What’s This TV Show About?

A first-responder drama series airing on the NBC television network, Chicago Fire stars Taylor Kinney, David Eigenberg, Eamonn Walker, Christian Stolte, Joe Minoso, Miranda Rae Mayo, Daniel Kyri, Hanako Greensmith, and Kara Killmer. Jesse Spencer guests. This series revolves around the personal and professional lives of the firefighters, rescue squad, and paramedics of Chicago Firehouse 51.

Season 12 Ratings

The 12th season of Chicago Fire averaged a 0.49 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 6.31 million viewers. Compared to season 11, that’s down by 20% in the demo and down by 6% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (includes DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While these numbers don’t include further delayed or streaming viewing, they are a very good indicator of how a show is performing, especially when compared to others on the same channel. There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.
