Taylor Kinney knows how to weave an intriguing tale or two, and one reason the “Chicago Fire” star is humble and refuses to be complacent comes from an experience he learned after shooting the 2006 TV series “Fashion House.” Check out my video below, along with a partial transcript of Kinney’s story which, by the way, also deals with his mother, blowing $90,000 on sushi, a Mexican restaurant, and working one’s a** off in San Diego!!
Tonight’s episode of Chicago Fire (NBC, 10 pm et/pt) continues the investigation on the fire which killed Shay (Lauren German), as Severide (Taylor Kinney) discovers an unexpected source that may provide important information on the case.
Speaking of sources, Chicago Fire technical advisor/fireman Steve Chikerotis has been invaluable to the cast and crew of the production. Check out the video below as Taylor Kinney, Jesse Spencer, and Eamonn Walker talk about Chikerotis’ (he retired from active duty in November 2014) impact on the show:

Chicago Fire stars Jesse Spencer, Taylor Kinney, andEamonn Walkertook part in last week’s Television Critics Association Press tour in Pasadena, and during the radio roundtables the trio were in good spirits. Although the storylines from Chicago Fire are often tragic (and ultimately resonant), it was refreshing to see the actors bring a dash of humor and levity into the proceedings.

Case in point: Eamonn Walker playfully coaxes Jesse Spencer to recount an experience which had the actor use his own knowledge as “Chicago Fire” member Matthew Casey.
Check out the video below as Spencer talks about remaining cool under pressure while being stuck in an elevator at the Capitol Building.
