Chicago Fire: Season Five [DVD]

Chicago Fire is definitely a show that found what works and sticks with it. So, as in past seasons, it is mostly a procedural drama that intertwines several story arcs throughout the season. The two big arcs were Dawson and Casey's quest to adopt Louie, which as you can imagine does not go smoothly, and about 2/3 of the way into the season, a new love interest for Severide that has ties to Chicago Med. Then, of course, there is the "One Chicago" crossover. This season, the shows involved in the crossover were Fire (which was part 1), PD (which was part 2), and the newly minted yet short-lived Chicago Justice. Its premiere episode was part 3 of the crossover. While Chicago Med did not have a full episode during the crossover, a good portion of the first two parts were set in the hospital and many of the characters appeared. The season, yet again, ends on a major cliffhanger that sees many of the characters in life-threatening danger.For those who get the DVDs, the only bonus features are the crossover episodes with PD and Justice (there are actually a couple of crossover episodes with PD this season). Unlike prior seasons there are no behind-the-scenes shorts for the episodes. So, if you only get the DVD sets when they have extras available, then you may want to just stream this (all the seasons are now available on Peacock, and I believe the episodes of the current/most recent season stream on Hulu) unless you are just getting them because you have the prior seasons on DVD.Overall, the series is still well-written and as it has always been, well-acted. The cinematography is very good as well, giving a lot of good views of Chicago. The writers do a good job with balancing storylines for the large ensemble cast and make sure to give something for most of the secondary characters. They also pull off a good mix of action and drama with a bit of humor mixed in. It is definitely worth the watch.

A worthy entry in Dick Wolf's CHICAGO franchise! I was initially planning to move to Chicago and thought the show would shed some light on the city's conditions and routines. As it turns out, my plans fell through, possibly my decision was indirectly influenced by the show. But, Dick Wolf, as with LAW & ORDER, knows a great concept when he sees it and can get you hooked just by one episode. Since the first episode, the first alarm is always the most gripping. The cast is superb (despite the departure of Mills and Shay) and the brilliance of Chief Boden (the always watchable Eamonn Walker who I remember being so gripping on OZ). Not a false note or moment and the cast give it their all. I have been known to cry in many an episode and I'm a pretty tough guy as they come. Of the four CHICAGO series of which I'm sure are just as top notch, FIRE burns quite brightly! I've collected every episode since season 1. I intend to keep going on through season 6! Bravo and keep it up!

I love all the Chicago shows: Fire, Med & Police. I like the human & relationship/s side of these shows. And all fast-paced but not violent, crazy or sicko gory. Chicago PD gets a little violent but not like some of the other police & detective shows. I very best ever police/fire/ER show ever was "Third Watch" (early 1090s). Unfortunately, only 2 seasons were released.

This is the best in the Chicago series in my opinion. Not happy with the end of Season 5 but I am not the writer. Glad Dawson left however, my least favorite character. If I were the writer I would have Casey find a woman who will appreciate him and find a new girlfriend for Severide... just saying. I like strong women but truthfully sometimes these are just over the top. Just my opinion.

Once again this series doesn't disappoint. The story lines are good and it is great to see some of the other characters getting more involved in the stories. I won't spoil it for anyone but there is a cliffhanger ending again and I can only hope that there is another series as many of the main characters are involved. This series is one to watch & enjoy. It is so easy to binge watch due to the stories but as there is always a gap between series I did try to limit myself to just 2 episodes at a time! Highly recommend this show!

This show always amazes and surprises me. I hope it keeps going for a long time....

For some reason my order did not go through when I placed me order. Which I did not realize and thought I ordered a different season. So I bought the last few episode seperately. NOW I get charged the full episode! Not Impressed.

Movie content i loved it. However, problems with seasons 3 they 8 skipping on several of the discs or locked up. Won't purchase another dvd.

Only one I couldn't find on line to watch so had to buy this season. All disc's worked just fine, plus was nice with no commercials

Es una pena que no la hayan sacado a la venta en España porque es de los mejorcico que hay ahora en tv, aproveché que esta temporada estaba a menos de 5€ y la pillé. Llegó en perfecto estado, he de decir que, por supuesto, el idioma español que trae es el latino

Tout d'abord je dois préciser que ces DVD sont bien en version française.J'ai toutefois noté quelques bizarreries, Le DVD 1 présente les épisodes 1 à 4 et le DVD 2 les épisodes 6 à 9.Ma question, où est passé l'épisode 5 ? Sur le DVD 3, le premier épisode n'est pas numéroté, ensuite on trouve les épisodes 10 jusqu'à 12, mais il semble y avoir une répétition de scènes dans l'épisode 10 et pas de suite chronologique sur le 11.Pour le moment je n'ai pas encore tout visionné, j'espère ne pas avoir d'autres surprises pour la suite.Même souci pour le DVD 4, 2 épisodes sont en doublon avec ceux présents sur le DVD 5...Cette saison est toujours aussi passionnante que les précédentes et la vidéo d'excellente qualité, dommage pour le suivi des épisodes...

Wir haben bisher alle Staffeln geschaut und warten sozusagen jetzt schon auf die nächste. Es ist einfach alles dabei von Spannung, Tränen und auch Freude. Mein Mann und ich schauen die Folgen sehr gerne. Und obwohl mein Mann selbst ein Feuerwehrmann ist, erzählt er mir in dieser Serie nicht pausenlos das das ja alles Quatsch ist wie gearbeitet wird, oder wie das Feuer sich verbreitet. Somit wohl auch nicht ganz realitätsfremd.

Es de las mejores series que puedes ver en tu vida, no puedes parar de verla! Tiene todo esta serie, comedia, drama, acción, es perfecta 👌🏻 bendito Dick Wolf es un genio!
