It was introduced throughout Season 13 that Daniel Kyri, who performs the firefighter, was one among two solid members not returning in Season 14, however the finale didn’t write him out. (Showrunner Andrea Newman had instructed us forward of time that was the case and he or she hoped to have him and Jake Lockett again this fall.) And now, social media posts from August 4 affirm that Kyri shall be seem in Season 14 as Ritter.

The Season 13 finale didn’t trace at an exit storyline for Ritter. Nonetheless, close to the tip of the season, an auditor did warn of modifications coming to the CFD.
“We wished to play as a result of it’s very true to what’s taking place now on the planet, this auditor coming in and saying, ‘Look, CFD is cleansing home, and issues are going to get shaken up,’ and there’s no one secure on this shakeup,” Newman instructed us after the finale. “So subsequent season goes to be about how the s**t actually hits the fan as soon as that mandate comes down and the way issues get shaken up and the way our staff can maintain collectively as a household whereas all this craziness is going on round them.”
Chances are high that shall be what explains Ritter’s exit — until Chicago Hearth is about to kill him off in dramatic trend, because it has a number of characters earlier than. (We actually hope that’s not the case.)
