However, unlike the others, NBC has new episodes of several original scripted shows ready to go.

Chicago Fire fans have been patiently waiting almost a month for new episodes.
That wait could pay off in a big way with some dramatic storylines over the next few weeks.
As a reminder, Chicago Fire Season 12 was shortened due to the Hollywood strikes. This means we only get 13 new episodes this time, as opposed to 22+ in a regular season.
NBC has four more new episodes of Chicago Fire that debut in May, including a season finale that will likely include another cliffhanger.
The good news is that there are four consecutive weeks of new content, meaning One Chicago fans won’t have to worry about repeat episodes for a while.
Chicago Fire Season 13 has also been ordered. So, new episodes for that season will air in the fall of 2024.
Chicago Fire spoilers for upcoming episodes
On May 1, a new episode called The Wrong Guy debuts on NBC at 9/8c.

While midseason hiatuses aren't exactly new for any network TV show, this time around fans of the One Chicago universe had to endure two major hiatuses in one season. First, viewers had to wait for Chicago Fire to return from February 28 to March 20, and then, just 3 episodes later, the show went on hiatus again.
Fortunately, the drought is almost over as the latest episode of the series is set to premiere on Wednesday, May 1 on NBC.
Is Chicago Fire on Hiatus?
The last episode Chicago Fire fans saw on their screens was the 9th episode of the 12th season, titled Something About Her. After that, the show took another month-long hiatus, only to return for the final time this season on Wednesday, May 1 with an episode titled The Wrong Guy.

Chicago Fire Season 12 has added a new firefighter who will appear in the final episodes this year.
The show took a long spring hiatus but finally returns on May 1 with new episodes and a new cast member.
Rome Flynn ended his run as firefighter Jake Gibson, with the character failing to finish the season.
Gibson entered the picture with a troubled past, including accidentally killing someone in the boxing ring. His demons caught up with him, and a drug problem caused Gibson to leave Firehouse 51.
That character was added as a replacement for Blake Gallo (Alberto Rosende), who left Chicago to spend time with his newly-found family.
Gallo had been a fan-favorite on Chicago Fire, so it was a difficult task to replace him. The next man up now enters the revolving door at this particular firehouse.

After the success of One Chicago, a franchise co-produced by Wolf Entertainment and NBCUniversal that began with the firefighting procedural Chicago Fire and expanded into several spinoffs, ABC also decided to try its hand at franchising.
In partnership with Shondaland, the network turned Grey's Anatomy into a TV franchise, first with the spinoff Private Practice, also a medical drama, and then with the action-drama Station 19, which, like Chicago Fire, follows the employees of a fictional fire station as they navigate their personal and professional lives. The only difference is that the action moves from Chicago to Seattle, and the plot is much more action-packed and thrilling.
And so, Station 19 has been coming to the small screens of ABC viewers for six full years now. In addition, Season 7, as announced last December, is the final one, so we don't have many episodes left. At the same time, of course,...

The procedural shows have been popular with viewers for many years. Projects dedicated to the work of firefighters and other emergency personnel offer a 50-minute dose of drama and action.
Chicago Fire creators Michael Brandt and Derek Haas have been writing together since the 1990s. They sold their first script while Brandt was working as an assistant editor on Robert Rodriguez's The Faculty in 1998, but their first known project came five years later, a Fast and Furious sequel. Another famous film of the duo is the western 3:10 to Yuma with Russell Crowe and Christian Bale.
So, Brandt and Haas definitely know a thing or two about quality scripts.

The NBCUniversal streamer continues to make small, but steady climbs in its quest for streaming survival.
Comcast’s flagship streaming service Peacock has been on a slow but steady climb since launching in 2020. While still amongst the smaller platforms from major media companies, it is no longer an easily ignored also-ran, seemingly fighting for scraps as the streaming world threatened to leave it behind. Now boasting a robust offering of live sports, hit movies, and increasingly compelling original series, following the first quarter of 2024, Peacock added 3 million new customers to cap its year-over-year growth at 55%. During the same period in 2023, the streamer reported having 22 million paying customers, now that total sits at 34 million.
Key Details: Peacock added 3 million customers in Q1 and 12 million year-over-year. The streamer brought in $1.1 billion in revenue during the first three months of 2024. However, it is still operating at a $639M quarterly loss. Sign Up $5.99+ / month peacocktv.

