It’s not known why the franchise is taking another break so soon after returning from the month-long hiatus caused by NBC’s coverage of the Winter Olympics, although some have speculated that it could be down to the showrunners needing more time to finish post-production work on the episodes. Others have suggested that March Madness, the name given the frenzy surrounding the NCAA Basketball tournament, could be the cause with bosses keen not to compete with the huge sporting event. In the latest instalment of the firefighter drama, it was revealed that Kara Killmer, who plays Sylvie Brett, would be bowing out of the show indefinitely. Her character made the decision to move to Portland to be with her partner Matthew Casey – who fans saw leave earlier this season – after realizing that occasional weekends weren’t enough to keep their romance going. Elsewhere, viewers also saw Miranda Rae Mayo’s Stella Kidd settle into her new role as Lieutenant while also making amends with Andy Allo’s Wendy Seager after the latter expressed feelings for Stella’s fiance Kelly Severide, played by Taylor Kinney.
