The Fact That Theres ALREADY FANART

I really enjoy things better when I don’t see others opinions cause why are are people so negative about 9-1-1 every fucking episode. Why can’t you just enjoy it for what it is. Also why are fans picking apart the actors interactions and making awful conclusions about their relationships. Like plz stop being actually so miserable.

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

Buck's inner thoughts while watching Eddie leave ft. textposts

I am eating DRYWALL AAAAAH

Further thoughts on Buddie following episodes 8x11.

I'm speculating here, but I think this episode was about setting up a coherent and satisfying narrative around Buck and Eddie's feelings for each other. Look. Buck's recently figured out he's bisexual. If he's going to end up dating Eddie, Eddie needs to come out too. But how do you get two main characters to come out as queer when they've only ever dated women before? That's a wildly convenient coincidence.

(Audiences hate convenient coincidences.)

Now Buck is insisting he's not interested in Eddie. Why isn't he interested in Eddie? Well, Eddie's straight. Okay, that's not really an answer. But it doesn't matter! Because Eddie's straight! Why does everyone think he's in love with his best friend? His best friend is straight!

Suddenly Eddie's sexuality is a question. Is Eddie straight? Why is that important to Buck? What would happen if he wasn't? Fandom has been asking these questions since day one and we've already got more than a few answers of our own. But now Eddie's sexuality is being made salient by the narrative. And we're being told, Buck is not in love with his straight best friend.

So, hypothetically: Eddie comes out as Not Straight. This is no longer a wildly convenient coincidence. It's a complication. (Audiences love complications). Because now Buck has to answer the question that we've just established he does not want to answer. Are you in love with your best friend?

They can also reverse the order. Have Buck answer that question and move on to What Now? In this case, Eddie coming out is now a resolution. (Audiences also love resolutions). I think this is the less interesting path but it's also possible.

Usually when I dissect narratives like this I think in terms of "what I would have done." This is not what I would have done. This is better than what I would have done, because I've never had to convince my audience that People Can Be Queer, Actually, Yes Even Him. I would not have thought to structure it this way. I didn't think to structure it this way, and I've given a lot of thought to how I would hypothetically structure a getting together arc that would be convincing to a mainstream audience. I've been thinking that the only options for Eddie coming out are either Buck is supportive and excited for him as a friend, or Buck is painfully hopeful because he's been pining. Way, way better: Eddie comes out and Buck, who's been insisting for months that just because he's queer doesn't mean he's in love with his best friend, immediately realises he's in love with his best friend. And spirals.

Okay so the snowstorm episodes were a freaking ROLLERCOASTER lemme tell ya. AMAZING spectacular gimme fourteen more of them right now.

Lowkey starting to like Billy too IM JUST SAYING!!!! ME PERSONALLY!!! He’s a loser but he’s sad enough about it to be likeable. Good for him.

Woo hoo! I’m still so excited from last night. People dooming and criticizing RG for his acting? WTH? I thought he was great. I thought the car scene and goodbye scenes were awesome. And to see people who ship Buddie glooming? As someone who hasn’t been in this fandom that long, I don’t even know why some people watch? Do they like being miserable? I see people complaining that they have been burned before and that’s understandable. But then why do they have such an investment in it? And now the slow burn/will they, won’t they people wanted I guess isn’t what they really wanted.

The biggest question is if you hate Eddie, why do you ship Buddie? Crazy.

Listen, I loved this episode so much. It was great entertainment from beginning to end. I was glued to my screen.

But people are allowed to have a different opinion about the episode. That's how life works. You can't always love the same things as everyone else. So I don't really mind that. It's simply a human experience.

But the Ryan hate is crazy. I'm sorry. But it is. The man was so good in last night's episode. He has been consistently great in his acting over the last couple of seasons and some people still feel the need to rag on him. I'm so tired of it.

I said it before and I'll say it again: I'm not a Ryan stan. I like Ryan and he seems like a nice guy, but I'm not a stan. I'm simply an Eddie fan. I don't know too much about Ryan. I don't need to know too much about Ryan. But I do know he is good at what he does. He is a really good solid actor. And his interpretation of Eddie Diaz? Perfection.

As for the Buddie dooming and glooming. I don't know anymore Nonny. I don't understand what people want to happen here? For years we got small scenes between them and then nothing to follow it up anymore. For once we are getting, not only tons of scenes between them, but actual follow up and continuation of their narrative together.

We are living through a real 'will they won't they' slowburn situation where everything is clearly leading somewhere big for Buddie. I don't know what to say to these people anymore, other than 'Buddie is happening'. I'm at a loss at this point. 🤷‍♀️

I think the biggest question here Nonny, is: How could anyone ever hate Eddie Diaz? One of the greatest characters that has ever graced our TV-screens? Incomprehensible. 🧐

the 911 campaign to promote their fake dead bobby storyline is insane, y’all. like, okay, i understand the interviews and making the actors write “goodbye” posts on their socials. but i think that killing the pope for it is taking it a step too far…

So Matt carries around the last bit of Foggy he has when he leaves the apartment?! Puts that damn thing in the pocket that lays right over his heart??!!

You don‘t understand I NEED to know what happened to Chris‘ room. I NEED to know.

Notably when Buck finally moves his stuff into Eddie's house, you see him decorating and moving his stuff in the Living room, and the Kitchen and setting up his (Eddie's) Bedroom but Chris' room remains entirely untouched

Oh my fucking god i just watched the episode „Wilson“ for the first time and holy fuck this is my new favourite episode ever. I could watch an entire show about Wilson being his silly little self im not even kidding.

Just,,, imagine a show about our over-caring oncologist just doing his job, (and doing it incredibly might i add,) with this random crazy-ass best friend somwhere in the background. I could watch a hundred and ten seasons of it I‘m not even kidding. That fucked up crazy little oncologist right there? That’s my babygirl. That’s my pookie. That is my kin. Give him the world pls and thank you

Like I feel like we as a fandom gloss over the fact how great Wilson really is at his job. My man realised a patient got a brain tumor because he didn’t want to talk about his grandkids. Like??? All the while being extremely focused on a different case of his, and handling all his other ones as well.

House always makes fun of him for it, but he really is an amazing doctor, all the while being such a calm and comforting presence… no wonder all his patients love him!!

He’s like a big walking-talking teddy bear handing out cancer diagnoses!
