This week, NBC released details about the upcoming 2024-2025 season, and as it stands, the team at Firehouse 51 will be back on Wednesday, September 25 at 9pm ET/PT., but fans are hoping that the show could default back to its pre-pandemic length, which was between 22-24 episodes per season.
A cast list is yet to be divulged, although we imagine Taylor Kinney, David Eigenberg, Joe Minoso, Miranda Rae Mayo, Daniel Kyri, Hanako Greensmith, Christian Stolte and more will be back on our screens.Absent from series 13, however, will be Rome Flynn – aka Jake Gibson. In April 2024, it was announced that the actor had been written out of season 12, with his character leaving to get help for a prescription pill addiction.
Rome isn’t the only star to depart the franchise lately. Alberto Rosende, Kara Killmer, and Eamonn Walker have all stepped down from their roles after starring in multiple seasons.Alberto’s character Blake Gallo made his final appearance in the season 12 premiere when he decided to move to Michigan, while Eamonn is scaling back his role as boss Wallace Boden, with the understanding that he’ll return for several episodes in some capacity in the future.
As for Kara, her final storyline saw her on-screen counterpart Sylvie Brett pack her bags for Portland after tying the knot with Matt Casey .While it’s always sad to say goodbye to cast members, season 13 has also given fans plenty to celebrate. Amid several big to the cast, it has also been announced that Jocelyn Hudon, who plays paramedic Lyla Novak, has been promoted to a series regular after one season.
Lyla was introduced to viewers in season 12 as a freelancer before agreeing to join Violet as an official member of the Firehouse 51 team.
