Does Someone Die on Chicago PD? A Bloody Good Question
Let’s talk about the elephant in the room, or should I say, the ambulance in the alley? Chicago PD is a show that doesn’t shy away from the gritty realities of police work, which unfortunately includes the occasional trip to the pearly gates.
Death is Just Another Tuesday
It’s like the show has a morbid fascination with offing characters. One minute they’re chasing down bad guys, and the next they're starring in their own personal episode of ‘Six Feet Under’. It’s enough to make you question if the writers have a death wish or a particularly dark sense of humor.
Spoiler Alert: If you’re the type of person who gets attached to characters, you might want to invest in a good therapist or a really strong drink before tuning in.
Who’s Safe?
You might think the main characters are immune to the grim reaper’s scythe, but think again. Even Sergeant Hank Voight, the stone-faced leader of the Intelligence Unit, has had his fair share of close calls. It’s like the writers are playing a twisted game of Russian roulette with our emotions.
A Necessary Evil?
Now, before you start sending angry letters to the showrunners, let’s be honest: these deaths often serve a purpose. They add tension, drama, and a sense of realism to the show. Plus, it keeps us on the edge of our seats, right?
But seriously, it would be nice if they could occasionally give us a break from the constant barrage of funerals. Maybe a feel-good episode where everyone wins a puppy or something.
