Mads and Laura breakdown why on the surface some of the episodes moments look good, but upon further reflection aren't. As we round out this season we look back on all that the season contained and how put together feels disjointed and not as cohesive as previous seasons.

Mads and Laura discuss what was probably one of the best episodes 9-1-1 has ever aired.

Mads and Laura break down what worked and didn't work for each of the characters in their final storylines. Thank you for the memories 9-1-1: Lone Star.
As we head into the final three episodes of 9-1-1: Lone Star, we find ourselves even more angry at certain character choices already implemented and the events to come.
It only took 8 episodes, but Lone Star finally had a great episode this season. But, Laura and I don't want to talk about the giant elephant in the room that comes at the cost of not having Grace around. Meanwhile, on 9-1-1, the silly, goofy filler episode lands pretty solidly in the middle as wholly entertaining and developing for the characters themselves. Check out our full thoughts.
Mads and Laura discuss how Lone Star actually had an enjoyable episode despite not liking where Tommy's health journey is going. Then, on 9-1-1, this episode reminds us we can never take ourselves too seriously because this show certainly doesn't.
On our 80th episode, we discuss the implications of 9-1-1: Lone Star seeming to get rid of yet another main character of color and how Owen continues to be an unsympathetic character. Then, on 9-1-1, the math is definitely mathing for Eddie to have a queer awakening soon -- if the writers are brave enough -- while Buck experiences his first queer break-up.
Mads and Laura discuss the merits of TK and Carlos' marital woes and question the role Owen takes in the horse emergency. Then, we go full out for the Halloween silliness that 9-1-1 is so good at doing.
Once again, Mads and Laura are less than impressed with 9-1-1: Lone Star but recognize that Tommy is probably better off single. Meanwhile, 9-1-1 is an almost perfect episode with proof that great dialogue and direction choices can make all the difference.
Mads and Laura continue to have issue with the writing of Lone Star this season. Meanwhile, 9-1-1 proves that the perfect formula is just letting Athena and Bobby do the most ridiculous things.
Surprising no one, Laura manages to engage in a thoughtful discussion about Lone Star without having watched Lone Star. Once again, Angela Bassett proves she's the glue holding 9-1-1 together. Check out our other thoughts on the latest episodes.

As previously mentioned, Laura and Mads love when 9-1-1 focuses on one specific character to drive the narrative of an episode. "There Goes the Groom" is a perfect example of this. Listen as we get emotional talking about Chim's journey to his wedding ceremony.

Mads and Laura discuss what works and what doesn't about the 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Lone Star finales.
Laura and Mads feel as though both 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Lone Star need to work on a few things to truly be great, but that these episodes weren't the worst ones. It'd be nice if we knew going into the finale what the purpose of Eddie and Buck's separate dating stories all season have been for -- especially since none have panned out in the long run. Chim and Maddie have the proposal they deserve. And once again, a Strand storyline has us scratching our heads. Listen for more.
Once again, Lone Star coming in with a shockingly good episode. We love a strong Grace moment and for this episode she WAS the moment. 9-1-1 seems to have forgotten the fundamentals of who Hen and Chim are to each other, but we won't hold it against them -- too much.
While neither episode was terrible, there were definitely issues with each on that Laura and Mads can't ignore. Overall, both episodes were a fun time which is a rarity with the franchise.
For the first time in a while, Lone Star didn't make Owen an insufferable addition to the story, in fact, his story was fun and engaging. Laura and Mads break down the rest of the episode and discuss how frustrating it was that both episodes contained unsolicited singing.
Laura once again didn't have time or energy to watch Lone Star, but all is not lost because Mads did all the grunt work. Meanwhile, on 9-1-1 Buddie is making it very hard to focus on anything else.
Mads and Laura break down Lone Star from the last two weeks. Overall they enjoyed the episodes but still had some issues with each one. Did you prefer the Owen is a gigolo episode or the Marvin/Mateo episode?

We started our discussion with 9-1-1 Lone Star because 9-1-1 was so good we wanted to focus most of our time on that episode. Laura and Mads have some strong opinions about where the story of Buck is going. If only we could say the same about whatever this episode of Lone Star was.
Kat joins Mads and Laura to discuss her interview with Oliver Stark and that intense Season 6 mid-season opener. Mads and Laura then discuss the beauty of Lone Star when Owen isn't the focus at all.
Mads and Laura discuss the highest-rated -- by them -- episode this season. Was the twist a decent plot device? Why does Owen insist on doing these speeches? And how do we feel about Minear's comments regarding the last couple of episodes?
Episode 5 is marginally better than the rest of this season so far -- at least according to Mads. Laura doesn't completely agree, but overall there is much more positive to say about this episode because of Grace, Nancy, and Marjan.
Laura and Mads discuss the latest episode and how some minor changes could have made the episode, dialogue, and overall feel better. Is TK any good at investigating Carlos' disappearance? Should Owen be working undercover for the FBI? All this and more are discussed and answered.
Laura and Mads rate this episode the lowest rating they have ever given an episode of any show. There was so much wasted potential with every storyline brought up this week. This episode also raises some big questions about whether or not TK and Carlos are really that great of a couple overall.

Laura and Mads felt pretty middle ground about this episode. We enjoy the chaos of crazy caused by the Santa Ana winds, but can we please stop making Bobby's addiction his only personality trait?
Laura and Mads discuss what works for this filler episode and what should've been expanded more to make it better. Overall, we both liked this episode and found it to have elements of fun.

Laura has finally watched an episode! Mads and Laura talk about why this episode is probably one of the better ones of the whole series. The beginning of our favorite couple definitely plays into it.
