Comments

The wording did sound familiar so I guess that's the reason... Makes sense to focus on it being about Tommy at this point. But I still would say that the doors still are open for other interpretations that would make just as much sense.

I was waiting for you to react to this episode!!! I was feeling the tension all the way over here! ❤️😍😍😍

Michaela Evans

also they were originally going to make eddie and tommy a thing but the plan changed so i still have hope😊

Lexsi (canyonlwt28)

my biggest issue is in the end buck tells tommy he was trying to get his attention that whole time but just before that buck told maddie he was trying to get eddies attention… on top of that buck lifting weights in front of eddie literally had nothing to do with tommy😭 how was that getting his attention. idk i just hope that comes back up eventually bc even tommy was like “my attention?” like it doesn’t make sense. u can definitely make the tommy argument off the other scenes but the weight room scene is crazy.

Lexsi (canyonlwt28)

So he can terrorize gay men? I think not. The boy is straight. LOL

Bryce Lee Wynn

Yessss bi buck love it !! lol Eddie next pls let him stop terrorizing the women of LA

Kendra valdez

I am actually quoting the showrunner when I say it was always about Tommy. Those are his own words.

Simone

lmao

When this episode aired on TV. I screamed so loud that my upstairs neighbor banged on my ceiling and told me to keep it down. My apartment building's walls are incredibly thin.

I am currently watching the current season of 9-1-1 on tv weekly. I couldn't wait for Travis to watch this episode. I have been waiting since April 4 when it aired on ABC. I somehow missed that Buck was bi. Until, he started stuttering . And somehow I missed the past references in the show as well. I guess my massive crush on Oliver Stark and Ryan Guzman distracted from the bi references throughout the show. Also, that's Lou Ferrigno's son!

Ashley Downey

I will be rooting for Buck and Eddie until the end. But I am happy that they actually have Buck being a boy and girl kisser :)

Tessa Noble

Travis turned into a soprano at the end there lol. I wish I could say that I wasn't wearing headphones, but I was, unfortunately (RIP my ears 😂😂😂). Buck was about as jealous as you can get. I definitely didn't have the reaction you had to the ending, Travis. I was like, "Cool," and went on with my day lol

Ilsuk Yang

I am so excited to see your reaction to the next episode! This reaction was great!

Emily Bahu

I wouldn't necessarily say "it was always about Tommy", I still think it could be about both Eddie and Tommy but I do think it's great how different interpretations that make sense can exist for this episode. Yes he clearly showed interest in Tommy even before Eddie showed up so it would make sense that it was always about getting his attention. But also, he could be projecting his feelings for Eddie onto Tommy without realizing as he did also try to be noticed by Eddie when Tommy wasn't around. Or also it can be a combination of feeling attracted to both of them (and not necessarily realizing it) and ending up in an even more complicated mess of feelings. But either way, knowing how the episode ends, I agree that Buck being interested in Tommy definetely doesn't come as out of nowhere as it may seem on the first glance.

NamlessMidnight

I think by the end of Chimney Begins the apology from Tommy was quite clearly implied even if not directly stated. Also by Bobby Begins Again he was shown to be friendly with Hen and Chimney so I always thought it was obvious that he did start acting better after Chimney saved him and even if we weren't shown the apology on screen it was clear that he had changed. That being said I can see both perspectives on him and don't really have a firm opinion on him myself.

NamlessMidnight

Now this was definetely just as entertaining of a reaction to that scene as expected 🤣

NamlessMidnight

I agree with you that the show is problematic for hand waving past behaviors, but Chimney apologized to Buck. There’s a scene right after he comes back from Boston where he tells Hen that he apologized to him. I missed it the first time too but caught it when I watched Travis’s reaction. Should they have shown it on screen? Yes. But at least they mentioned it.

Susie D

loved your reaction haha i think we all reacted pretty much the same way our first time watching 🤣

Taylor

I’m so sorry that was spoiled for you, I would’ve been mad too! I definitely agree with you about Tommy. I also think that if he had been on for more episodes before this one, it would have been good to see more development. As someone offended by comments that character made, that he never apologized for, it was hard for me to enjoy having him on my screen. But that is just me, no judgement to others that view him differently even if I don’t agree ❤️

Sunchi

Sorry, but the show never shows us important apologies (Chim for punching Buck, Eddie for his horrible words to Bobby in s5, etc). Just gotta come to terms with that. It's still very much alluded to that he did, hence why he did become friends with Hen and Chim.

Simone

You finally got to the bi Buck episode!!!! I LOVED your reaction to the kiss! Priceless! In terms of ships I'm team Buck+Happiness. I adore buddie's relationship whether romantic or not. Also, not becoming romantic wouldn't make what they have any less meaningful or important imo, either direction the show decides to take is fine by me as long as they all end up happy. I do very much enjoy the chemistry between Tommy and Buck as well so I kinda can't lose as far as ships are concerned. (three cheers for multi-shipping, amiright?) Anyhow, I knew your reaction to this episode would be super fun to watch and you did not disappoint. :-D

R. Smith

Unfortunately, I was spoiled for what happened in this one when I originally watched. I was so mad. On one hand, I’m thrilled for bi representation. On the other, Tommy has made no apologies up to this point for contributing to the racist, sexist environment the 118 was when he was there. Oh you were jealous of what a family the 118 has become? Well, maybe you should have done your part to make it better back then. Being afraid to come out is not an excuse for being a dick. It seems like all of the 9-1-1 fandom is foaming at the mouth for Buddie, but it’s nice to see some people here who, like me, wouldn’t care if they never got together. I think they have a strong friendship. Also according to the producers, the original Harry actor left because he wanted to try new things. Which is fair. He’s a creative, and playing the same role for a long time probably gets old. So there was no drama, unlike with Michael. Ugh.

