moment, Chicago Middle season 10, Chicago Fire season 13, and Chicago Police season 12 is at an exciting point in its narrative. After a particularly changeable year during the short 2023-2024 TV season, defined by several big departures, including from longtime cast members like Eammon Walker’s Wallace Boden and Tracy Spiridakos’ Hailey Uptonthe franchise is starting to find its feet again. All the shows have new cast members, who are slowly adapting. When One Chicago returns in 2025, it’s safe to say they’ve all found their place on their respective shows.
Additionally, it has also been confirmed that there will be a One Chicago crossover in 2025. The last one was half a decade ago, and a lot has changed in the universe since then. It would be exciting to see old and new faces mingle as Chicago’s top first responders work on a single crisis. This is something fans looked forward to every year during One Chicago’s early years, so it’s great to bring this tradition back.
Our Take on the Direction of One Chicago in 2025
NBC has not yet renewed One Chicago for the 2025-2026 season
In the past, A Chicago is usually awarded a multi-season renewal. However, that’s not the case this year, as all shows are only guaranteed to run until this year. There’s always the possibility that NBC will eventually greenlight more seasons, but for now, Chicago Middle season 10, Chicago Fire season 13, and Chicago Police the narrative of season 12 must take into account that this could be the last year on air. If it’s worth it, however, the broadcaster should see how the entire year goes, especially with several new developments in the universe, before making a decision.
