CHICAGO PD

District 21 of the Chicago Police Department is made up of two distinctly different groups. There are the uniformed cops who patrol the beat and go head to head with the city’s street crimes. And there’s the Intelligence Unit, the team that combats the city’s major offenses – organized crime, drug trafficking, high profile murders and beyond. Leading the Intelligence team is Sergeant Hank Voight (Jason Beghe), a man not against skirting the law in the pursuit of justice. Demanding and tough, only those who can take the heat survive under Voight’s command. Take Detective Antonio Dawson (Jon Seda) – despite his troubled history with his boss, Dawson has ambitions of running the unit… so if that means facing off against Voight every day, he’ll persevere. From the street cops with dreams of moving up to the elite crew who are already in, “life on the job” is a daily challenge. The enormous responsibilities that come with the territory take an emotional toll, as we’ll find when we follow the personal lives of our characters outside the walls of District 21.

From Emmy-winning producer Dick Wolf and the team behind Chicago Fire, comes Chicago PD, a gripping, character-driven new police drama about those who put it all on the line to serve and protect. Chicago PD is produced by Universal Television and Wolf Films. Executive Producers/Writers are Dick Wolf, Matt Olmstead, Michael Brandt, and Derek Haas. Peter Jankowski and Danielle Gelber exec-produce. Joe Chappelle exec produces and directs.

I must say that I am really enjoying this show. I had my doubts before it premiered but I am riveted week after week. I was shocked as hell that the one officer got shot like that in the pilot. I did not see that coming at all.

Last night's ep. was equally good and a great way to finish a climatic story.

I am loving the chemistry between Sophia and Jesse.

I love Dawsey. Wondering how long their romance can last. I like that female cop on Chicago PD (whatever her name is) but she's not very believable as a cop. I mean Shay and Dawson are both pretty women on Chicago Fire, but this chick looks like a super model. It's very Charlie's Angels.

Really? I too like her as a cop but I wouldn't call her model-esque. It took me seeing her in motion to think that she was pretty and now I can't get enough. I really loved her dressed down look when she got all glammed up fora night out on the town with her girls.

I like them too and I am happy they finally got together. I could not stand her with that one guy during S1, bleh.

About what in particular? I feel so bad for Jay and I'm loving the development of his back story. Same for Sophia Bush's character. They're adding little layers at a time and I can't wait to see what we learn next. Hating the main guy's son. What a jerk! I hope he gets killed off soon. Can you tell how awful I am about even remember most of the character's names? I don't know what it is, but I don't think of any of them by name ever. Just associate them with each other. I have to do better. Starting with Jay. wub.png

    • I'm hoping that the new studio might have more space, meaning extra sets could be permanently erected. Perhaps the current  set issues are due to limited space available at Television City as it shuts down for the redevelopment. But if more space means spending more $$$ we might be stuck with the current situation no matter where they move.
    • Thanks @P.J. If my math is correct, Jordan Clarke runs were 1983-1987, 1989-1993, 1997-end.
    • I was/am mainlining both the Dream Season and Season 7 of KL together, since that was the year of their big creative swap. That's the most I can take of Dallas consecutively. But I've been very preoccupied with other shows and work IRL and I need to get back to it after a long break from my Knots binge.
    • Wk 1 95/96 MSW moves to Thurs, Cybill takes the Sunday slot. Thurs 8-9pm NBC Friends #3 20.5/33 The Single Guy #6 19.2/30 CBS Murder She Wrote #55 9.3/15 ABC Charlie Grace #74 7.6/12 FOX Living Single # 78 7.2/12 The Crew #80 7.0/11 Sunday 8-9pm NBC Mad about You # 15 14.6/23 Hope & Gloria #35 11.7/18 ABC Lois & Clark # 38 11.4/18 CBS Cybill #49 9.8/15 Almost Perfect #65 8.1/12 FOX Space Above & Beyond (2nd hr of 2hr episode) #51 9.5/15 60 Minutes was #19 so a lot of viewers didn't stay for Cybill. On Sunday, Sept. 24, CBS finished third on the night, and its performance among 18 -49 year olds was worse than it was with the older skewing Murder, She Wrote in the time period last year.  So moving MSW was a foolish move at that point. It was compatible with 60 Minutes and would probably have finished Top 20-25 for the week. They should have left Sunday alone and concentrated on other nights..
    • I’ve been watching Knots and FC rather compulsively for a while now. Currently in fall 1983 with both. I had Dallas in there, too, but I am rather shocked at how stale that show gets after Jock’s death. Meanwhile, I can spend hours in the vineyards and in the cul-de-sac.
    • What will actually change though? Does this mean the sets will be different too? Or how exactly is this gonna look like to the viewers? 
    • I'm not sure Passions is the model to emulate here.
    • Passions had Chad sleeping with his cousin nephew Vincent, ironically played by Daphne Duplaix (disguised as Valerie)

    • @Errol confirmed JFP is back in a non-producing role.  
    • Same tbh. His brother got all the attention as he got older and hotter but Eric I like best. I need to get back to this show.
