#9 1 1 lonestar season 3

[krittec]

the only thing i hate about 9-1-1 is that it never airs in the UK when it airs in the US so everything is spoiled bc i would’ve loved to watch bi buck as it happened than on twitter. would much rather have an awful sleep schedule and get it live than this

[buddieisgoingcanon25]

First of all, I‘m a Fan of Lonestar. Since this is cancelled, I rewatched recently some older episodes. And there were Buck, Eddie and Hen in one of them. I liked there dynamic and began watching 9-1-1. I watched not all of the episodes (I’m in Season 5), but I have YouTube and the Bi-Buck-Arc didn‘t go by me last year. The first video, what I saw, was Buck‘s talk with Maddie about Eddie and his new friend. I never thought about the possibility, that Buck wants to be with that friend. The end with the kiss was really surprising. And I thought, why was all this episode about Eddie? But in the end Buck wanted Tommys attention all this episode? I can‘t understand it up to date. It is like they changed the end plot mid shooting.

And since I saw Tommy in Season 2, I hate him. Sorry, nothing can convince me otherwise.

And I love the dynamic between Eddie and Buck. They remind me of my all time favourite Duo - Steve and Danno (H 5-O). These two were platonic, but between Buck and Eddie is so much more.

Tim Minear could do great things with these two. There is more to the LGBTQ+ and he could show it.

But Tim brings back the man, who was a racist and homophob and let him be Buck’s boyfriend. And then he breaks them up, to let them hook-up, theoretical break-up again, to let him be back. Come on, what is this a fucking Daily-Soap/Telenovela? I hate this writing.

In Lonestar wasn‘t all perfect, but the storyline was more linear than this.

Perhabs Tim should think about this and than rewatch this Season before he writes the last 2 episodes.

I know, this is done, but there must be a plan. He can‘t implicate something like: Buck is in love with Eddie, or that Eddie is a competition to Tommy and than not come back to this? The audience asks questions, when something like this comes up. Or is this only in the fandom and the GA never questions something like this?

And one last question. How much has ABC as network to say in the production process of one of their shows? Could they say, Ryan should go and lfrj must be a main next season (what I unfortunately see next season, how shitty this would be)?

1. You’re right it’s not a soap opera/telenovela. It’s a procedural on network.

2. They better go back to 8x11 somehow and bring back those conversations about Buddie. Or else it doesn’t make sense.

3. Ryan isn’t leaving.

As today is the Fall Finale for 911 Lonestar & Thursday is the Fall Finale for 911 & Doctor Odyssey I feel like we’re all gonna get for punched in the gut with a bunch of Near Death Experiences (NDE) this week

*Correction - 911 LS Fall Finale is Dec 2nd (however I could still see a NDE happening tonight based on the promo so we’ll see) Ty abazoochyk for the correction 🙏🏻

For Lonestar I’m theorizing one of the following:

1) The soup man (we know he gets shot from the promo)

2) Carlos - he’s supposed to be getting a major clue this episode regarding his father’s murderer which

A) could cause a target on his back

B) cause him to do something reckless and get hurt

3) TK

A) we know he’s in the house where Campbell gets shot with the other Rangers so he could take a bullet meant for someone else (probably Carlos if this is the case but could be another member of the 126 or a Ranger as well)

B) to follow up on Carlos maybe putting a target on his back, they could decide to go after TK as a warning for Carlos

For 911

In the promo we saw Eddie & Buck trying to free the two people stuck in the car that’s filling up with water

Both Eddie and Buck have a history with water, they’ve been doing a LOT of call backs this season, & they highlighted Chris’s love for water

So NDE could be

1) Buck or Eddie in the car

2) Buck and Eddie in the car

3) Plot twist - Chris in Texas has a NDE with water

4) Buck &/or Eddie in the car, survive - get a call about Chris

5) Bobby - Brad is obsessed with him, could accidentally hurt him trying to “help” or in anger if he’s not getting the attention he wants

6) Buck, Brad’s obsession with Bobby leads him to hurting Buck

7) Athena, Sparks loses his mind and goes after Athena

8) Chimney, he’s happy with his family expanding and he was worried about something happening to Maddie so surprise twist! he’s the one in danger instead

9) Hen - hasn’t had one since the 911 / 911 LS crossover I believe, maybe this episode is gonna gun for her just for that?

