NBC’s freshman "Chicago Fire" has been a late bloomer. The firefighter drama did not premiere until October. It started off slow but held onto its lead-in and did just well enough in its first few airings to earn a back 9 order.

The Dick Wolf-produced series then kept steady and started to grow, hitting series highs earlier this month. Now it has been given an order for one extra episode, bringing its freshman season to 23 episodes.

That's cool, I really like this show.

NBC has tacked another hour on to the freshman season of drama "Chicago Fire", bringing its order to 24 episodes.

The network first ordered one extra episode last week, followed by another episode pickup yesterday.
