NBC has a reason for not airing new episodes of theOne Chicagofranchise tonight (March 12). This hiatus is frustrating because all three shows ended on strong cliffhangers that make it difficult to wait to see what happens next. First,Chicago Medhad a miniOne Chicagocrossoverduring an intense episode in whichChicago Fire’s Mouch helped rescue Ripley (Luke Mitchell) after he was trapped in a well. Ripley was unconscious by the time Mouch and the rescue team got him out, but he opened his eyes when Hannah said she loved him.

Afterward,One Chicagocontinued with an equally intense and tragicChicago Fireepisode n which Pascal’s wife died in a car accident en route to celebrate her 15th anniversary with her husband. This episode included anotherstrong Steven Weber performance, as Weber’s Dean Archer had to be the one to tell Pascal that his wife was gone. Finally,Chicago PDnot only featured Chapman’s return but also ended with Voight swearing to take Reid down after learning Reid was in bed with drug dealer Jesus Otero. These exciting developments will continue after the hiatus ends.

Why There’s No New One Chicago Episodes Tonight (June 20, 2025)

NBC Announced A Three-Week Hiatus At The End Of The Last Episodes

Sadly, the preview trailer for the next new episodes in the franchise announced there would be a hiatus before they aired. While it is frustrating to have to wait, it is unsurprising, given the time of year.During the spring months, network TV shows often take short hiatuses to ensure that the shows have enough episodes to last until mid-May,when most programs wrap up their seasons. Additionally, the March Madness basketball tournament occurs in mid-March of each year.

It is unclear what else NBC may air in place of new episodes of theOne Chicagofranchisein the two remaining weeks before the shows return. It will likely air other reruns, though it may offer encore broadcasts of other shows to try to gain a larger audience. Conversely, the network might air specials in this time slot over the next two weeks.

When Will New Episodes Of Chicago Fire, PD, & Med Release?

New Episodes Aren’t Scheduled For Several Weeks

Frustratingly, this hiatus is somewhat longer than previous breaks have been. While it is not as long as the mid-season hiatus from December to January,One Chicago’s latest hiatus has the show off the air for three weeks, with the next new episode airing onMarch 26, 2025. Thus, it will be almost April before audiences will be able to find out what happens next in their favoriteOne Chicagoshows.

Every episode that has been aired thus far of each of theOne Chicagoshows is available to stream on Peacock, and older episodes are also available.

Every episode that has been aired thus far of each of theOne Chicagoshows is available to stream on Peacock, and older episodes are also available. Thus, the audience can watch or rewatch episodes conveniently throughout the hiatus. The break, therefore, offers those who haven’t yet seen the entire season to fill in gaps in their understanding of the plot and characters while waiting for new episodes to air.
