'9-1-1' Season 8 Finale Recap: I'm Worried About the Future of This Show Beyond Its Big Disaster Episodes
In spite of a decent season finale, 9-1-' has its work cut out for it ahead of Season 9 after Bobby's death and Peter Krause's deptarture.
9-1-1's eighth season has officially concluded, and if the last handful of episodes of this season have taught me anything, it is to keep my expectations low. Still, there was a small but persistent part of me that had high hopes going into the Season 8 finale, that Bobby (Peter Krause) would be revealed as alive in a government lab somewhere, and that we would finally see some real movement forward for the romantic pairing of Buck (Oliver Stark) and Eddie (Ryan Guzman). Alas, the episode is better than the more logical part of me had expected, and it ties up a number of loose ends in generally satisfying, albeit rushed ways. Ultimately, though, while this was as strong of a season finale as 9-1-1 could have had without the aforementioned additions, I am really concerned about this show as we move into Season 9.