For Doctor Odyssey

1) Op in this post, Cassodre made an excellent argument for why Tristan is going to have a NDE as he’s not seen in the infirmary when Max & Avery are twice

2) Avery had appendicitis & Tristan got carbon monoxide poisoning so it could be Max’s turn and Tristan’s absence in the promo is a red herring

What I’m most worried about is not the potential NDEs themselves exactly (if there are any I already know it’s gonna make me 😵‍💫 so I’m prepared lol) but if there is any (or even multiple) NDEs that are not resolved by the end of the episode and we’ll have to wait THREE MONTHS to find out what happens (for 911 & DO)… 🫨🫨🫨

Anyways I’m really to be a wreck this week : )

[andacherrycoke]

911 started with 7 main cast members in season 1, 3 of which were white

Lonestar started with 9 mains, 4 of whom were white

Nashville is starting with at least 4-5 white people out of a cast size that we don’t yet know, and I’m not sure if it’s actually been stated what roles all four of them will have. I assume mains since they got announcements, but I don’t know if that’s absolutely for sure.

So basically, I still don’t love that we’ve gotten nothing but white actor announcements so far but it could still end up at least close to on par with the other two shows, and in both 911 and Lonestar’s cases, both shows actually had an even smaller percentage of white people as main cast members going into season 2

[pumpkinprincess22]

When watching particularly emotionally intense episodes of 9-1-1 or Lonestar (so like over half of them) it it’s important to remember the three key rules:

1) Children under the age of sixteen* don’t die unless it is part of a main character’s backstory. e.g. Bobby’s kids or Marjan’s friend (that one is a bit complicated because they try and trick the audience into thinking it’s not a backstory at first but the rule technically holds up)

2) Pets who are seen onscreen alive will not die in the episode. E.g. The dog in the earthquake or the season 8 plane emergency

3) Main characters are immortal. I don’t need to provide examples for this one do I?

*the girl Hen hits with her ambulance and the cheerleader were both 16 or older so 16 is a wobbly line but under 16 they’re safe.

I find it important to remember these rules in times of stress. Especially during Masks

9-1-1: Lone Star Countdown Tag Game

thanks @bonheur-cafe @she-walked-away @lonestar-s5countdown !!

(1) Which character death in 911 Lone Star hit you the hardest?

Hit me the hardest in terms of most impactful and lasting repercussions on the rest of the show? Gabriel. Hit me the hardest as in surprised me the most? Charles. The only one I didn’t see coming

(2) What is your favorite grief-related moment in the show?

The end of 4x17 through the start of 4x18. I love tarlos getting ready for the funeral and actually seeing the funeral. And then that beautiful couch scene at the beginning of 4x18 with Carlos clearly suffering and finally seeking some comfort from TK 😭

(3) Do you think there will be a character death in season 5? If so, any guesses about who it might be?

Hm. Nobody specifically I’m suspecting, but maybe!

(4) Which living character's death would destroy you the most?

TK and Carlos equally. I would grieve that irl. Honestly, it might be less painful if they both died because then one of them wouldn’t have to grieve the other, but still. 0/10. Never want to experience. Nightmare material

(5) Which character's childhood trauma do you think was most significant in shaping them?

definitely Owen. Everything from his job to his family

tagging @reyesstrand @tellmegoodbye @paperstorm @carlos-in-glasses if you haven’t yet + open tag!

911 Lone Star Countdown - Disasters Week Questions

Hello and thank you for including me @lonestar-s5countdown! This is a little trickier for me to answer tbh. I think 9-1-1 might stand to have longer-lasting consequences from their natural disasters (no need to skip past tsunami wreckage recovery or months-long rebuilding of the highway collapse, those would make some meaty dramatic narrative arcs), but otherwise it so far edges out Lone Star when it comes to order of experience (like, which state got which disaster first).

1) My favorite disaster… okay, gonna have to divvy btwn the 9-1-1s for this!

The plane crash in 9-1-1 (OG) would probably be my underrated favorite in terms of narrative developments for Buck, Bobby and Abby.

Season 4’s heat wave was more glossed over for plot setup, but I didn’t mind this natural disaster precisely because it was a little smaller in scale and because the plot setups (even the Iris arc tho that definitely needed fine tuning in hindsight) hooked me in already. (I also didn’t mind Brianna and Caleb in this one b/c this time Caleb’s situation was not his own fault.)

