Chicago PD season 11 premiere date: Any optimism for January?
We don’t think that we are creating some sort of big-time, shattering reveal here, but it would be nice to see Chicago PD season 11 premiere as soon as possible. How could we not? The police drama has been off the air since May and while the writers are back at work, there is no clear indicator as to when we are actually going to see it back.
With all of this in mind, is there any light at the end of the tunnel? We would say so, just as we’d add that it is tied in some ways to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike that is past 100 days. Performers across the country have fought repeatedly in order to get a fair deal and, if nothing else, it does feel like they are somewhat closer to it today. There are talks between them and the streamers / studios tomorrow, and if those go well through the rest of the week, there is at least a chance that we could actually see a deal struck by early November.
It is the latter that is incredibly important now to a show like Chicago PD. Think about it like this — in order for the cast and crew to be back on the air in January, there likely needs to be an episode or two in the can before the Thanksgiving holiday. That would then also allow them to get another couple down presumably before Christmas, and entering the new year with four installments filmed is a recipe for some success.
However, if filming gets pushed until mid-November or even early December, everything becomes a little more murky. This is why the onus at this point has to 100% fall on the corporate powers-that-be to give the actors what they deserve.
Rest assured that no matter when Chicago PD comes back, there is a hope that it will resolve a lot of the big stories from the end of season 10. That includes, of course, that crazy Ruzek cliffhanger!
When do you think we are going to be seeing Chicago PD season 11 premiere over on NBC?
