you know at this point i don't even care if buddie happens. it'd be great but it really doesn't seem like it's going to happen. what would be fucking FANTASTIC is giving eddie a gay storyline. do you know how fucking COOL it'd be to have 911 dealing with a coming out later in life storyline?? like we already have established gay characters and that's great, but it would be fucking amazing to see that realization and confrontation of sexuality by someone who's already in their thirties.

and if eddie confronting his parents about his childhood has anything to do with homophobia and eddie having his own internalized homophobia, even fucking better. it's such a complex issue to tackle and if done right could make for an amazing fucking storyline.

the representation for people who struggled with their sexuality and didn't find out until after they were in established relationships with the opposite sex had already been shown on 911, but imagine if they took this main MAIN character with lots of screen time (sort of) and used it to explore that part of personal discovery for them. and possibly with the confrontation of religious trauma/guilt, however you want to put it, a complex and FANTASTIC storyline could be born.

and all this depends on if 911 cares, but if we get a gay eddie storyline i think i could deal with not having buddie.

because this 911 episode is getting more traction then normal, its been funny to see the different reactions/opinions of people on different social media platforms

tiktok - fully on the bucktommy train

twitter - annoyed at the bucktommy fans on tiktok

instagram - a mix of sweet support to oliver and homophobia and biphobia

tumblr - just celebrating that buck is bi

Okay. I'm about to say something that's probably going to get me run out of the fandom, but.

I don't actually think Tommy leaving their date early had anything to do with him not wanting to pressure Buck (regardless of what he claimed later). Instead, I think it had everything to do with Tommy being annoyed and no longer into it that evening, and I think that is both okay AND significantly more interesting than taking him at his word later and framing it as some selfless act by a sanitized elder gay shepherd just trying to do right by Buck.

#listen #i LIKE tommy #a lot actually #more than i thought i would #but i also feel like the fandom has created an overly sanitized projection of him as a perfect character who can do no wrong #in a way that makes him so much less interesting than he has the potential to be #this is NOT meant as a criticism of the character #more just an alternative reading i find more interesting #tommy kinard #911 discourse #just in case #unpopular opinion

I find it very interesting that Tim Minear told an interviewer that they are “basically laying down the train tracks on 911 while the train is still moving”. And then he further added that they’re still “in the middle of writing episodes 8-10” which are literally set to air next month. So what this tells me is that they are definitely waiting to gauge general audience reactions for the storylines they have leading up to the small hiatus. Because the hiatus gives them plenty of time to rewrite anything that might not be accepted positively or double down and perfect their initial ideas.

Now what I find a little suspicious is that Tim is a calculated person. We know that he called Oliver ahead of his current storyline and talked to him about what his plans were for Buck, which was his sexuality storyline. Now isn’t it strange how another person on the show, Ryan Guzman, seems so happy and keeps assuring in all his interviews that the writers take into consideration feedback from fans and are going to give us what we want? All the interviews he’s done with Oliver, just give off vibes that they both know something we don’t know. So why would Ryan be so confident in what the writers are writing when according to Tim, they still don’t have anything concrete written for the last three episodes of the season? Unless…unless Tim has also called up Ryan and expressed what his plans are for his character’s storyline for the season. Maybe it was even a joint call of some sort to let both Ryan and Oliver know that he perhaps has plans to get the ball rolling for bringing Buddie together romantically. And what way to do that is by dipping his toe in first with Buck’s storyline with Tommy to see how the general audience reacts to the possibility of Buck dating a man.

Meanwhile Tim has also shown how strong Buck and Eddie are as a family unit with Christopher in episode 7.01. So whatever happens in 7.05 before the hiatus, it’s likely to arise some questions for viewers. And while sifting through the comments and feedback, it’ll help Tim make up his mind on how to finish off this season. Which means it can very possibly end with a big confirmation that Buddie is happening come season 8.

I just think with Tim sharing so many Buddie stills to his personal Facebook page before the season even aired, choosing that specific Buckley Diaz family moment in 7.01, and confirming that they don’t have plans for Buddie “right now” doesn’t confirm it’s not happening. On the contrary, I think he’s literally waiting and watching how the public reacts before coming up with a concrete plan on when it is time to make it happen. Everything he’s done and said just seems so deliberate in my honest opinion.

