Chicago Fire has always been a reliable performer for NBC but the one-two punch of airing behind This Is Us this season has allowed it to reach a big milestone.
With a 1.7 in the 18-49 demo on Tuesday, Chicago Fire carried over the momentum at 10 PM, inching up a tenth from last week to also match its best demo L+SD delivery of the season. This was the 40th consecutive time an original Fire has won the 10 PM hour in adults 18-49 versus regular ABC-CBS competition, dating back to February 2015. The demo number was later adjusted up to a 1.8 with the final numbers were released, which matched its season high.
