TV show description:
This police drama follows the men and women of the Chicago Police Department’s District 21. The facility is made up of two distinctly different groups — the uniformed cops who patrol the beat and go head-to-head with the city’s street crimes and the Intelligence Unit that combats the city’s major offenses (organized crime, drug trafficking, high profile murders, etc.). The responsibilities of these jobs often take an emotional toll on their personal lives.
The Intelligence Unit is headed by Sergeant Hank Voight (Jason Beghe). He doesn’t have a problem crossing legal and ethical lines if that’s what needs to be done to protect the people of Chicago. He can be your ally one minute and your worst enemy the next.
He works alongside Detective Antonio Dawson (Jon Seda) who’s more levelheaded and honest than his counterpart. Antonio put his reservations about Voight aside to help the Intelligence Unit track down Chicago’s most dangerous criminals — while also acting as a role model to younger officers.
Jay Halstead (Jesse Lee Soffer) is a brash young detective who earned his spot on the team thanks in part to Antonio’s endorsement. His partner is Detective Erin Lindsay (Sophia Bush), a tough woman who grew up on the streets until she was taken in by Voight as a teen. Halstead and Lindsay’s relationship may become more personal but it won’t if Voight has his way.
Alvin Olinsky (Elias Koteas) is an experienced undercover detective and confidant for Voight. Quick-witted cadet Kyle Ruzek (Patrick John Flueger) was plucked from the police academy to join Olinsky on undercover assignments.
Kevin Atwater (LaRoyce Hawkins) is a charismatic uniformed patrolman who loves to throw a great party. A uniformed patrolwoman, Kim Burgess (Marina Squerciati) strives to become a part of the elite Intelligence Unit. Sheldon Jin (Archie Kao) is a neat and meticulous detective who’s in charge of surveillance and tech ops.

What do you think? Do you like the Chicago PD TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for another season?
Best show on TV right now since they cancelled Revenge…….
I think it is the 2nd best show, and I hope Sophia Bush stays on it. The cross over shows of Chicago Fire, Law & Order SVU and Chicago PD was great.
Great show. Direct, clear cut and straight to the point. A no BS SHOW THAT I FIND ENTERTAINING !
Love the show , found the season finale disappointing. Really enjoyed the plot that Erin found solace with Viote. Undecided wether I will watch it again next fall didn’t care for the ending.
One of the best – do NOT cancel!
Chicago PD is one of the BEST shows in a VERY LONG TIME., I hope they keep the Chicago Fire is another great show!!!!
Keep these shows ON!!!!
I LOVE CHICAGO PD. This is ONE of the best shows in many years. I really hope that they continue this. Chicago Fire I another GREAT show,
Seems like all that is on TV anymore are Reality TV with no substance.
KEEP THESE TWO SHOWS ON!!!!
Love this show and also Chicago Fire. Please leave them on! These are good shows.
I love this and Chicago Fire! My two favorite shows!!! Please keep them going!
I lovee this show!! Please do not cancel it’s the best!
I absolutely love this show and hope it has a long run. I don’t nitpick shows, I watch them because I enjoy them. I am not a tv critic – I just know which shows I like and the ones I don’t like. TV is not real life nor is it supposed to be – that’s what documentaries are for.
The writers are the worst! Having Burgess unarmed not getting backup but instead going unarmed against an armed criminal was not only crazy but totally unbelievable!!!!! It make no since at all!!!!!
Are you a member of a police force?
Quit watching due to such loud background noise!!
Buy a set of headphones. I had my husband get me a set from Radio Shack and they are great.
Chicago PD is the best show on TV with an outstanding cast highlighted by Jason Beghe whose character Hank Voight steals every scene that he is in.
I like him as an actor but also because his character’s name is my husband’s middle name, which is not all that common.
Best show of a time !!
I totally agree. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that the network will keep it on the air.
