These doctors are “in” — and will stay “in” for at least three more years. NBC has announced the Chicago Med TV show has been renewed for three more seasons — seasons six, seven, and eight — which will keep the medical drama series on the air through the 2022-23 broadcast network season.

Currently airing on Wednesday nights, Chicago Med stars Nick Gehlfuss, Yaya DaCosta, Torrey DeVitto, Brian Tee, Marlyne Barrett, S. Epatha Merkerson, and Oliver Platt. The story follows the doctors, nurses, and staff of the city’s state of the art trauma center, Gaffney Chicago Medical Center. As a team, they confront the Windy City’s most critical medical cases and challenging ethical dilemmas with courage, compassion, and state-of-the-art treatment. The series also features crossovers with Chicago Fire and Chicago PD.

The fifth season of Chicago Med is averaging a 1.15 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 8.08 million viewers. Compared to season four, that’s down by 5% and 2%, respectively.

Today, it was announced that producer Dick Wolf and his Wolf Entertainment company have signed a new five-year deal to remain at Universal Television. The latter is a division of NBCUniversal Content Studios and has been Wolf’s studio home for the past 36 years. As part of the pact, NBC gave three-year renewals to Chicago Med, Chicago Fire (through season 11), Chicago PD (through season 10), and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (through season 24).

“The significance of having Dick Wolf remain at Universal Television can’t be overstated,” said Pearlena Igbokwe, President, Universal Television. “Dick has proven himself masterful at building successful, iconic brands and telling gripping, intelligent and thought-provoking stories. It’s an honor and pleasure to be a part of the Wolf Pack for the next five years. We’re also grateful to NBC for their continued support of the Law & Order and Chicago drama series.”
