The said show was already a constant part of everyone's Wednesday life, together with SVU, Law & Order and Blindspot. The hit series raked in 6.538 million during its fourth installment with 1.38 rating in the 18-49 demographic.

It was remembered that Chicago PD Season 4 ended with some series of cliffhangers. Bunny was accused of killing Linday's boyfriend. Not just that, police also wanted to investigate the current actions of Lindsay. Moreover, it was confirmed that upcoming installment might answer all the hanging questions from the previous season. Also, Halstead might be marrying Lindsay this time.
As Jesse Lee Soffer stated, "Halstead is thinking about asking her to marry him, Lindsay's character gets into a lot of trouble. She goes too far in the interrogation room. We have to wait and see if she still has her job [and] if she can stay in the unit. Boyd is going to try and take care of business and come to the rescue."
Meanwhile, Carter Matt reported, that because of the series' storyline, Chicago PD might be renewed over and over again in the next years.
