Is Severide Hanging Up His Helmet? A Look at Taylor Kinney's Chicago Fire Future

Okay, so, let's talk about the elephant in the firehouse: Taylor Kinney, or as we affectionately know him, the hottest firefighter this side of the Mississippi, and his potential departure from Chicago Fire. Gasp! I know, right? It's like finding out your favorite pizza place is out of pepperoni. A tragedy.

The Great Severide Scare of 2023

Remember that time last year when Taylor took a little hiatus? It was like someone had unplugged the fire alarm. The entire fandom was in a state of panic, wondering if our boy Severide was going to trade in his helmet for a beach umbrella. Turns out, it was just a temporary blaze, and he came roaring back. But let's be honest, it left us all a little scarred.

So, Is He Leaving or What?

Short answer: It's complicated. Long answer: We don't know for sure. The show has been renewed for another season, so there's a good chance our boy will be back. But then again, in the world of television, anything can happen. Maybe he's planning a surprise exit, a dramatic helicopter rescue that will leave us sobbing into our popcorn. Or maybe he's just taking a long, well-deserved vacation.

Why the Speculation?

Good question. It's partly due to that little scare last year. Plus, let's face it, we're all a bunch of drama queens when it comes to our favorite shows. We love to speculate, theorize, and completely lose our minds over the slightest hint of character departure. It's kind of our thing.

What Does the Future Hold?

Honestly, your guess is as good as mine. But one thing's for sure: we're all hoping for the best. Maybe Severide will find a new calling as a firefighter therapist, or maybe he'll just keep doing what he does best: being incredibly hot and saving people. Either way, we'll be here, cheering him on.

How To... Questions

  • How to cope with the potential loss of Severide? Stock up on tissues, binge-watch old episodes, and find a new TV obsession (good luck with that).
  • How to convince Taylor Kinney to stay? Write a heartfelt letter, send him a care package filled with Chicago-themed goodies, or start a social media campaign.
  • How to prepare for life without Severide? Learn CPR, invest in a really good fire extinguisher, and consider becoming a firefighter yourself.
  • How to survive the next season of Chicago Fire? Find a supportive friend group, join an online fan community, and remember, there are other characters to love.
  • How to keep hope alive? Remind yourself that this is just a TV show, and while we love Severide, the world will keep turning.
