Why Chicago Fire Season 14 Is The Perfect Time To Bring Back Gabby Dawson
After Gabby left, Casey eventually started a romance with her best friend, Brett. Understandably, the move has been one of the most
divisive plots in the show. This was a primary narrative hindrance for her return, considering that it would have complicated Casey and
Brett’s relationship — something that Chicago Fire was setting up to work like Kelly Severide and Stella Kidd’s romance.

Now that Casey and Brett are both gone from Firehouse 51, as they have moved to Oregon, the NBC procedural no longer has to deal with the awkwardness that comes with Gabby coming back. It can either be a one-time cameo or a recurring guest star stint, but regardless, seeing Raymund return in Chicago Fire would be a massive treat for fans.

Now, Larracunte has officially made the jump from one Wolf Entertainment series to another, as On Call has officially been canceled. Aside from being an exciting addition to Firehouse 51, his transfer also sets the precedent for Raymund potentially following suit, making Gabby’s reunion with her former co-worker in Chicago more possible than ever.

After she left One Chicago, Raymund continued working on other TV shows. Her most prominent one came in 2020, when she landed the lead role in Starz’s crime show, Hightown, which she also produced and directed. The project ran for 3 seasons and ended in 2024. She followed it up with a role in On Call, playing Maria Delgado.
The character only appeared in the premiere episode, which ended in a tragic demise for Raymund’s Maria. That said, the role is still significant, since it marked her first Wolf Entertainment project since leaving Chicago Fire at the end of season 6. This inched her closer to possibly coming back to the NBC procedural.
While her exit from One Chicago went down amicably, it’s still important that even after all of these years, she continues to have a good working relationship with Wolf Entertainment. With Larracuente making the jump from On Call to Chicago Fire, it isn’t outside the realm of possibility that Raymund can follow in his footsteps.
It’s possible that during Raymund’s reunion with the people at Wolf Entertainment, conversations about future collaborations cropped up. While a new project is possible, especially considering how the company likes to work repeatedly with its actors, a return in Chicago Fire season 14 for Gabby is perhaps the easiest and the most clamored.
