ONE CHICAGO Crossover: Allen MacDonald, Andrea Newman, and Gwen Sigan Preview the Emotional, Action-Packed ‘In The Trenches’

More than five years after the ONE CHICAGO franchise staged a three-show crossover—for 2019’s “Infection”—the NBC dramas are back, united, trying to save Chicago on the Wednesday, January 29 event, “In The Trenches.”

“[There’s a] gas main explosion that destabilizes a huge building and then causes an underground avalanche that traps a subway car,” CHICAGO MED showrunner Allen MacDonald tells Give Me My Remote in the video below. “There’s a lot of people killed, and there are a lot of survivors…[who] survived the initial situation that go to [Gaffney Chicago Medical Center], and that’s where the MED hour lives—in trying to keep those people alive.” 

“There’s a bit of question in the three hours if this explosion was an accident or on purpose, and PD[‘s Intelligence] is very much looking into that,” he continues. “And FIRE[‘s Firehouse 51]  is trying to get the situation under control because there are people trapped under the surface and want to get them up.”

And, as the promo teased, “A big emotional centerpiece of the MED hour is…[CHICAGO P.D.’s] Trudy Platt’s life is very much on the line,” MacDonald previews.
