How Does Buck Feel About Eddie on ‘9-1-1’? Oliver Stark & Tim Minear Weigh In

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for 9-1-1 Season 8 Episode 11 “Holy Mother of God.”]

Is 9-1-1 actually about to go there with Buck (Oliver Stark) and Eddie (Ryan Guzman)?! For the first time onscreen, the show does address the possibility.

Buck may have moved into Eddie’s house when his best friend left for Texas to be closer to his son, but he’s been sleeping at his sister Maddie (Jennifer Love Hewitt) and her husband Chimney’s (Kenneth Choi). He also tries to make new friends, with Ravi (Anirudh Pisharody) back at the 118, his first attempt. But as Ravi points out, he had plenty of time before now. Buck argues it took him a minute to warm up to Eddie when he first got there, you know, “almost a whole shift.” Ravi’s been there four years. And when they go out for a drink and Buck just keeps talking about Eddie, Ravi gladly brings Buck’s ex-boyfriend Tommy (Lou Ferrigno Jr.) over and makes his escape.
