If you were not excited before to see Chicago Fire season 14 premiere on NBC, let’s just say we have more news that might be up your alley!

This week, the folks at the network confirmed that the firehouse drama will arrive starting on Wednesday, October 1 at 9:00 p.m. Eastern. It is wedged in the middle of the One Chicago lineup as it has always been, so there is no fundamental change when it comes to that.

So what is going to be different about the next Chicago Fire chapter? The only thing that we can say for now is that you’ve got a turnaround with Carver and Ritter both leaving the team. We know that this is a show that has endured a lot of departures over the years but at the same time, we do not tend to think that it ever gets easier.

As for other stories, we tend to think that Stella Kidd’s pregnancy has to be front and center given that this is something quite different than we’ve seen on the show before. They have tackled adoption and parenting, but what does it mean to have a pregnant person within the squad? How does that change Stella’s perspective and relationship with Severide? There is a lot of ground to be explored here and alongside Ruzek and Burgess over on Chicago PD, we would argue that this is one of the most important couples of the entire franchise. We certainly hope that there are a number of opportunities to service their story.

Hopefully at some point in September, we are going to see a new preview for Chicago Fire, one that sets the stage further for what is ahead.
