Firehouse 51 was represented by stars Jesse Spencer (Lt. Matt Casey), Taylor Kinney (Lt. Kelly Severide) and Eamonn Walker (Chief Boden).

“P.D.’s” team consisted of Sophia Bush (rookie federal tast forcer Erin Lindsay) and Jesse Lee Soffer (Jay Halstead).

Rounding out the talent pool was none other than the creator of both shows, veteran TV producer Dick Wolf (“Law & Order”).