2) Since they’ve already done tornadoes (though, there’s always a chance they’ll do those again), a volcanic eruption, wildfires and a winter storm, I would think the only disasters LS hasn’t gotten down yet are freeway collapses, floods (barring how the cast would look while soaking wet, don’t ignore areas like Galveston, writers! There’s WAY more to the state than farmland, Dallas, Austin and El Paso yk! Let’s just say before I digress I kinda wish the showrunners were able to film in actual Texas), a border skirmish (just out of genuine interest— not getting any more political and no Owen’s refugee rescue doesn’t count) or droughts/ water shortages (no, heat waves also don’t count). I also just realized that the domestic terrorist arc could have waited for a later season too! O’Brien and Owen had chaotic good vibes much akin to him and Billy Tyson (if the three of them worked together tho? The 126 should probably move their whole firefighter team out of Travis County b/c they ain’t gonna go through the second-hand pain again).

3) They had and lost me at meteor/ asteroid, so I’m not sure I’d say looking forward to it. It all depends on execution, I suppose? (Sorry for the question mark, I’m just baffled since that usually needs film-length amount of time— I’ve seen the film Deep Impact. Scientific nitpicks aside the investigations, action and future implications in that film were well-paced enough.)

4) My top 3? Judd b/c he’s a great all-around leader whenever shit hits the fan— honest (sometimes to a fault but I can kinda relate), strong integrity and conscientiousness, and so dad-like even before he became a dad. Mateo b/c he’d be like the underrated badass youngest brother of any group— speaking as an only child tho. Third… boy, I can’t break this tie. It’s a draw between Tommy (she’s very composed and professional even during the times she isn’t) and Paul (I’d like to learn memorization-observational skills from him, and he fits the “cool Zen mode” temperament a little better than Carlos, don’t @ me).

5) This is painful… okay I’m so sorry. I don’t think I can answer this one as of now.

Weird, uncomfy moment.

So, like, I've not actually been involved in watching a TV show that I like enough to even vaguely poke at the fandom of since, like. Maybe 2013?

Have I watched tv shows or big fandom darlings since then? Sure? I guess?

But I've not actually 1. watched a tv show 2. enjoyed said tv show 3. mentally engaged with art about said tv show AND 4. wanted to talk about said tv show since roughly that time period.

Cue my surprise that My Hero Academia kind of slow-rolled me into that head space AND THEN @ponyregrets accidentally got me interested in trying out 9-1-1 (The show where Angela Bassett gets a bag and makes out with Peter Krause). FYI, that's 100% the name of the show in my head.

Like, I did my time in the Public Services tv spaces for a lot of my life. I've watched the entirety of Law and Order multiple times, including a good chunk of the spin offs. I watched JAG and the first few seasons of NCIS. Hell, I watched Touched By An Angel as a youngster (and any tv show that does weird Christian propaganda is gonna get lumped in with that show and bless you, 9-1-1 (TSWABGABAMOWPK), you fall into that category).

But IDK! Its kind of unexpectedly subversive and not just in ways Ryan Murphy joints tend to be? Like, it's almost 47% less weird and creepy in gross ways than I usually expect? It's fun and stupid and things go splodey and all the main characters are written to actually like each other, and all of the background actors are just casually not white and not stick thin. Plus, pretty much everyone's queer or from Minnesota and I genuinely enjoy the weird, insane Situations the calls put everyone in. Each episode is more often a series of vignettes than an actual through plotline and I kinda miss that about modern tv?

Also, I'm passively amused that the two dudes everyone on the internet want to fuck are actually written in a way where that's not just people queerbaiting themselves* into believing it's a plotline?

It's pretty neat!

Is it high art? No. Neither are any of the other properties I mentioned (and enjoyed!) above! But honestly? I'm having a nice time! Though, I am deeply confused why this series only has two seasons (1 and 7) of physical media releases and even my MVP's in Malaysia don't have the rest on DVD. But all the Lonestar seasons are everywhere? (We don't have time to talk about how my irrational hatred of Rob Lowe outweighs my adoration for Gina Torres, but that was a journey I went on with myself, so you're welcome.)

