Chicago Story is an NBC drama that aired in the spring of 1982.
Synopsis
The series followed the work and lives of several Chicago lawyers, police officers, and doctors. The series was similar to Hill Street Blues in that it was less about action scenes and more about the stresses of working in law enforcement and medicine. The show did not catch on with viewers and lasted only thirteen episodes.
Intermixed within, especially during the opening title sequence, was plenty of Chicago scenery, including the John Hancock Center, Sears Tower; Aon Center, (back when it was known as the Standard Oil Building), the Chicago Theater and its famous marquee; Lake Shore Drive, the Chicago Water Tower; Marina City; the Chicago 'L' and various other sights.
Chicago Story was notable for attempting to air an hour and a half per episode. The show was pared down to an hour per episode late in its run, including broadcasting edited versions of episodes that had already aired.
