Dick Wolf's long list of impressive procedural ventures includes some of television's best, but right now there may be no more exciting franchise in the genre than One Chicago. However, after a successful run in all three series' latest installments in late 2024, a winter break put each show on hiatus and left fans desperate for more.
Well, wait no longer, as One Chicago Wednesdays are returning very soon. Perhaps the favorite of the three for many, and the show sandwiched in the middle of programming, is Chicago Fire, with the ups, downs, and in-betweens of life at Firehouse 51 proving endlessly entertaining. So, without further ado, here's a look at where you can watch the return of Chicago Fire.

Watch the 'Chicago Fire' Season 13 Midseason Premiere Trailer
With the winter break on the horizon, Chicago Fire fans were left with the above teaser for episode 9, "A Favor", which gives a teasing glimpse into what the return to Firehouse 51 might entail. After an explosive first half for Season 13, this promo promises even greater odds stacked against the crew and even manages to explain Kelly Severide's (Taylor Kinney) absence from the mid-season finale, with his work trip to Michigan finally over. A logline for the coming episode reads:
"Cruz's past comes back to haunt him; Severide prepares to teach an arson class at the academy; Mouch searches for a victim's next of kin."
Excitingly, the return of One Chicago marks just three weeks until the hotly-anticipated crossover event, which will see all three shows join forces in a three-hour extravaganza. A synopsis for the crossover reads:
"When a gas explosion rocks a high-rise, Chicago’s first responders come out in force to rescue hundreds of civilians. The calamity beneath the surface, however, sends our heroes on a race to save 40 people trapped deep underground, including two of their own."
