Given how long the show has been on the air, there may be those who are wondering how many seasons Chicago PD there have been since its inaugural episode in 2013.

Is Chicago PD cancelled?

Chicago PD is currently in the middle of its ninth season. There have been 173 episodes that have aired, with an average of 22-23 episodes per season. The pilot premiered in 2013, but the series wasn’t officially picked up until January 8, 2014, when it was picked as a mid-season replacement by NBC. The first season offered up 15 episodes, before rising up to the standard 22 episodes in season 2.

The only season that’s fallen below this number (besides the first) is season 8, which only featured 16 episodes. This was largely due to scheduling complications brought about by COVID, and the various concerns surrounding safety standards.
