'Chicago Fire,' 'Chicago Med,' 'Chicago PD,' & Every 'Law & Order' Show's Rumored New Episode Count Amid the Actors' Strike

The good news is that NBC’s biggest hits – Law & Order, Law & Order: SVU, Law & Order: Organized Crime, Chicago Med, Chicago PD, and Chicago Fire, (aka every Dick Wolf-produced TV show on NBC) – were all renewed earlier this year.

The bad news is that, because of the writers’ and actors’ strikes, shooting has been greatly impacted. As you may know, no new episodes of any of these TV shows have aired in the 2023-2024 season so far. We don’t know when new episodes might air, as the actors’ strike is still ongoing.

However, a new report has now been released with new info about presumed episode counts and start dates.

Chicago Med, Chicago PD, and Chicago Fire are arguably three of NBC’s absolute best TV shows on the air right now.

Unfortunately, the One Chicago shows are subject to a lot of actor exits throughout the year due to the sizes of their casts.

Some fan favorite characters have exited all three shows during the 2022-2023 season.

Unfortunately, most of the show’s exits have come from Chicago Med, with 2 from Chicago PD and 1 from Chicago Fire.

Chicago Med is full of big talent – and even bigger earnings.

The medical TV drama, co-created by Law & Order creator Dick Wolf, follows the emergency department (ED) doctors and nurses of Gaffney Chicago Medical Center as they work to nurse patients back to health and save their lives.

It also features crossovers with the other Chicago-based shows in the franchise, including Chicago Fire and Chicago P.D.

As of 2020, the show was renewed for 6th, 7th and 8th seasons, with Season 7 premiering back in September of 2021, and coming to an end at the end of May 2022. Season 8 kicked off in September 2022, and wrapped up in December 2022. NBC is reportedly aiming for a March 2024 release date for Season 9.

We’ve rounded up the main cast of Chicago Med, and ranked them according to their estimated net worth.

'One Chicago' & Every 'Law & Order' Show Renewed, But 1 Will Have Shortened Season

Law & Order, Law & Order: SVU, Law & Order: Organized Crime, Chicago Med, Chicago PD, and Chicago Fire, (aka every Dick Wolf-produced TV show on NBC) were renewed earlier in 2023.

A statement was released, confirming the news at the time.

“I’m pleased to continue my four-decade relationship with Universal Television and NBC,” Wolf said in a statement. “All six shows being picked up again is the ultimate accolade to our incredible casts, producers and writers. I’d also like to thank our loyal fans who have kept our NBC shows on the air for what will be a cumulative 84 seasons.”

It’s presumed that each of the renewed shows will have at least 22 episodes, however one of the hits only received a partial season order, meaning there will only be 13 episodes.
