So long, 9-1-1
The two stars are me being generous, and to give credit to where it's due - Kenneth Choi.
Season 8 in general was very shaky and inconsistent with its writing and balancing out storylines, and this episode was no different. Unfortunately, a lot of the personal storylines got overlooked or overshadowed by the 2- and 3-parters, and most characters seemed to be in a same position they were two episodes ago.
The emergency itself was depicted alright, but drew too much attention away from the progression of personal storylines. You'd think that after killing off one of your main characters, you'd give the other characters around him have their open arcs at least somewhat resolved by the end of the season.
Killing off a beloved main character in a show that already had one of the most lovable casts was one of the worst decisions ever made in television history.
It was nice while it lasted, 9-1-1.
