Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Greenes Please don't spend money on this.

Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

wittmann_todd I am such a fan of this series and have started again with season 1 binge watching. Now when a person binge watches a series many goofs and inconsistencies become apparent. For instance the same buildings on fire...numbers on engines being different in the same scene...and on. BUT...one cannot help but appreciate the gamut of emotions experienced in each episode with laughter, warmth, sadness, celebration, loss and deep caring. I have loved this ride and continue to do so and cannot understand why the reviewers ratings have dropped over 100 since the series began. I could care less about the criticism about realism. I enjoy the interpersonal dynamics. The manner in which the rescues are performed are not only entertaining but innovative and educational. Many of my fellow User Reviews look at the goofs in everything they watch (like Harrison Ford wearing an ironed t-shirt in the new Blade Runner) without appreciating the eye movements and facial expressions which endears a character to the viewer with the story line. I have nothing in common with such Reviews as they are written by people who want to be cute without substance. I would have given this series a perfect 10 EXCEPT for a few reasons below: 1. All other fire fighters in other houses are treated as inept, careless and sloppy. This culminates in S05E14 where the replacements of house 51 shows an overweight sloppy unnamed actor, people slouching in chairs and the like. There is a sexist commander in another firehouse. 2. All the chiefs are incompetent and ego driven throughout the series. Bowden is the only competent and caring chief in seemingly existence. The Chicago fire department would and could not function with this kind of depicted leadership and it does get irritating that the only good firemen are in House 51. 3. Gabby Dawson has irritated the heck out of me. Yet, she finally comes into maturity in mid season five...OTHERWISE...Gabby is a spoiled, selfish and self centered individual who cares about nothing except what she wants and when she wants it. An irritating child which I cringed about in the first four seasons. 4. The consistent release of tension and personal dynamics always seem to result in a couple throwing their shirts across the room engaging in release sex. 5. The theme of the house is honesty, honesty, honesty...but every episode involves much deception, secrets and failing to trust each other with just the basic of information. This does become irritating.I will never stop watching this show...I love it. It makes me a better man and inspires me to reach out and pay attention to others much more than any church service can inspire. I have also learned many techniques on how to help someone in an emergency situation. Every character makes me smile and make me sad at the same time. The crossover between PD, SVU and MED make this fun seeing the same characters involved in the other Wolf Chicago series.

lbutlerus well this show has gone from one of my favorites to a show i cannot even watch anymore. it is more of a cheap soap opera than a dick wolf production are they trying to make a comedy out of chicago fire? well if they are they are doing a poor job at that also. i have had to turn the show or fast forward a recording to get thru the stupid dialog. stop trying to be al bundy and get back to the decent show you once were...

e_gogo I really love the TV series "Chicago fire"- it has everything you may wish for : drama, action, relations, politics, etc. All characters are really suitable for their roles and I cannot wait for the next season! Dear Team, thank you for making this great TV series available for us! Please keep on the good work and make the new season sooner! Every single episod ends with too much drama to wait for the other!

terrylange "The amount of times one character asks another, "You OK? in a given episode is not only stupid crayon writing, but idiotic. Keep a count - you'll laugh.The characters are likable if not wholly predictable. The drama is scripted and again, very predictable. More graphic that what we've seen in the last 30+, but same-o same-o.