Susie D

FINALLY !!! BISEXUAL BUCK IS HERE !!! What a fucking historical TV moment that was (especially considering how it was a widespread headcanon that he was bi, and now it is CANON <3) and I think that loft scene is utter perfection. The lighting, the music, Oliver & Lou's performances, the way they start off with distance between them, but as they keep talking, they just get pulled in more and more towards each other-- just beautiful. Like yeah I was a Buddie gal, but I genuinely came to absolutely adore Bucktommy/Tevan due to this episode and you will never catch me badmouthing it, due to the importance of this episode. This episode made so many queer men feel seen and that is what matters most of all. This is bigger than fictional ships, so here's hoping this space will remain positive and not full of character bashing. And, oh god, as a bisexual myself... Buck's "I am free" upon realizing this deeply personal thing about himself, with his eyes all teary - yeah that has me sobbing on every rewatch. BTW rewatch the episode with the knowledge that it is Tommy that Buck is yearning for, because it actually still makes sense. The showrunner purposefully crafted the episode like this (it is called a bait-and-switch) and yeah, the hints ARE there. It was always about Tommy.

Simone

OMG, I had the exact same reaction the first time I watched this. I felt like the whole episode they were setting up for us to finally get Buddie and then I was flabbergasted at the ending.

tjamaicapogue

bi buck is here!!!

heather

heavy on the "it should have been eddie" lmaoooo

shianne

I love this episode so damn much! Buck being Bi makes so so so much sense. I’m personally on the ship where I don’t really mind whether buddie happens or not, I’d simply be happy for whatever makes Buck happy.

Daniel

Watching this episode was incredible. Watching your reaction was priceless 😂

Cathy Mills

You're reaction was priceless! 🤣 I loved how you got so annoyed everytime Tommy said 'Evan' (same). You're so right, it should be Buck and Eddie, I hope thats where they are going. 🤞

Christian Esposito

It's always gonna be Buck and Eddie for me, but at this point i was so happy for our Buck 🥺 loved your reaction and can't wait for more 😍

_sinem54

Also when it comes to Harry, I don't know the story with the original actor, but Harry needed to be recasted.

Clay W

I haven't laughed that hard in so long, your reaction to the end has me in tears 😂.

Gabrielle Hawkins

I agree, I really don't see Buck and Eddie being a couple. I'm bi and I'm always looking for my next favorite queer couple, but they're not it. They're practically brothers in my eyes.

Clay W

While I really don't see this chemistry that everyone else sees between Buck and Eddie other than friendship, Buck being bi made so much sense to me, and me being bi myself, it warmed my heart. I love this journey for him.

Clay W

"I am free" Buck's Bisexual awakening has finally happened!!

darion greenlee

I personally don't want Buck and Eddie tbh. Buck being bi makes total sense to me, but I never felt any romantic chemistry between him and Eddie.... I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I like them as best friends and I hope it stays that way.

Greta

I have been WAITING for you to get to this one!!! I reacted the same way you did when this episode aired I was literally speechless I did not think they would ever actually go this route for Buck but I’m SO excited they did! Can’t wait to see you react to the rest of the season!

Lis

Tumblr and Reddit went craaaazy that night

Natasha G

Oliver was really thrilled this finally happened :) he posted about it on instagram when it aired. It threw everyone by surprise!

Natasha G

Yes now you made it to this episode!!!

Natasha G

I forgot to add in my other comment lol. I felt that “where’s May?” Seriously I miss her! Also, I had the same reaction every time Buck was called Evan 😭

Sunchi

This was also the 100th ep. So I love that they did that for Buck in this ep. I love to see it.

Mariah Libby

The way I clicked this so fast!!!!! You've made it to the bisexual awakening CONGRATS! I remember going to work with the BIGGEST smile on my face after watching this episode. It was historical I'm telling you. But also Buck and Eddie for me too 👀

EmmaDoodlebug

Ooo how I've waited for this 🤣

Darrin Haley

Bwahahaha. It was funny to see you speechless. I knew you'd be team Buddie instead of team Tevan 😂

CJ

They did change at the actor who use to play Harry

Kristina Fagan

I absolutely love this for Buck. He is finally finding himself. I don’t like Tommy but I am grateful he showed Buck the light.

blamphan

Yay so glad no one spoiled this for you. Loved your genuine reaction

Erin

I was counting the episodes for you to get to this one! We want Buddddddddie , but Tommy is still fine 🤗 I don’t like the new actor too. & can we talk about Buck in the pink shorts OMG 🔥

Marie-Soleil Dobie

He was the actual bachelor that season, love how Chimney was star struck.😂😂😂

Kristina Fagan

I had to click immediately!! As always, love your reactions. I am personally not a Tommy fan (no hate if anyone else is) this is just my opinion. But I am so happy for Buck as he discovers this part of himself :).

Sunchi

Yes they actually went to the set of the Bachelor

Kristina Fagan

We shall

Kristina Fagan

Watching this episode live was crazy…. Literally collapsed to the floor with the last scene
