Is Chicago Fire Burning a Hole in Your TV Schedule?
Let’s talk about the burning question on everyone’s lips (or at least, those of us with excellent taste in TV): When the heck is Chicago Fire coming back to our UK screens? We know, we know, the wait is excruciating. It's like being stuck in a burning building without Severide’s smouldering good looks to distract you.
The Great British Fire Drought
Now, we understand that you’re probably tired of hearing about the US release date. We get it, it’s like teasing a dog with a bone and then taking it away. But fear not, fellow fire enthusiasts, the UK air date is on its way. It’s just taking its sweet time, like a particularly stubborn fire to put out.
We’ve heard rumours, whispers, and the occasional smoke signal about a potential return. But let’s be honest, these are as reliable as a fire hydrant on a sunny day. Until there’s an official announcement, we’re all just standing around with our hoses at the ready, hoping for the best.
What Can We Do While We Wait?
While we patiently await the return of our favourite firefighters, let’s focus on what we can do. For starters, we can rewatch all the previous seasons. And by “we,” we mean you, because we’ve already seen them about a million times. Or, you could try your hand at becoming a firefighter. Just kidding, don’t do that. It’s dangerous and involves a lot of running around in heavy gear.
We could also start a support group. We could call it “Firehouse 51 Anonymous” and meet up to share our addiction to the show. Or, we could just keep refreshing our TV guides like obsessive maniacs.
How to Survive the Chicago Fire Drought
- How to stay sane while waiting for Chicago Fire: Binge-watch other shows, take up a new hobby, or start a support group (see above).
- How to avoid spoilers: Unfollow all Chicago Fire-related accounts on social media. Or, just disconnect from the internet entirely.
- How to prepare for the return of Chicago Fire: Stock up on snacks, drinks, and tissues. You’re going to need them.
- How to cope with the inevitable let-down when the new season ends: Start planning your next binge-watch.
- How to become a firefighter: Just kidding, don't do that.
So, there you have it. Until the day Chicago Fire returns to our screens, we can only hope, dream, and speculate. In the meantime, let’s support the show by buying all the merchandise, tweeting about it constantly, and generally being as annoying as possible to anyone who hasn’t seen it.
