All three of the One Chicago shows – Chicago Fire, Chicago PD, and Chicago Med – are returning for additional seasons!
NBC has announced that all three shows are renewed for the 2026-27 television season, with the premieres expected to happen in Fall 2026.
Chicago Fire will return for its 15th season, Chicago PD will get its 14th season, and Chicago Med will continue with its 12th season.
The news of the renewal happened way earlier than usual for these shows and that might be signaling some good news for the future of the franchise.

Last year, NBC waited until the last minute to announce the shows getting renewed, with the announcement happening on May 5, 2025. The delay was because of negotiations on how to trim budgets for the shows, with all three shows getting their seasons trimmed from 22 to 21 episodes. All shows also lost some cast members due to budget cuts.
Deadline reports that “if the early pickup is any indication, the trims may not be as substantial this year. The number of episodes the three shows will produce next season is still TBD.”
NBC has canceled six shows in 2026 already and several others have thankfully been renewed. We have the full recap!
