Follows District 21 of the Chicago Police Department, which is made up of two distinctly different groups: the uniformed cops and the Intelligence Unit.
Watchseries; PD is a spin off of Chicago Fire but you certainly don't have to have seen Chicago Fire to enjoy it. However, there is a lot of background on the main leader of the cops from Chicago Fire in which he was really presented as a bad guy. A lot of that has since been slightly washed down although he certainly does things that other conventional cop shows don't show. Which is one of the main things that makes this show good.
All of the main cops are very good but the show does not feel as edgy as it really could. There was however an absolute shock a few weeks ago in one episode but I won't mention it since it is a spoiler. More of those shocks would be warranted.
I like it when we do see characters from Chicago Hope spill over and vice verse but this show certainly lives on its own.
I'd recommend this to everyone who likes shows like Special Victims and Law&Order.

Chicago P.D. watchseries. People who said this show made them angry? Are you for real? Seriously, how can a show make you angry? You have some thin skin!
This show is great. I never saw a single episode of Chicago Fire but I think this is one of the best Cop shows to come out in a long time.
This show delivers and is interesting. What is there not to like if you watch Cop shows?
The first show grabbed my attention and held it the entire show and the second and third were close to as good.

I love this show for its believable characters and interesting, ever-changing story lines. Occasionally humorous and always action packed and entertaining, essentially what you see is what you get- it's a cop show, but one done right. Time is taken to develop the characters and thought is put into the issues investigated each episode.
No point in complaining that it "isn't realistic"- it's a TV show...they do their best, which in my opinion is pretty great. Not to mention the show is cleverly crossed over with its sister shows Fire and Med. :D
As a side note the cast also has an excellent presence on social media, which helps to fill the void left by the show's annual weeks of absence.

OK. Somebody please tell me there is a number more than 10 for this pilot. I am surprised to see Chicago P.D., specially from NBC. It's more than anything I've ever saw from Television so far and I'm Speechless. The violence is used for this series is almost enough to not be scared about and is not more than you expect to be a drama series. In years I saw so many police dramas from different networks, Criminal Minds, Justified, The Closer, Copper, Cracked, Crossing Lines and Dexter, but this is different. The idea is fresh, the casts are Good, the plot is not Predictable (I think because I just saw the pilot), directing was good, visual effects are astonishing and the series is so far building to my expectations. I cannot wait to see more. Hope this will be continues in next episodes. 10/10.

Not sure why people complain about morals. I don't watch these type of shows for morals, I watch them because they are fun. This show has their own justice which most of of understand we can't have, but would like to have. Bottom line well written show, great actors and actresses and down right a fun and entertaining show. I like the fact this this could be a crooked cop show, but does what is right to get the job done. Problem with the show is it's only on once a week. I am not sure if I can wait another week for episode 2.
If you are looking for a fun and exciting show, this is it. If you want morals and values, go watch Mr. Robinson

I'm not going to even lie, I was a little skeptical at first about this show. However, after watching it the first couple of weeks, I was really impressed. I started to find myself enjoying the show much more than I expected. I like the fact that all of the characters have a story line. Chicago Fire was already a great show but I like how the producer incorporates both shows together. Detective Voight was not my favorite person in the world when I first encountered him. However, after watching the show this First season, he is my favorite actor on the show now. Chicago PD is starting to become my favorite show on television. The action is great along with the characters!

About the Cliché characters. What do you expect? Characters are what makes or breaks a show! People watch to root for their Character!
