Is ‘Chicago Fire’ Season 13 Streaming? Where To Watch the Iconic Procedural
Dick Wolf is the mastermind behind some of the best-loved procedurals in the modern era. From Law & Order to FBI, millions of doting supporters tune in year upon year to indulge in the fast-paced formulaic television that proves unmissably indulgent time and time again. One such series created by Michael Brandt and Derek Haas, later becoming an enormously successful franchise, is Chicago Fire, the story of the lives of those working in the Chicago Fire Department at the fictional Firehouse 51.
Now a mainstay on screens for twelve years, Chicago Fire seems to be going from strength to strength, as the boundaries of procedural storytelling continue to be pushed. The upcoming Season 13 looks to bring the series back on track after the summer of industry strikes affected Season 12. So, with all that in mind, here’s a look at exactly where you can watch Chicago Fire Season 13.

Watch the ‘Chicago Fire’ Season 13 Trailer
Although not a Chicago Fire-specific trailer, September 18 brought with it a teaser for all three returning One Chicago shows, and is available to watch above. Featuring interview segments with many from the trilogy of ensembles, for Chicago Fire fans, the inclusion of Firehouse 51’s newest fire chief, Dermot Mulroney’s Dom Pascal, makes for the highlight of the trailer, as the actor admits, “It’s great to join Chicago Fire”, whilst fans are treated to a sneak peek of Pascal running the station in his crisp new uniform. Mulroney’s character takes over the throne long held by Eamonn Walker’s Wallace Boden, an iconic mainstay of Firehouse 51 that was the biggest shock departure among a sea of others. Luckily for fans, the changeover is eased by the news that Walker will return in a cameo capacity, so his face won’t be altogether gone from the series just yet. With this merry-go-round of changes comes the dawn of a new era of Chicago Fire, highlighted by showrunner Andrea Newman, who told NBC Insider, “It is a new era [of Chicago Fire] in lots of ways, though the core family is still together and will need each other to manage the twists and turns ahead. Fans can expect some darker themes [in Season 13], with new challenges, battles, and thrills as things get shaken up at 51!” A teasing description via NBC for the upcoming thirteenth season reads:
“It’s impossible to anticipate where Chicago Fire ‘s endless action is headed next, but Chi-Hards can prepare for more high-stakes rescue missions and explosive Firehouse 51 drama with Mulroney’s new fire chief at the helm. With some staffing shake-ups seen in Season 12 of Chicago Fire , viewers are perched to see how the firefighters navigate the latest challenges.”
