What makes Tony Ferraris and Capp so compelling isn’t just longevity — it’s authenticity. Tony Ferraris isn’t merely playing a firefighter; he is one. An active-duty Chicago Fire Department member, his real-world experience lends credibility to every scene he’s in. When Tony works a call, he isn’t acting. He’s doing what he’s done for years.
That realism pairs perfectly with Randy Flagler’s Capp, whose dry humor and observational commentary make him the ideal counterweight to the show’s high drama. Together, they embody the unglamorous truth of firefighting: consistency, teamwork, and quiet competence.
