2022 has been quite an interesting year for NBC’s One Chicago franchise. Across the past year, Chicago Fire, Chicago Med, and Chicago PD have each undergone a series of shakeups to their core casts.

Sure, we’ve come to expect some cast shakeups each year, but there is no denying 2022 has seen one of the biggest years of cast changes in the franchise’s history.

We’ve seen actors who have been with the shows since their first seasons departing unexpectedly, bid farewell to characters who have won us over in recent seasons, and watched others leave just as we were starting to get to know them.
