Chicago PD will expertise many modifications in season 13, however they’re going to serve to raised the collection in the long term. Each time any present undergoes any form of reset, it is sometimes met with frustration, regardless of how massive or small it’s. The excellent news is that Chicago PD‘s alterations will not have an effect on the forged an excessive amount of and can as an alternative introduce a brand new and thrilling battle.
With Chicago PD occurring 13 seasons, there are sure to be modifications. As followers know, the make-up of the forged is totally different from season to season as many characters have joined and left the Intelligence Unit through the years. Now, the One Chicago show should say goodbye to at least one collection common in season 13, however that is not the solely new growth.
Chicago PD Season 13 Begins With The Intelligence Unit Disbanded
The Characters Will Be Unfold Out
When Chicago PD season 13 premieres, the Intelligence Unit will nonetheless be disbanded following the season 12 finale, and it looks like it’s going to keep that approach for a minimum of a couple of episodes (based on TV Insider). Season 12 concluded with Deputy Chief Charlie Reid separating Intelligence and placing them below investigation. Now, they have to come to phrases with their new regular.
Reid threw the staff below the bus and stripped Kim Burgess and Dante Torres of their badges in relation to Torres’ inappropriate and unlawful relationship with CI Gloria Perez. As such, Inner Affairs acquired concerned. Reid beforehand suspected that Hank Voight was onto him and wished to get him first. Sadly, for the Deputy Director, that did not work out so effectively for Reid.
Season 13’s Beginning Battle Proves That Killing Reid Did not Resolve All the pieces
Reid’s Loss of life Wasn’t A Repair-All
Throughout the Chicago PD season 12 finale, Voight determined that killing Reid was the one technique to clear up his staff’s newest predicament. He organized for his superior’s demise. Renny Otero, the son of a drug smuggler (who was murdered by certainly one of Reid’s males), walked as much as Reid exterior the courthouse and shot him, with Voight proper subsequent to the Deputy Director.
Whereas Voight did not pull the set off, he was the one who tipped Renny off concerning the id of his father’s killer and his location. After all, Voight did not get caught. Nevertheless, ASA Nina Chapman deduced his involvement in Reid’s demise, which is able to certainly drive a wedge between her and Voight in Chicago PD season 13.
So, not solely did killing Reid do nothing to resolve the Intelligence Unit’s IA issues, nevertheless it additionally ensured {that a} Chicago PD romance between Voight and Chapman would by no means occur. As such, season 13 kicks off with the staff nonetheless disbanded, which is real looking. Simply because Reid’s lifeless doesn’t suggest that IA will neglect about its investigation into Intelligence.
Voight can’t be let off the hook for his crimes at the end of Chicago PD season 12. Sure, this wasn’t the primary time he has organized somebody’s demise, and we have seen him pull the set off himself earlier than. However that does not imply that Voight is that this omnipotent being who can do no matter he needs, each time he needs. There have to be penalties.
Frankly, if Chicago PD season 13 started with the staff again collectively and higher than ever, it might be fairly disappointing. It will even be lazy on the writers’ half if every little thing went again to regular after Reid’s demise. That is not the best way the world works. Moreover, forgetting concerning the IA investigation would not be practically as thrilling as seeing the characters repair this drawback.
The Reset May Serve As A Recent Begin For Chicago PD
The NBC Present May Use A Change
Chicago PD season 13 beginning with the Intelligence Unit disbanded means the collection can discover who the characters are with out this staff. In that sense, it’s going to function a reset and a contemporary begin for the cop show. Chicago PD hasn’t been practically pretty much as good because it was. Maybe this massive change in season 13 shall be simply what it must redeem itself.
It will be attention-grabbing to see how the Chicago PD characters come again collectively and the way their staff shall be totally different transferring ahead. Sadly, they’re going to be lacking Kiana Prepare dinner as Toya Turner is leaving the collection forward of its thirteenth season. However Intelligence shall be gaining a brand new member — Eva Imani, performed by Arienne Mandi.
Eva is Voight’s new accomplice with the Speedy Response squad, the place he’ll be whereas the investigation into the Intelligence Unit continues. In the meantime, the opposite characters are scattered to the wind throughout this time of separation. Because the episodes proceed, Voight shall be attempting to rebuild Intelligence.
It is unclear when or if issues will return to regular in season 13 (that means the Intelligence Unit reunites). Regardless of the case, this separation and time of uncertainty may very effectively be the perfect factor to occur to the NBC collection. It is one thing totally different and will inject Chicago PD with an air of freshness it so desperately wants.
Chicago PD season 13 premieres on Wednesday, October 1, at 10 pm ET on NBC, following new episodes of Chicago Med season 11 at 8 pm ET and Chicago Hearth season 14 at 9 pm ET.
