I actually have no idea why Fox cancelled this...I know viewers did slump a little but an absolute ridiculous decision. Looks like my Friday nights at 10pm will be a little different? Does anyone know if another broadcaster can pick this up?
I guess it's back to our local retro tv station where they show the old black and white robert stack "UNTOUCHABLES",HAWAII FIVE-O and STREETS OF SAN FRANCISCO.
I left Chicago when I was 21, over 40 years ago... don't want to go back, but do enjoy seeing it on TV. I watch this theme over and over... it's great! What's this about the show being cancelled? Thanks to YouTube for keeping stuff like these themesongs for us!
Hmmm. Robert Duncan writes the (awesome) theme to "Terriers." "Terriers" gets cancelled. Robert Duncan writes the (awesome) theme to "The Chicago Code," "The Chicago Code" gets cancelled. I'm starting to sense a pattern here...
I'm pretty sure some where in the corporation of fox that someone is reading this. Chicago Code is a great show. Don't let it slip through your fingers! Renew it!
At least it seems like they will wrap up the plot by the series finale.
Decent show, though it wasn't surprising to me a show like this won't get great ratings on a broadcast network. Shawn Ryan, next time you do a show like this, pitch it to a cable network, but not on a broadcast network where most of the viewers do not have half the attention span of that of a goldfish.
I imagine this show would've done decent on TNT. At least we still got the The Shield to remember by.
I am a filmmaker in Chicago, and this is the kind of show that deeply inspires me. I also know several actors that have worked on this show, and have nothing but the best things to say about it, through and through. This is an amazing show that has a sky high potential, and is worth hanging onto. The word of mouth is building fast and strong. I've never seen so many of my friends rally around a TV show before. You greenlight a second season, and I guarantee that the viewership will increase.
Breaking-In cancellation being reconsidered... why not Chicago Code? Search for "Save The Chicago Code" event on Facebook and get as many people as you can to support by watching the final episodes!
@pushmonkeys Chicago Code got their consideration before Breaking-In. Not only are other networks interested in the show, but if the overseas ratings (because it just premiered in Italy and the UK) are decent, FOX will bring it back themselves for a 2nd season.
No no no noooooo! The Chicago Sun Times posted yesterday that Fox cancelled this GREAT show. What's wrong with you, Fox? Did you learn nothing from cancelling Family Guy?
I received a tweet last night from EW magazine stating that Fox canceled the Chicago Code, along with Lie to Me, Human Target, Breaking In and Traffic Light. I'm really surprised Lie to Me got the ax. I thought it was doing okay. Evidently not.
@Artstsym Evidently Fox doesn't share in our love for the show. I just received a tweet from EW magazine regarding several shows Fox just given the ax to and unfortunately The Chicago Show was on the list. :-(
Lousy show. Born and raised in Chicago, far and away the most fascination city in America. Yet, these folks miss everything that is genuinely interesting about it. I was hoping for something like The Wire or, at least, The Shield. Not at all. This show seems like it was produced by a not very knowledgeable tourist. A shame.
@MrLinebacker33 Not really. Look, having lived here my whole life, I am probably more aware than many of how unrealistic the show is. But so what? If you don't know the city well, if you don't see the the cracks, it is probably a pretty entertaining show. I admit that.
where can i find the full verison of this song and what was the name of the song when they were checking to see if that badguys son was there and the officer goes i think youre gonna be ok something with the law idk lol
Normally new shows i really dislike, and i was really sceptical about the show...gave it a shot and now my mondays are Chicago filled.This show is a terrific show, i get so sucked into it it is amazing.
I'd Swear to God! I'll buy it on APPLE, AMAZON or I can get in it hell! Long as I get the song! Please! Please! Please! I want it!!!!! T_T<---Tears of want
you want to watch a real cop show, one that stay true the police officers and has it's own wonderful personality? watch SOUTHLAND. once you get past the fact that one of the leads is from the OC you realise it doesn't matter, the show isn't all about him.
Good show. To me, it's a toned down, more simplified and audience friendly version of The Shield. Sadly, I could imagine the ratings declining for this down the road. But hope not.
@austingone Here's the lyrics as I perceive them: Who's gonna hear your cry? When there's more of them than there are of you Who's gonna hear your cry? When the high winds come and it takes your breath Who's gonna hear your voice? (The fighting??) men wanna cut you down And the sun is gone In the dead of night And ???? Who's gonna hear your cry?
@burningchisox - I think the end is "And the sun is gone in the night of night in this town. Who's gonna hear your cry?". Sounds like it to me, at least.
What's Shawn Ryan up to now? This show was great.
