The Law & Order, One Chicago and FBI series

[OceanBlue]

Haven't included Chicago Justice in the thread title as it was a short-lived series which was cancelled a few years ago. Also haven't included FBI spin-off Most Wanted, as (as far as I'm aware) it hasn't been acquired yet by a UK channel (but I'm hoping Sky acquire it as they already show FBI (the second season started on Sky Witness last Thursday night).

After reading the news in the Chicago Fire: Season Seven thread in the UK sub-forum yesterday or the day before, I checked Amazon UK to see if the most recent seasons of Chicago Fire, P.D. and Med were available to pre-order. They were, and I like the order they're being released in (not on the same day in September), in the order they originally aired in the States (Sky Witness did the same), Med, Fire then P.D.

Sky Witness were already showing Chicago Fire, but after Universal TV (previously Universal Channel) closed down. Sky (who are owned by Comcast, who also own NBC Universal) acquired some of the shows they showed, including Chicago Med. The big news for the fans at the time, was that Sky had acquired Chicago P.D., which had been with Channel 5 (shown on one of it's channels, 5USA). Meaning us UK fans would be able to see any crossover events in one go, instead of seeing each part at staggered times of the year.

Anyway, when I checked the front cover artwork for each of the three Chicago shows, I noticed Universal (UK) are using the second version of the promotional artwork for the most recent season. But I noticed two errors on the Amazon UK pre-order listing page for Chicago Med: Season Five. One, the show is no longer on Universal Channel (the first four seasons premiered in the UK on the channel, but the fifth season premiered on Sky Witness). So unless I'm wrong, that logo shouldn't be on there. Secondly, there were 20 episodes in the season (the same with Fire and P.D., not including the bonus crossover episodes). It states "Contains All 22 Episodes" in the product description.

The UK release dates (subject to change) for each of the Chicago shows (source: Amazon UK):

Chicago Med: Season Five - Monday 7th September, 2020
Chicago Fire: Season Eight - Monday 14th September, 2020
Chicago P.D.: Season Seven - Monday 21st September, 2020.

Below are the URL links for each of the Amazon UK pre-order listing pages, along with the front cover artwork for Chicago Med: Season Five, Chicago Fire: Season Eight and Chicago P.D.: Season Seven:

Like with the seventh season, the eighth season of Chicago Fire is DVD-only again in the UK, but as has been said in the "Chicago Fire: Season Seven" thread in the UK sub-forum, Germany has come to the rescue with a Blu-ray release on Tuesday 20th October, 2020.