Chicago Fire Season 12 is quickly approaching its end. Only a few episodes remain before the long summer hiatus.
This is a shorter season of the hit firefighter drama – mostly because of the two Hollywood strikes that delayed production.
Even though most fans feel like the show just returned, it has been on a long spring break before the final episodes from the current season.
The summer hiatus will feel even longer due to the delays in the past season, but at least NBC already ordered Chicago Fire Season 13.
Many dramas around the television landscape have been canceled, so at least Chicago Fire fans can rest easy knowing the show is returning in the fall of 2024.
But before that new season begins, we have some important upcoming episodes to close out Chicago Fire Season 12.

The upcoming 10th episode in the season, titled “The Wrong Guy,” has the following synopsis: Severide steps in as ranking officer at 51; Kidd fights to save her Girls on Fire programme; Cruz’s family is threatened when someone from Javi’s past resurfaces.
The new season began with four weeks of new episodes after it premiered on January 17, 2024. Since then, there’s been a very inconsistent schedule of reruns vs. new episodes.

Hey, "Chicago Fire" fans. We're back with some unfortunate news I'm afraid. Yeah, it turns out that the folks over at NBC currently has a 3-week delay set on Chicago Fire. So, there will be no new episode 10 of this season 12 tonight, April 10, 2024, Wednesday night, April 17, 2024 and Wednesday night, April 24, 2024. According to one of our sources, NBC is currently scheduled to finally air the new episode 10 on Wednesday night, May 1, 2024 in its usual, 8 pm central standard time slot. So, certainly be sure to remember that very important date and time if you can. We did find out what CBS is filling Chicago Fire's empty time slot with during this 3-week delay. According to the TV guide listings, NBC is serving up some repeat episodes of Chicago Fire. Tonight, they're going to re-air the 4th episode of this season 12 titled, "The Little Things." CBS' official description for this repeat episode...

The month of April seemingly sailed by with far too many moderate releases, and the month ends this weekend with more of the same. Read on for Gold Derby’s box office preview.
Italian filmmaker Luca Guadagnino returns with the sexy tennis drama “Challengers,” starring the powerhouse trio of Zendaya (“Euphoria”), Josh O’Connor (“The Crown”) and Mike Faist (“West Side Story”) as superstar tennis players who fall into a competitive love triangle. This is Zendaya’s first movie after “Dune: Part Two,” and it will be a real test for her as a box office star, since sports dramas can be hit or miss. “Challengers” really is riding on her popularity to avoid the pitfalls of the genre.
Tennis has had an especially tough time at the box office, as seen by Will Smith‘s Oscar-winning turn in the 2021 release “King Richard,” about the father of Venus and Serena Williams,...

Chicago P.D. Season 11 is coming to an end. There are only a few episodes left before the long summer hiatus begins.
The late start — exacerbated by two Hollywood strikes — means fewer episodes this season. Despite the shortened season, the final few episodes should be intense.
Most fans have already heard that this is the final season for Tracy Spiridakos. She plays Detective Hailey Upton and has already filmed her final scenes.
Mysteries surround the upcoming season finale, with some fans hoping Jesse Lee Soffer returns to play Detective Jay Halstead again.
Halstead last appeared early in Season 10, but the character’s exit left fans without closure in his relationship with Upton. Hopefully, the writers do a better job wrapping up Upton’s storylines.
The show must also address the serial killer case that Intelligence has failed to solve. It could lead to a dramatic resolution with the return of a character introduced earlier this season.

In the movie Dream Scenario, starring Nicholas Cage, a biology professor named Paul Matthews starts appearing in the nightmares of random people all over the country.
None of these people understand why, nor do they know anything about Paul beyond recognizing his unusual face -- which gives them flashbacks of the terrible dream.
Paul himself is perplexed because he has not intentionally done anything to these people, nor is he a Freddy Krueger-type monster who controls a higher plane of existence.
But when Paul becomes infamous for his cameo appearances in peoples' dreams, he begins to see scorn, fear, hatred, and eventually violence coming from people who hold him personally responsible for their nightmares.
As I finished Dream Scenario, I realized this is what some right-leaning celebrities must feel like.

