Is a New Episode of Chicago P.D. on Tonight? (December 18, 2024)

Chi-Hards, here's when the Season 12 action continues on NBC.

By Jessica White

Season 12 of Chicago P.D. has been an emotional rollercoaster, but the twists and turns have come to a halt as the show's midseason hiatus continues.

How to Watch

Watch the Season 12 premiere of Chicago P.D. Wednesday, September 25 at 10/9c on NBC

The Intelligence Unit has taken new shape this season as a new officer settles into the squad, but Captain Hank Voight (Jason Beghe) hasn't missed a beat as his fearless team tackles whatever high-stakes case lands on their radar. Along the way, P.D. fans have enjoyed some steamy romances; not only has Kevin Atwater (LaRoyce Hawkins) found a connection with a One Chicago newcomer, but Voight has even thawed to the idea of dating someone new. Chi-Hards can't wait to jump back into the action, and with a One Chicago crossover episode and a Burzek wedding in the works, new episodes of Season 12 couldn't come fast enough.

"The funny thing is that, with all the darkness, we goof around the whole time," Patrick John Flueger told The Hollywood Reporter. "Everyone is so serious, but at the same time, we goof around. Every set says, 'We're a family, we're a family.' I'll tell you what: we are a family! Our crew works so hard; they're there for such long hours that, if we didn't goof around, I don't know how it would be survivable."

How can I watch old episodes of Chicago P.D.?

All 12 seasons of Chicago P.D. are available to stream on Peacock, NBC's streaming service.

"It's a pretty big family," series creator Dick Wolf said in 2019. "Everybody gets along. I mean, there are no squeaky wheels in the cast... I've never had anything like it, which is, I think, only visible to the audience by the fact of how good they are together. There are no line counters. There are no 'Where's my close-up?' It's a remarkably ensemble-like world."
