Chicago Fire
An edge-of-your-seat view into the lives of everyday heroes committed to one of America's noblest professions. For the firefighters, rescue squad and paramedics of Chicago Firehouse 51, no occupation is more stressful or dangerous, yet so rewarding and exhilarating. These courageous men and women are among the elite who forge headfirst into danger when everyone else is running the other way and whose actions make the difference between life and death.

What people are saying
Updated nightlyPeople are pretty mixed on this show, with many feeling its story has grown formulaic after so many seasons. Taylor Kinney’s Kelly Severide is consistently noted as a bright spot, but newer faces like Dermot Mulroney’s character haven’t landed well at all. While the humor still works when it shows up, the consensus is that it’s become a predictable, comfort-food drama about firefighters, with a lot of the original cast magic gone.