With a string of mysterious murders at its center, "The Acolyte" is set to be the "Star Wars" equivalent of detective fiction -- although the show's first trailer also makes it clear that it won't forfeit any action for the sake of its mysteries. That first look features a martial arts-inspired face-off, a Force-fueled knife fight, and a forest showdown that begins with an ominous red lightsaber cutting through the trees.
According to series star Dafne Keen, who spoke with Entertainment Weekly about the new show earlier this month, "The Acolyte" isn't just trying to match the action sequences of past "Star Wars" shows; it's trying to beat them. "It was very much: We want to top the Darth Maul fight — the most iconic fight, I think, in the 'Star Wars' cinematic universe," Keen told EW.

Chicago Med hiatus: When does the show return and what should fans expect from the next new episode?
Chicago Med is still on an extended spring hiatus as the show takes a break before racing toward the season finale.
Some fans may already be upset that the One Chicago shows have taken such a long break during April, but new episodes are on the horizon.
As a reminder, two Hollywood strikes paused the production of the NBC dramas. It delayed the new seasons from premiering for many months.
When the shows finally returned in January, Chicago Med fans were reminded that Dr. Will Halstead (Nick Gehlfuss) had left the show.
Dr. Halstead’s final episode was the Season 8 finale, where he quit working at the hospital and traveled to Seattle. When he got off the plane, he was greeted by Dr. Natalie Manning (Torrey DeVitto) and her daughter.
Several new doctors have joined the fold on the Chicago Med cast this season, adding some freshness to the show.

Watching Chicago Fire has always felt nostalgic, even in the beginning.
The pacing, the dialogue, and the often unrealistic (but still highly entertaining) storylines are reminiscent of the daytime soap operas that you might remember from spending sick days off school at your grandma's house.
To be clear, that's the highest compliment a show could receive.
The thing about Chicago Fire is that it blends soapy tropes with all the best aspects of primetime TV and delivers a fun, emotional, steamy product as a result.
Who doesn't love a show that can make you laugh, cry, roll your eyes, and cringe all in the same episode?
Chicago Fire is fast-paced. The writers love to jam as much into an hour as they possibly can, and it works because it keeps us focused throughout the episode.
It's hard to find other shows that are similarly paced, but daytime soap operas come close.

Chicago Fire is one of the biggest NBC TV shows on the air today, but fans might be wondering why there’s no new episode tonight.
Unfortunately for One Chicago fans – which includes Chicago Med and Chicago Pd – the show has been on hiatus since April 3!
Keep reading to find out more…
The new season began with four weeks of new episodes after it premiered on January 17, 2024. Since then, there’s been a very inconsistent schedule of reruns vs. new episodes.
Unfortunately, there won’t be another new episode until May 1, 2024. The reason why the schedule is so on-and-off is because of the strikes that happened last year. Both the writers’ and actors’ guilds went on strikes, and filming for season 12 could not even take place until November 2023. As a result, Chicago Fire had to have a shortened season and the need for larger gaps between some episodes.
Episode 10 will air on May 1. The ep,...

Dr. Shaun Murphy’s story ends next month following ABC’s decision to cancel The Good Doctor after seven seasons.
The announcement to end the series with a truncated final season came out of the left field because the network was prepping a spinoff titled The Good Lawyer a year ago.
So, where did it all come crashing down for The Good Doctor?
The TV industry changed significantly following the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes, with networks making decisions that didn’t align with what we knew before the strikes.
For example, ABC debuted an entirely unscripted fall schedule because of the lack of scripted offerings due to the Hollywood work stoppage.
One of the biggest hits of the TV season remains The Golden Bachelor.
ABC’s priorities have changed

Chicago Fire has teased an intense episode focused on Kelly Severide coming up, and some spoilers have fleshed out the details.
Taylor Kinney returned during Chicago Fire Season 12 to continue playing the popular firefighter. He had gone on a leave of absence during Season 11, causing fans to worry he had left the show for good.
But Severide was back for the Season 12 premiere this winter, reuniting with his wife Stella Kidd (played by Miranda Rae Mayo).
Even though Severide still has an affinity for solving arons, he has committed to being more open about it with Kidd. The couple did have some stumbles earlier this season, but Stellaride appears to be on the same page now.
During one of the final episodes for Season 12, Severide will go missing again, but this time with one of the Firehouse 51 vehicles. What happened? We will soon find out.
