Possibly, though if his mom is still alive, he could go visit her because she’s sick or injured 2 Link to comment
anna0852 January 20, 2023 Share January 20, 2023 Very true @DanaK! As long as they don’t kill him off or assassinate his character the way PD did with Halsted. Fortunately the nature of this show makes cover stories fairly easy and believable, with the door open for Taylor whenever he’s ready. Link to comment
Artsda January 21, 2023 Share January 21, 2023 Severide carries the show, they should probably ask Casey back to fill in. Or look for another male lead to fill in. Or else Stella will be carrying it. 😐 2 1 Link to comment
KeithJ January 21, 2023 Share January 21, 2023 Maybe they can make him an undercover arson investigator that takes him off the show for a while. lol I have a feeling this is just going to make Stella even more unbearable now. 2 1 Link to comment
NJRadioGuy January 21, 2023 Share January 21, 2023 4 hours ago, KeithJ said: Maybe they can make him an undercover arson investigator that takes him off the show for a while. lol This would make a lot of sense. Send him off to Fire Investigating School for formal training and state certification (in reality, after a bit of light Googling, it's a 3-week full-time course). Assuming Kinney comes back to the show, they'd now have a viable career path for Severide if Kinney doesn't want to do the heavy action stuff any more. And fire investigation is certainly within the purview of the show, and uses far less effects and staging budget resources that heavy rescue scenes. 2 Link to comment
FnkyChkn34 January 21, 2023 Share January 21, 2023 If the writers are smart, I think Severide will just get a recoverable injury or take a vacation and he'll be off screen for a bit. Once an episode someone will ask Stella how he is, and she'll give an update. But that's not the smart part - the smart part is that Stella will take a backseat too, and we'll get more stories for a character we know very little about: Gallo, Ritter, or even the new guy. My pick would be Ritter, he seems like a background player lately. 1 Link to comment
SilverLake0315 January 23, 2023 Share January 23, 2023 I hope Taylor is ok and it's nothing serious. There was a time when I would have been really sad about Severide's absence but, unfortunately, Stella has ruined that character for me. 1 Link to comment

anna0852 July 19, 2023 Share July 19, 2023 Not surprising. ABC pushed most of their scripted stuff to midseason as well. Hopefully this gives Taylor time work out whatever caused the leave of absence. 3 Link to comment

NJRadioGuy December 1, 2023 Share December 1, 2023 Since I'm betting this is very much a cost-cutting measure, I'd suggest maybe the show could just phase out the Engine company and the Ambulance and just focus on T81, R3, and the DDC. Real-world station closures and company amalgamations are a thing, but the most problematic issue would be the engine for a number of reasons here. I do wish One Chicago as a franchise could stop with the cast turnover for a while, though. 2 Link to comment
