“Some Fun Interesting Stuff Coming Up”: '9-1-1' Star Jennifer Love Hewitt Teases Upcoming Buck-Maddie Arc in Season 8

9-1-1 has once again delivered on another exhilarating two-parter, one with a shocking twist that kept viewers on the edge right until the end credits rolled. The Season 8 mid-season premiere wrapped up with last night's episode "Voices," which for a tense moment had fans believing the show had killed off Maddie (Jennifer Love Hewitt). If her past abduction wasn't proof enough of her resilience, the latest ordeal dashed every doubt. Maddie's a fighter who not only survives her captor's den but does so against the slimmest of odds, fighting her way to freedom with a slit throat. Just like before, the latest trauma is bound to leave a lingering aftereffect, but thankfully, she has her brother Buck (Oliver Stark) and the rest of her family to lean on. And according to Hewitt, fans can expect a lighter, sibling-focused episode ahead.
