What do you think? Are you glad that the Chicago Med TV show has been renewed for a sixth season? How would you feel if NBC had cancelled this TV series, instead?


I think that this show should be on at 1:00 with the rest of the soap operas. After all the time we have invested, it sucks now. A bunch of Drama Mamas.
I enjoy all three Chicago shows I hope they continue. Any idea what happens when the shows are pre empted? I’ve looked ahead and it looks like the episodes just skip on. Like next week old Chicago Med on but the next week I see Chicago fire skips an episode
Yes Yes Yes Renew
Yes I hope that chicago med will be renewed
