Lab Rats

I am so deeply disappointed with this episode (the last one wasn't better).

As a fan, I feel disrespected by the writers of 911. How did they manage to write this big emergency without including one of their main characters ???? Eddie deserved to be part of this, especially if Bobby's death is real (which I believe it won't be).

How come the writers couldn't include Eddie's reaction to his death but they manage to include Tommy's? Tommy who was not part of the 118, Tommy who had racist and misogynistic attitudes towards Chimeny and Hen?

The writing was lazy (it had some good parts) but Eddie's absence was so loud that I couldn't feel the emotions the characters were supposed to portray.

One thing I need to give to 911: it sure loves to give screen time to racist characters (and actors).

I made an account on this godforsaken website just to rate this episode one star. The decisions made in this episode completely undermines and betrays the covenant the show has built with its viewers over the last eight years. If tim wanted to make a different show, he could've created a new show. This was our silly wee woo show - 9-1-1 provided levity, comfort, and found family to its viewers, and the reaction to this episode shows just how out-of-line this was - is there not enough suffering in this world? This episode was nasty in a way that just felt especially and needlessly cruel to the viewers who have invested their time into a stable and comforting show.

Tim minear doing this for shock value when NO ONE wanted this is not funny, it's not cute, and it's actually lost yourself a viewer. We liked the show because it was a safe comfort show not whatever he's turning it into now. Also the very obvious lack of care for other characters as well as the audience is every evident and not something i started this show for. Beyond over it. Maybe he will learn once the viewership tanks that he made a mistake but i doubt he would admit it anyways. You have two weeks to fix this tim so i would try before you lose everyone who loves and cares for the show and its characters.

Fans watch it for the idealistic values and the fact the "main characters always find a way". They find comfort in the personal storylines of the characters and not the emergency's. No one was becoming uninterested or bored of the same emergency's or repetitiveness of the show, we watch it to see the development of the characters and how they grow and learn from things. How their relationships grow and how they work together as a team. It was never about the emergency's or violence it was about the personalities and how they change throughout time. We want to see new relationships, more kids, even possibly add a new main character not ruin the foundation built to support the story's. Thank you for destroying the purpose of this series to many viewers.

The episode felt really out of place. It didn't have the 9-1-1 feel, apart from the unrealistic handeling of a big emergency, but we accepted that a long time ago. ;)

Eventhough 9-1-1 is always ambitious in having these huge scale emergencies, this felt off. This episode was obviously written with a goal, which was not the continuation of the storyline, but to be an episode with a shockfactor.

It really felt like a one off. I missed the interactions between the characters, the family feel. There was more time for flashy, high-budget, signs than there was for connection.

The emotions of the episode were reserved for one moment and wouldn't it have been great to feel the angst and worry through the characters' eyes in the rest of the episode... They had such a good opportunity with this storyline for character'- and relationshipbuilding. Too bad the writers weren't interested in writing an episode for their show, but more interested in... I don't even know what the point was.

We've survived snipers, lightning strikes, tsunamis, earthquakes, beenados, serial killers and throat slashes, pirates on cruiseships, to only name a few... But we've not survived the writers' whim. 💔
