Are you wondering why there has been no update regarding the episodes of NBC’s cherished One Chicago series for the week of May 25–31? Many fans are curious about whether the shows are currently on hiatus and wondering about the primary reasons behind this unexpected programming interruption. There has yet to be an announcement for Chicago PD, Med, or Fire’s new episodes.
Here’s a quick breakdown of why NBC’s hit Wednesday dramas are currently off the air.
Why NBC won’t air any new episodes for Chicago PD, Fire & Med on May 28
The reason there will be no new episodes of Chicago PD, Fire, and Med is that all three shows aired their season finales on Wednesday, May 21, 2025.
The concluding episodes were notably dramatic and filled with suspense, providing a compelling wrap-up to the series, and fans can still look forward to the return of their beloved shows in the upcoming fall season. NBC has confirmed that Chicago Fire will return for Season 14, Chicago PD for Season 13, and Chicago Med for Season 11 in the 2025–2026 television season. However, reports have suggested that each season may have a reduced episode count, and certain actors could feature less often in the upcoming episodes.
Chicago Fire Season 13’s finale episode, titled “It Had to End This Way,” aired on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, at 9 P.M. The new finale episode of Chicago PD’s Season 12 is titled “Vows” and aired on the same day but at 10 P.M. Chicago Med Season 10’s finale, titled “…Don’t You Cry,” aired at 8 P.M. All three episodes were available the next day on Peacock, Thursday, May 22, 2025.
While they wait for new episodes of Chicago PD, Fire, and Med, viewers can revisit past episodes and catch up on any missed moments by streaming the series by subscribing to NBC and Peacock.
