When Do ‘Chicago Med,’ ‘Chicago Fire,’ and ‘Chicago P.D.’ Return from Hiatus?
When do Chicago Med, Chicago Fire, and Chicago P.D., return from the mid-season break?
All three shows that comprise NBC’s ever-popular “One Chicago Wednesday” return from hiatus on Wednesday, January 4th. As usual, Chicago Med airs at 8/7c, Chicago Fire at 9/8c, and Chicago P.D. 10/9c.
This is a pretty short hiatus for the three popular shows, thankfully, especially considering where the previous episodes left off. With Chicago Med, we saw a major character exit with Brian Tee, which thankfully ended in a happily ever after with April.
For Chicago Fire, we left off with Stella and Carver in danger after a bomb exploded. And Chicago P.D. left us feeling a little unsettled, wondering what would be next for the team.
That series also so a recent major exit with Jesse Lee Soffer.
Here are the episode descriptions for each series when they return:
Chicago Med Season 8 Episode 10 Description:
Charles and Cuevas help an elderly patient and her developmentally disabled grandson; Halstead treats a swimmer with a heart condition; Marcel considers using the OR 2.0 for surgery; Asher and Lieu search for a pregnant woman lost in the woods.
Chicago Fire Season 11 Episode 10 Description:
Detective Pryma’s case comes to an explosive end with Kidd and Carver’s lives in danger; Brett installs an infant safe surrender box at 51; Violet is determined to take Emma down.
Chicago P.D. Season 10 Episode 10 Description:
A series of brutal home invasion robberies finds the team paired with Detective Borkowski, an old friend of Ruzek’s, to work the case; things get complicated for Torres when it becomes clear Borkowski has a vastly different policing style.
