As “Chicago P.D.” returns for its highly anticipated twelfth season, fans are eager to know how many episodes will unfold this time around.
NBC has not officially confirmed the exact episode count for Season 12, but expectations are based on past patterns. Typically, seasons of the beloved crime drama consist of anywhere between 18 to 22 episodes, depending on production timelines and network decisions.
Season 12 arrives in a unique context, with the conclusion of the WGA strike paving the way for resumed production. This opens the door for the possibility of a full-length season. Given the successful conclusion of labor disputes in the industry, it’s likely that “Chicago P.D.” will aim for a more robust episode count to satisfy fans who have eagerly awaited its return.
The show has been praised for its intense storytelling and emotionally charged cases that keep viewers at the edge of their seats. Season 12 promises to be no different, featuring returning favorites like Sergeant Hank Voight and Officer Kim Burgess, alongside new cast member Toya Turner, who brings fresh energy to the series.
In keeping with tradition, new episodes will air weekly on NBC, with streaming options available on Peacock the next day for those who miss the live broadcast. The immersive crime drama remains a pillar of the “One Chicago” universe, alongside its sister shows “Chicago Med” and “Chicago Fire.”
With so much at stake for the team this season, including personal challenges and high-pressure cases, it seems clear that the narrative will continue to captivate its loyal fanbase. Stay tuned as the season develops and more episodes are announced.
