Chicago Fire: Wow Me (3X02)
Another week of getting tissues before you watch because this episode was heart pounding and beautiful. Just having a mix is not good. So let’s break down last night’s episode.
Severide officially moves in with Dawson and Casey and returns to Firehouse 51 but in true CFD fashion it never stops as the team helps a family in a rescue situation. But in private he continues to mourn the loss of Shay and he drinks alone at a bar, reaches out to Lindsay and double takes when he sees Brett, who bears a passing resemblance to the woman she replaced.
Dawson, too, still feels Shay’s absence even while she prepares for her new assignment at the rival firehouse led by Welch. Under the guise of helping Dawson to train, Casey surprises her on the roof of 51 with an engagement ring. This time she accepts his proposal without delay and that night they make love. Dawson’s high is short lived, though – Welch blindsides her by accepting a different candidate to his firehouse, in effect rejecting her transfer. His move devastates her – Dawson could wait months until another transfer opportunity arises.
Mills seizes an opportunity of his own and finally locates his father’s family in Joliet. He requests to meet his grandfather, Leonard, but the family member who answers the door remains skeptical and sends Mills away. It feels like a blow to Mills’ mission, until his mom confronts him at the station and reveals that his dad’s family disapproved of their marriage. The racist undercurrent angers Mills and when Leonard agrees to see him, Mills harshly declines.
At the same time, during a daring upside down rescue involving a pulley system and an oxygen mask, Mills suddenly passes out. The team scrambles to lift him out and Mills emerges unscathed, blaming an equipment malfunction except the equipment tests out fine. So what happened to Mills down there? A bit bizarre though the fact that you were upside down makes a lot of sense. You’re not Spider-Man Mills!
Back at the station, Herrmann invites Cruz and Mouch to join the Molly’s team, with one request that in order to expand Molly’s revenue and franchise that they make a food truck. Because nothing says expanding your business like making a food truck. I mean look what happened in the movie Chef (on Blu-Ray right NOW!). Luckily for them, Herrmann loves the idea. I need me some food truck food right about now.
Although Severide manages to appear normal during his shifts, he hits a low point at Molly’s when he drinks too much and invites Brett out to continue drinking at another bar. Herrmann cuts him off and offers to hail him a cab, but Severide declines and ends up sleeping at the station. Later, he misses a date with Lindsay and chases her down afterwards to apologize. Lindsay kindly says she will not wait for him again and Severide breaks down as Lindsay holds him and lets out crying. Damn I feel for you man. But things are about to get shaky as the rivaly between firehouses breaks loose. Here’s a sneak peek and don’t let your heart stop racing.

When Will ‘Chicago Fire’ Return? Here’s When Season 12 Kicks Off Filming

Fans have been patiently waiting for the 12th season of Chicago Fire, which was announced back in April by NBC.
The network renewed all three of the One Chicago shows at the time, including Chicago PD for season 11 and Chicago Med for season 9.
Typically, new seasons of the dramas would’ve started in September as part of the network’s fall lineup, however, production on the shows was significantly delayed due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. The writers’ strike ended a bit before the actors’ strike, which meant that the writing staff was able to get back to work penning the scripts in October, however, things remained at a standstill until the SAG-AFTRA union negotiated a promising contract with the studios and allowed actors to get back to making shows and movies.
Thankfully, with the strikes officially over, the shows are back in business.
According to a Chicago Fire Extras post on Facebook, the drama set at Firehouse 51 will be kicking off filming on Monday, Nov. 27!
And that means that we’re on track to get new episodes of the 12th season in 2024 as a premiere date has been announced as Wednesday, January 17.
With Chicago Fire back in business, it’s safe to say the sister shows are following suit—and we’ll have new episodes to watch sooner rather than later.
CBS already unveiled its lineup for regularly scheduled programming, beating out all the other networks to the announcement, but if theirs is anything to go by, new content will be landing as soon as February. Some of your favorite sitcoms and dramas on CBS, including the NCIS franchise, Ghosts, and the FBI shows, will all be kicking off after the Super Bowl.

And the good news is that Taylor Kinney’s Kelly Severide is making a comeback after a ten-month hiatus. Back in January, the actor announced a personal leave of absence from the series, but fans are surely eager to see him back on the firefighter drama once again!
