Hooray! Possibly five more weeks of hot, shirtless men!

NBC has ordered five more scripts for Chicago Fire, which stars Lady Gaga's boyfriend Taylor Kinney and former House hunk Jesse Spencer.

So just how has the Dick Wolf show been doing in the ratings?

Definitely respectably.

Last night the firefighter drama averaged a 1.8 rating for adults 18-49 and 6.3 million viewers. While Chicago Fire finished third in its 10 p.m. time slot, behind CSI and Nashville, overall it was up 20 percent, whereas Nashville just held steady.
