I love a good cop show and this one is definitely a great one! Great characters and development along with exciting plot lines. Season 8 was pretty terrible because they changed it completely to fit everyone's obsession with "all cops are bad" a few years back and I almost quit it. But season 9 was on par again! I am hoping it never ends and continues going in the right direction after the season 8 flop. I am impressed it hasn't become dull and repetitive for being on for so long!
I have really enjoyed Chicago PD ever since it first started back in 2014. There are so many different police/crime shows to choose from these days that's it's hard to pick which ones to watch...watch this one. It shows how their unit investigates their cases. All the characters are well written with good back stories. That's what separates this from other cop shows, the characters development and the great cast that portrays these characters. I highly recommend this of your a fan of police shows. Every episode is satisfying and you can't say that about other cop shows. After ten seasons it's still one of the most entertaining cop shows on tv.
By far the best of the Chicago trilogy, and it's not even close. Voight is the best cop character currently on tv. I've already given up on Med, and am close to the same with Fire. I'm not into soap opera-driven storylines occupying the majority of an episode. I put PD in the same category as Streets of San Francisco, Hill Street Blues, The Shield and The Wire to name a few. That is the best TV available.
Chicago PD follows the Intelligence Unit as they investigated crimes in the city of Chicago. It's led by Hank Voight (Jason Beghe) who has a history of stepping over the line however he wants to get results. This series has a gritty feel to it that separates it from other police shows. The best thing about it is the cast (Beghe, Patrick John Flueger, Jesse Lee Soffer, LaRoyce Hawkins, Sophia Bush, Tracy Spiridakos, Marina Squerciati, Elias Korea's, etc.). It's one show of a bigger Chicago Universe that they created along with Chicago Fire & Chicago Med. I personally think Chicago PD is far and away the best of the 3 and definitely worth watching.
In my opinion this show as well as Chicago Fire (Of which Chicago PD is a spin off of) are the best cop, paramedic and firefighter shows since Third Watch.
Chicago PD is full of action right off the bat and although it may not be the most realistic or factual cop show it is entertaining which is what TV is meant to be. If i wanted to see something realistic id watch a reality highway patrol show... ZzzZz
If you like Chicago Fire Third Watch, SVU or any of those type of shows your bound to love this!
I'm hooked and i've only seen one episode.

- TriviaThe show is filmed in Chicago. The actors/actresses trained for 3 months beforehand with retired S.W.A.T. personnel and real Chicago Police officers.
- GoofsPolice officers consistently say a person was DOA, which stands for Dead On Arrival (at a hospital), when the person is found dead at the scene of a crime. What they should say is DOS, which stands for Dead On Scene. However, while DOA can mean 'found to be dead upon arriving at hospital', it can also mean 'found dead at a scene, upon the arrival of an emergency medical service, or the police or other qualified first responders'.