*Like, I have a whole lot to say about people who get petulant and shitty when they like X and Y character together and if said characters who are a.) not written in a narrative way where that will ever make sense without a whole lot of character growth or assassination and b.) are written to actively not like each other as people because of fundamental value differences don't get together onscreen/in the source. IDK, I'm old, so I remember when we (as fans) were all shocked when het couples got together onscreen. I mean, the term 'shipper' comes out of people labeling themselves as people who enjoyed what they perceived as romantic tension between Mulder and Scully and that the wider X-Files fandom thought they were delusional for interpreting as romantic. And I still fucking say Mulder's ace. Fight me.

https://www.tumblr.com/sevensoulmates/748150924126666752/deeper-depths-of-his-queer-love-the-realization

See I both love this and hate it. Love it because it’s very well thought out. And this so many details. But I hate it because realistically I just don’t see the show going to a 10th season so if they don’t actually get together until 9b, assuming the show stays at its 18 episode count, we’d get 9 episodes of them together and that’s it. And after all these years of waiting that is just… not enough time and would start to feel to much like a oh well it was the end of the show so what do we have to lose here ya go.

Maybe I would've agreed with you just after season 6 ended and the announcement of a shift to ABC. I might've thought then they don't have many seasons left but I've changed my mind about that over the last few months since they started heavily promoting season 7. ABC said that they want to keep 911 going as long as they can, and they even said they want to continue making spin-offs like Lonestar (hopefully better than Lonestar) in different cities in the U.S. That doesn't sound like a network that wants to cut 9-1-1 off after season 9.

I'm sorry but a network that approved Grey's Anatomy to have 20+ seasons is ABSOLUTELY gonna approve 9-1-1, their number one money maker right now, to have 10+ seasons. I'm fully expecting to get to AT LEAST season 12, and I'm being so fucking serious.

ESPECIALLY if 9-1-1 actually follows through with the groundwork they're setting up right now with Buck and Eddie. I'm not kidding when I say, if you feed your fanbase they'll keep coming back for more for the rest of time like a feral cat to your house after you feed them. Once people catch wind that buddie went canon, they're gonna be throwing money at ABC so fast that ABC just might approve an additional 3 seasons right then and there.

As for the second part of your question, no. I don't think the show would just throw buddie at us at the end to "throw us a bone" once the show's slated to end for real. If they didn't do that at Fox when they had a real chance of wrapping it up for good, they're not gonna do that with ABC. "What do we have to lose" doesn't feel like the right mindset here. If that was the case, they never would've had Buck come out in early season 7. That was their riskiest first step, and it paid off, and now they have proof that they have SO MUCH to gain if they actually explore these stories organically with enough time to feel satisfied. So, no, I don't think we're just gonna get them shoved into the end with no development.

And I also just think that this fandom and casual viewers/journalists too, vastly underestimate how much these writers care about these characters and the story they're telling here. Yes, I do think that some of the writers have shown biases (KR) and have made some missteps in handling storylines, but again, they're beholden to a whole chain of bosses and external circumstances. BUT I think at the core, this show WOULD NOT EVER have been so beloved by many if the writers did not CARE about these characters deeply. So no, I don't think the writers would just "throw" anything at these characters just to placate viewers unless they really think it's necessary or works for the character arc. Yes, that includes things like Marisol and Natalia or "Shoehorned in" plots. I think the writers do their best to do right by these characters to the best of their ability. And I think that's so INCREDIBLY rare both in the past and currently.

So yeah, sometimes the writers make mistakes or don't handle plots the best in certain circumstances but when it comes to the bigger picture I never once questioned that they care and want to give these characters the best they're capable of.

My Canadian 9-1-1 Spin-Off Dreams

Okay so this post has reminded me that I have a whole Canadian 9-1-1 spin-off plotted and ready to go, so I'm gonna scream about it here in case anyone cares

It's called 9-1-1 True North obviously (the lyrics in the Canadian national anthem refer to Canada as the "true north, strong and free" and since they went the nickname route with Lonestar, I think True North tracks)

It's set in Vancouver, primarily because if Hollywood is gonna film fucking half their shows there, the least they could do is set something in the actual city! Also, as far as Canadian winters go, it's on the milder side, so they can do one or two snow episodes a season without needing to make it their entire personality. They have the ocean for water emergencies, they're on a faultline for earthquake drama (even if they don't actually feel most of the earthquakes they get like California does), and BC unfortunately also has a terrible wildfire season.

