The series some set of fire fighters of Chicago Firehouse 51 forge who are a dedicated rescue squad who make life saving decision when it matters most.
The new NBC series is a garden-variety action procedural, with a crew of EZ-to-read characters and story lines that start at A and finish exactly where you expect them to, at Zzz.
Oz's Eammon Walker and House's Jesse Spencer are among the men and women who populate the show's Windy City firehouse, where all sorts of bland personal drama occurs in between flame-fighting.
While Chicago Fire might be a little too basic for today's viewers who like highly original dramas, the cast does as good of a job as they can and have an energy that has the potential to draw in a small, loyal fan base.
