‘Chicago PD’ season 2 spoilers: Sophia Bush coy on Lindsay’s future

“Chicago PD” wrapped up its 2014 story on Wednesday night, but it still feels as though there is just as much intrigue (and questions) out there now that there was a matter of days ago.

For example, we still do not have a whole lot more in the way of details regarding the future of Erin Lindsay. Does getting appointed to a task force mean great things for her career to? Sure, but it puts her regular employer in a strange position. Without her in the police department, it doesn’t feel like the same show. Given what happened to Burgess in Wednesday’s episode, things are even more in a precarious position than usual.

Sophia Bush, obviously doing her part to keep intrigue high leading into the upcoming finale, played coy on her future in a series of posts on Twitter after the episode aired. Given the promotional strategy of NBC, it seems almost assured that she will be back at some point. How could #WomenCrushWednesday work without her being a main player on the show? The network has placed her all over those posters!

We continue to contend that this is one of the all-familiar temporary shakeups that a crime show does to keep things from being too predictable. Still, it does pose an interesting question: How do you keep a character like Lindsay deeply involved with the series, while also showing that she is working her way up the career ladder? At a certain point, it gets unrealistic to say that she will be in the same exact position for too long.

“Chicago PD” will return to NBC with new episodes next year, and we will almost surely have some more updates before then.
