NBC Has Yet To Renew One Chicago For The 2025-2026 Season

In the past,One Chicagois usually awarded with a multi-season renewal. That isn’t the case this year, however, as all shows are only guaranteed to run until this current year. There’s always a possibility that NBC will eventually announce greenlighting more seasons, but for now,Chicago Medseason 10,Chicago Fireseason 13, andChicago PDseason 12’s storytelling should take into consideration that this could be their final year on air.
