Eddie goes swimming in a sinkhole, Nacho Libre and Theo land Buck in the ER, and 9-1-1 is back with its Season 10 premiere, “That Sinking Feeling.” Han, Cil, and Rachel are here to talk about everything that worked to make this a much-deserved celebration of a rarely reached milestone in television. Maddie and Athena are putting puzzle pieces together while Chimney, Hen, Ravi, Harry, and the rest of the 118 end the episode diving under the engine for cover from the erupting volcano. Gotta love a Thursday!

New here or coming from our rewatch episodes? Current-season coverage has its own format: a weekly or bi-weekly reaction where we review the episode, dismantle a fandom take or two we disagree with, highlight our three favorite moments for each character, and go all in on Buck and Eddie. The full deep dive comes later when we reach that season in a rewatch!

So, get ready to take a peek at Eddie’s psyche as we talk about why he’s so good at exercising restraint, and why he shouldn’t really be proud of that. Then follow us as we break down Buck and Eddie getting mistaken for a couple… again, and why the only non-work related scenes in the season premiere focusing on the Buckley-Diaz family dynamics are a pretty big deal! And pretty gay, let’s be real. Plus a plethora of parallels, what’s coming next, and our never-ending wish list, and trust us — you won’t want to miss everything we cooked up!