And both Ryan and Oliver’s behavior also seem very deliberate and I can go on and on about that as well but I’ll just say they’re behaving very differently this season overall than any other season. I mean just look at how often Oliver shares Ryan on his stories. And how quickly Ryan shares 911 content and pictures taken by Oliver to his stories. This has never been the case between these two in all 6 years they’ve worked together. All that aside, choosing both of them to interview together, discuss their storylines and promote together was a definite choice made by whoever is in charge. So why those two specifically when it could’ve been any other 911 cast member? Peter and Angela had a three episode arc and we didn’t get a single joint interview together. We know JLH and Kenny have a big wedding storyline coming up and have yet to get a single joint interview with them. Aisha and Tracie have a storyline coming up about them adding to their family and we don’t have any interviews with them. But we also don’t have any interviews with just like Kenny and Aisha since they also play best friends on the show. Like all these decisions that were made ahead of this season are very suspicious to me especially when you consider literally everything else that’s been said by Tim and both Ryan and Oliver. So I guess take what you will with all this information but I’m just very suspicious about everything that’s going on.

#buddie #Tim Minear #oliver stark #ryan guzman #911 on abc #911 speculation #again this is all MY OPINION #I find it super interesting that Tim said all that and like how could it not be about buddie ? #I mean yessss it can be about anything else im sure of it #it’s not the Buddie show #but like this makes sense for it to be a bit about them

[stew-wars]

Controversial opinion but I don't actually want Buck and Eddie to get together this season. Buck only just now figured out he likes men, he needs more time to figure everything out and I think Tommy is the right person for that.

Eddie has probably never questioned his sexuality before so he needs to have that realization first and then once he accepts who he is, and ONLY THEN, would he and Buck get together and stay together. Any earlier and it would be a disaster.

I've been a Buddie stan since the beginning but as someone who's been a queer person even longer, I want them to take this slow and with the time and respect they deserve

Every now and then I'll be going about my day and then I remember the whole thing with buck and tommy is an actual storyline and not a mass hallucination or a really good fan edit and honestly it puts a smile on my face

#it feels surreal that they actually gave buck a queer storyline #like I honestly did not expect the bi buck spec to be right until 30 seconds before tommy kissed him #i never held with the opinion that 911 was queerbaiting but still #i did not believe they would actually go there #but boy im glad they did #911 spoilers #911 #911 abc #911 on abc #evan buckley #tommy kinard #bucktommy #crow rambles while high on sleep deprivation

i don't really have coherent meta thoughts here, but there's something really tasty about the potential conflict between evan 'the only way i can tell people love me is when they yell at me for my dumb choices' buckley and eddie 'i will keep my mouth shut if it kills me' diaz

#911 #eddie diaz #evan buckley #buddie #meta #does this even count as meta? #idk #but something about buck subconsciously WANTING eddie to openly question his decisions #both because he doesn't completely trust himself and because 'you're so stupid and you're gonna get hurt' was the main avenue of care #in his formative years #and eddie who gritted-teeth REFUSES to voice his negative opinions about the shit buck does

[warpedpuppeteer]

Listen, I've been around the blocks a couple of times already, and shows that don't want to make a popular queer ship canon often just absolutely RUINS whatever they have created between the two characters so if we don't get canon Buddie, I don't fucking care as long as they keep giving us Buddie scenes. Like, if the price of having Buddie or Buckley-Diaz family scenes is hearing them call each other brother or having completely useless prop girlfriends then whatever. We'll just create our own Buddie headcanons and interpolate their scenes together and survive instead of them not having any or minimum scenes together.

#yes i want them to be canon #but also yes i recognise that they might not be #but I'd rather they not be canon and still be together #than being separated because of the pressure of making them canon or whatever #we can be like the merthur fandom #gay till the end but never canon #instead of the bullshit they pulled with johnlock or sterek or destiel #personal opinion #buddie #911 abc #eddie diaz #evan buckley #evan buck buckley

I'm begging y'all to be sane. I get that it's exciting a show has got to 100 episodes and the show should celebrate that but also I need to be very clear (as someone who works in TV and has done for a fair amount of time), sometimes a big "milestone" episode are just a regular episode from a story perspective. Stop building it up to be something it probably won't be because the vitriol and ire that some of you have shown to the cast is frankly repugnant and you should be fucking ashamed of yourselves.

#911 abc #911 fox #obviously i want buddie #and obviously i like buck - he's literally my profile pic #but like the characters are getting their own stories #and just because your fave hasnt had one yet #it doesnt give you any fucking right to try and ruin things for other people #grow up and behave like people who understand that its their choice to consume media #dont like it? dont watch it #this was one of the most popular prime time dramas so its pretty clear that your one negative opinion is not the norm #trying to ruin it for other people and introduce negativity is just embarrassing spiteful petty and pathetic
