Chicago Fire is officially returning on Nov. 11, and we’re itching to know what’s going to happen in Season 9.
For Chicago Fire fans, the past several months have been rough. Not knowing when the show would resume filming, after being upended by the pandemic, had everyone feeling anxious.
But fear not, fans, the moment has arrived! The show’s production picked back up in September, and our fervent friends at Firehouse 51 will be back on our screens in less than two months.
Check out our top three questions for Chicago Fire Season 9 below!
With a new season comes new storylines, and we have a few questions about what’s in store for our favorite firefighters and paramedics in Season 9.
1. Chicago Fire Season 9: Will we get a Stellaride proposal?
Lt. Kelly Severide started out as a suave ladies man, bedding beautiful women left and right. He tried being monogamous a few times. It didn’t quite stick. But that all changed when Severide’s sassy, spunky former crush Stella Kidd arrived at Firehouse 51.
In true drama TV fashion, though, the two first took us on a relationship rollercoaster ride for nearly two seasons. But they eventually came to their senses and got serious.
Stellaride fans rejoiced!
It’s a ship worth rooting for, as Kidd and Severide are a great match. They are both strong people with strong personalities. But they also both have big hearts and are supportive of each other.
And despite all the back and forth, and highs and lows, the pair seemed to finally be on solid ground in Season 8. Not even Severide’s pretty OFI partner, Lt. Wendy Seager, who was bold enough to hit on him in front of Kidd, could shake them.
It only makes sense that Stellaride would consider taking the next step in their relationship soon. And Severide did mention having kids and grandkids with Kidd. So, let’s hope Season 9 brings the couple closer to that scenario.
