Featured review
getting back to what we love
This ep was a breath of fresh air and felt like we are finally heading back in the right direction after whatever last week was supposed to be. Possibly the best of season 5 so far.
Loved how Ravi is fitting in so seamlessly, Anirudh's performance here was perfect. And loved the end with Bobby, it did remind me of season 1 Buck and Bobby which was nice. Though I do miss Chimney and I hope to catch up with him and Maddie again next week.
Hen being a surgeon was bad ass, though the thought of her leaving the 118 is so scary... those are her boys and the dynamic works so well with her there. I get she's only in year 2 of med school but I am curious how this will play out.
AND FINALLY we got Buck and Eddie where they should be....teamed up and together again. However you interpret them there's no doubt they are so good on screen together as a duo and there's a reason the dynamic is so widely adored. Though they really need to tackle the elephant in the room. Feels like something big is simmering under the surface with Eddie and I really hope the writers give this arc the screen time it deserves. I also feel there's a reason we are seeing Buck almost at arms length from the Diaz boys whilst it's simultaneously cemented that they are incredibly important to him....very interested to see where this is going. If the Buck and Taylor scenes are deliberately awkward and this will be soon uncovered as to why... then fair play to the actors....if not then...lol??
Also yay for Athena and Buck interactions, I always enjoy those (and would love for 911 to explore it more, I really feel like she sees Buck in a way others don't, because she's both incredibly close to him/the 118 and an observer at the same time). Athena, Maddie and Carla, I feel are integral to Buck figuring things out ๐
The end scene with Eddie and Chris was perfect. Gavin McHugh you are a scene stealer always. Writers please use him wisely!
Overall good ep, high energy and intense. Followed through with some more character work post this "event" (I.e. More trauma) this could be really solid.
