Chicago Fire Fans On Reddit Make Their Dislike For Peter Mills Clear – Looper
A poll posted to the “Chicago Fire” subreddit by u/Professional_Wall_61 in 2022 asked fans who their least-favorite character on the show is. Professional_Wall_61 admitted their least-favorite character was Peter Mills. The subreddit’s users backed him up, giving Peter 140 votes and outpacing his nearest competitor Stella Kidd (Miranda Rae Mayo), by over 100 nods for the victory.
Several replying fans said that Mills annoyed them with his hardheadedness and willfulness, but many pointed out specific reasons why they disliked him. U/Bruticus1120 said they had no problem with him until the events of “Prove It” in Season 2. Peter’s inability to keep a proper professional distance from the situation at large, charging into his family’s burning restaurant to save some heirlooms and endangering his teammates, turned u/Bruticus1120 against Mills. But the character has his defenders on the subreddit, with fans naming other characters more annoying than him, such as Matt Casey.
While Peter is happily running a rebuilt version of his family’s restaurant elsewhere, Charlie Barnett has expressed dismay over how his dismissal from the show occurred. “I really was sad to be let go. It broke me for quite a long time,” he told Digital Spy in April 2022. Yet, in the end, he was grateful that the show chose to let him go. “You never see the bad moments becoming the good. It wouldn’t be. It wouldn’t be what it was; I think, if you did recognize it for what it is in the moment.” Since he’s subsequently landed roles on shows such as “Russian Doll,” it seems that he ended up right where he needed to be.
