In Another Life

I really enjoyed this episode. Oliver did a fantastic job. Buck is an important character to not only the characters in the show but also the viewers. I really would love to see more of Buck and his story and who he is as a person. I would love to see more episodes that are very similar to this one. While some may not like it, a lot of people actually do. You can have criticism s but acting like the overall episode wasn't good would be a complete lie. It showed how important buck is and how he is the very heart and soul of the 118 and I think that's important. He needs to know that he's valued.

Loved the episode as a whole, love the easter eggs we saw. Perhaps a bit disappointed that once again the shooting shared trauma wasn't mentioned in the coma dream, I feel like it's something that should have been worth mentioning, its about time that a conversation should happen about it?

I really loved Christopher scene and loved the little parallel we got here, it got me really emotional.

However the parents redemption arc (for Buck and Chim) is getting on my nerve because of the "you have to forgive your parents to be able to move on" thing that is slightly pushed on the audience. That's just my opinion.

Also : Oliver did an AMAZING work, loved it 👏🏼

There are a lot of cliches about actors's performances. The one that comes most to mind is "tour de force" - something PR people love to use. That being said, Oliver Stark's performance in "In Another Life" was just that - an epic achievement in acting that further cemented not just Buck's central role in 9-1-1 but Oliver Stark's ability to bring laughter through tears (and vice versa) and to create a genuine, powerful emotional responses. Buck is an iconic television character - well conceived and consistently well written for - and Oliver Stark breathes such life into his character, whether going for the aforementioned laughter or tears, that he is absolutely 100% compelling. "In Another Life" gave Oliver Stark (and Buck, for that matter) an opportunity to show how vital he is to the success of 9-1-1 and the family that is the 118. I can give no higher recommendation to this amazing hour of television and to the actor who continues to bring sheer joy to fans of 9-1-1.

I think too many people are focusing on their expectations and what they wanted to happen instead of watching the show to enjoy what is actually going on.

The episode was great, yes I would have loved to see some other things but it doesn't mean the episode wasn't good.

You can tell the work that was put behind every scene and I think the actors gave it more than their 100% and that was soooo nice to see.

Everyone pour their hearts out on this show, some people should be a little bit respectful instead of acting like entitled brats who don't get what they want.

I absolutely would have loved to see some of the fans theories, and some other relationships on the screen, but this episode was about Buck finding his place in the world.

Yes I would go nuts if Buddie happened but some people need to watch the show to enjoy the show instead of going feral and be this disrespectful. Grow up, be an adult and if you're not happy stop watching.

Loved the episode. Some great character development for Buck, and incredible performance by Oliver Stark. I hope from now on, Buck understands how loved he is by everyone. He is more than a firefighter. He has such a positive impact on everyone around him. To me, he is the heart of the show. He is a good friend, a good brother and overall a good person. He has always been my favorite character and i love to see him in the spotlight, specially when it doesn't involve annoying & poorly written love interests. The sperm donor storyline has also been all over the place. And personally, i don't vibe with the whole "forgive your terrible parents" message. I fully believe it's posible to heal from childhood trauma without forgiving and excusing the parents who caused it. Specially in this case where they didn't really atone or apologize for their mistakes. The Buckley's and Chimney's dad can go to hell imho. It made very little sense for them to suddenly be so reasonable and understanding. Other than that the episode was great. 9.5/10.