And that's just on the natural disaster front! Vancouver as a city has a lot of interesting social issues to bring in that human element 9-1-1 likes so much. Vancouver's Downtown East Side is often referred to as "Canada's poorest postal code." The city has an incredibly deep socioeconomic divide that exacerbates an ongoing housing and cost of living crisis. It is one of the most ethnically diverse cities in Canada, an estimated 55% of its residents are non-white, and Indigenous folks have called the Vancouver area home for over 10,000 years, specifically members of the Squamish, Musqueam, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations.

Since I've sold you on location, let me line up some vague character profiles to get invested in (bearing in mind, it's gonna feel a bit like the intro to Lonestar where it's just a Diversity Carousel, but I promise, they're actually fleshed out and 3-dimensional in the show, this is just the pitch)

DETS Social Worker Girl. She's a late 20-something with a brand new MSW working at a not-for-profit in the Downtown East Side. Her whole thing is harm reduction and de-escalation and finding ways to help without involving the police. She's got a heart of gold, but also grew up upper-middle-class and has a bit of a White Savior thing going on the show absolutely gets to call her on, and a big part of her arc is learning to be of service without centering herself as the hero.

The Crystal Highway Of Metro Vancouver. If you've watched the Canadian medical drama Skymed (which if you're a 9-1-1 fan who hasn't, get on that immediately) you're familiar with Crys's whole archetype. An Indigenous character who isn't just Indigenous but who the narrative also deeply respects by allowing their Indigenous identity to be a core aspect of who they are. I see his character struggling a bit with that "foot in two worlds" feeling. He brushes elbows with DETS Social Worker on various calls, and their budding romance gets to be the Buck/Abby slash TK/Carlos romantic backbone, at least of the first season.

Every Buck Needs An Eddie (And Vice Versa). Because what's an ensemble cast procedural without a Work Bestie dynamic? Buck and Eddie. Chim and Hen. Paul and Marjan. You get it. He's first-generation Indian Canadian, he's a bit of a goof, a sweet sunshine child. Also, since Vancouver is very much Canada's Portland, I don't think it's off the table for him, 9-1-1's Crystal Highway, and DETS Social Worker to end up getting poly with it in later seasons. (Also, I think in the hands of a respectful writing team who ensure their characters are fully fleshed out and not just tokenized representation to tick boxes, a running gag of "not that kind of Indian" between the Work Besties could land)

Disabled Dispatcher Rights. Which I'm a bit surprised neither the OG 9-1-1 or Lonestar has done. 9-1-1 as a franchise does a lot to ensure diversity in its cast, but I think it's time network TV really steps it up with better disability rep. Like Bobby in Trackers proves (and like Felicity Smoak could have proved if the writers hadn't magically fixed her spinal injury) you can be a badass from a desk and contribute just as much to the success of the team, thank you very much.

Firehouse Mom Who Is Tired And Gay. And so butch. So, so butch. Please, ABC I'm begging you. One butch woman on my screen. You can do it. I know you can. We've had Bobby, and we've had Owen, but it's time for a Lady Cap. And while I'm not saying you have to cast Jane Lynch... I just think you should think about it.

In short, the next 9-1-1 should be set in Vancouver, and if I can get just 10 minutes alone in a room with Tim Minear, I think he'll see the vision...

[bam-bi-buck]

As much as I would love for 9-1-1 to continue on and on, at some point the show will end (😭)

I wonder if we’ll see each one of the 118’s career trajectory before it ends

We know at some point Bobby will retire and we know that Hen is on track to become Captain

What about the others?

