"Chicago Fire" Season 14 Preview

Fall TV Preview 2025: Chicago Fire
Wednesday, Oct. 1, at 9/8c (NBC)


How will our favorite #OneChicago besties Mouch and Herrmann handle their new power dynamic in Season 14 now that Mouch has taken over as lieutenant?

Showrunner Andrea Newman says the new situation will require some adjustment, which will bring about “some of the biggest challenges to that friendship.”



Ultimately, it’s Herrmann who will struggle the most with the new world order, as he deals with his own issues, which will add even more fuel to the flames of that friendship. (Yes, pun intended!)

Fans of the show know that Herrmann has already had his fair share of rough patches, but according to Newman, Season 14 will deliver “one of his most challenging personal crises he’s ever dealt with… and how much Mouch can help, or can’t help, is a big part of it.”



On the bright side, the layoffs and brownouts hitting Firehouse 51 will actually light a “fire under everybody’s ass,” the EP previews, and will set up some soapy fun as surprise visitors pass through to lend a hand.




BONUS SPOILER!:

Newman says the #OneChicago team is planning on delivering mini-crossovers between two shows in the franchise “a bunch of times” this season, with Novak “crossing over a bunch with Med for intriguing reasons.”
