What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the NBC television network, the Chicago Med TV show stars Nick Gehlfuss, Oliver Platt, S. Epatha Merkerson, Brian Tee, Steven Weber, Marlyne Barrett, Dominic Rains, Kristen Hager, Yaya DaCosta, and Jessy Schram. The story follows the doctors, nurses, and staff of the city’s state-of-the-art trauma center, Gaffney Chicago Medical Center, through the chaos of their day-to-day lives. As a team, they confront the Windy City’s most critical medical cases and challenging ethical dilemmas with courage, compassion, and cutting-edge medicine. The series, which weaves cutting-edge medicine with the personal drama that comes with working in a high-intensity environment, sometimes features crossovers with Chicago Fire and Chicago PD.
Season Eight Ratings
The eighth season of Chicago Med averaged a 0.57 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 6.44 million viewers. Compared to season seven, that’s down by 22% in the demo and down by 5% in viewership in the live+same day ratings (which 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. Though there can be other economic factors involved, the higher-rated shows usually get renewed and the lower-rated ones get cancelled. Find out how Chicago Med stacks up against other NBC TV shows.
Chicago Med has been renewed for a ninth season which will debut on January 17, 2024. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will NBC cancel or renew Chicago Med for season nine? The last time that this show was renewed, in 2020, it was given a three-season renewal. That order has now run out, but I have no doubt that Chicago Med will be renewed for a ninth season, and likely more than that. I’ll update this page with breaking developments.

What do you think? Are you glad the Chicago Med TV show has been renewed for a ninth season? How would you feel if NBC had cancelled this TV series instead?
This is my favorite series. If it is cancelled I’ll have nothing else to watch as all other TV shows are inferior. TV writers are not what they once were.
Well it definitely can’t end the series with an episode like “Cuevas” telling Goodwin she’s staying at Chicago Med… what a boring ending to the episode. If you’re gunna fully end a series it should go out with a bang. This being said, there must now in fact be at least one more season!!!
I want Chicago Med and Chicago Fire need a renewal I’m a great fan I hate repeats come on guys your losing your fans one by one now
I love the show, I am so irritated that these holiday specials are being aired in its time slot.