I do think Chim, Buck, & Eddie could end up staying at the 118 under Hen’s captaincy if they chose for her to remain at the 118 as Captain as they could do a storyline where’s she’s offered a captaincy somewhere else

If she were to remain at 118 as Captain after Bobby I do believe the others would be happy under her captaincy just as they are Bobby’s

That is one way 9-1-1 could end with Bobby’s retirement and Hen taking over (if Peter stays on the entire duration of 9-1-1)

However that isn’t the only way they could end the story

Chim has acted as Captain before but he did have a difficult time figuring out his captaincy style and dealt with two major tragedies regarding his crew - Shannon’s Death & Freddie targeting the 118

This could have impacted his overall view of captaincy and make it so he’d rather just stay in his current position, I believe when Bobby was choosing an interim captain in S6(?) Chim even said absolutely not or something to that effect

He could also be Hen’s lieutenant (Just realized, unlike in Lonestar we don’t see anything about Lieutenants - so I looked up the rankings, apparently LAFD doesn’t have them and have Firefighter ranks 1, 2, & 3 instead? Interesting��� so never mind on that idea lol)

Anyways, he’s shown no problems working under Hen, but he has shown discontent at the idea of Hen not being his partner (when Hen was starting her journey to become a Doctor) so while he may have no problems working for interim Captain Hen, it might be hard for him to lose her as a partner completely

Would that inspire him to become a captain himself? It would be a really good storyline for him to overcome any doubts he may have due to his previous experience as Captain

Or would be ultimately decide that he’d rather continue working with Hen even if they aren’t partners, that would also make a good storyline

I think one problem if they go that route is who becomes his partner? More on that later

For Buck, I do think he could continue as a firefighter and be happy but we have seen them start to sow the seeds for him also to pursue captaincy, such as him trying to be a good candidate when Bobby was looking for a interim captain as referenced above and at the end of season six we saw him take charge of an entire scene and save everyone

And even in this current season we’ve seen him use his smarts to solve a lot of problems

He would make an amazing captain- however he would then have to lose part of his 118 family - not entirely but partially if they’re no longer working together (if they are in fact continuing with Hen becoming a captain trajectory which I’m pretty sure they will)

So if Buck also goes down the captaincy route himself there’s several options

1) Hen becomes Captain of the 118 and he later becomes Captain of another house

2) Hen is offered Captaincy elsewhere and Chim becomes Captain of 118 and Buck becomes captain of another house

3) Both Hen and Chim become captains elsewhere and Buck becomes the 118 captain

That could be a good storyline for Buck, having to accept his family going down different career paths and choosing a career path that’s good for him and helps him grow as a person, not based on trying to keep everyone under the 118 roof and realizing they’ll always be a family even if they’re no longer working together

Eddie though, I don’t think he’s shown any interest in becoming a Captain

When Chim was searching for Maddie Eddie was partnered more with Hen, (and I believe we’ve seen Hen as interim Captain and Eddie helping Chim? might be misremembering that) and this season we’ve seen Eddie work with Hen and Chim

They have been emphasizing his skills as a medic this season as well

We could see Hen become Captain and Eddie become a paramedic and Chim’s partner

I think that would be hard for everyone involved, Chim not having Hen as a partner, and Eddie and Buck not working as partners anymore

If he doesn’t become a full time paramedic, he’d probably remain Buck’s partner as long as Buck remains a firefighter (if Buck does go the captaincy route)

Eddie has also stated the he enjoys the camaraderie of firefighting, not that the Captain can’t be apart of that, but they are held a bit apart from the rest, that’s just one of the effects of being a leader

He’s also shrugged off the idea of being even interim captain, like when he talked about it with Buck when Buck was frustrated to not being in the running

Unless they start sowing the seeds for him to be interested in captaincy as well, I just don’t see it happening based off his current trajectory/attitude

If he does become a captain then it’s a similar situation as Buck above

If Buck becomes captain and he doesn’t, I imagine he’d want to go with him or be a full time paramedic on his team unless #buddiecanon happens and and then they may have to be separated (as this is a show and not real life they may decide they can remain in the same house if one of them becomes Captain even if I’m not sure that would happen irl, idk)

But then if they are separated by the brass and Chim doesn’t become captain I’d imagine he’d stay with Hen & Chim and if both Hen and Chim become Captain then he’d stay with one of them if he couldn’t stay with Buck for any reason

There is another possibility of them all who become a captain remaining at the 118 and ending up as captains of different 118 shifts but I can’t really see any of them wanting to give up A shift or wanting to go have alternative shifts as the others as that would make spending time together as a family outside of the firehouse even harder and losing both firehouse time together and outside of firehouse time together would wreck all of them

I have no idea if the show will end with us knowing what future paths they follow career wise but I think it’s interesting to think about where they may take them if they do
