okay. itβs not even about like whether or not buddie happened. itβs actually the fact that they literally spent SO much time this season focusing on buck and eddieβs relationship to the detriment of BOTH of them having coherent and developed storylinesβcannot overstate that buck had NO STORYLINE this season except to be weird about eddie and eddie had TOO MUCH texas storyline that ultimately led nowhereβand then. didnβt follow through even ON THEIR RELATIONSHIP? EVEN THEIR PLATONIC RELATIONSHIP? i said this before but βbuck misses his best friendβ is not. A PLOT. okay.
and this isnβt even touching the fact that. um. basically none of the characters did anything this season that led to anything for them because they were all these choppy self-contained one-offsβbobby? hotshots, then his mom showed up, then he died of ratpox. hen? brief confrontation with ortiz, denny nde with no consequences, everyone forgot her birthday, she decided she didnβt want to be captain. maddie? worldβs shortest pregnancy and also kidnapped but sheβs over it now. chimney? maddieβs short pregnancy and kidnapping and then bobby died and he was set up to become captain (WITH NO FOCUS ON HIS LEADERSHIP PRIOR???π). athena? beenado plane crash, sparky the rookie, cart cop, then bobby died. buck and eddie are the only characters who actually had anything consistent happening across the season and it didnβt even end up being resolved. season 8 is watchable and in isolation most episodes are enjoyable for what they are but as a whole itβs disorganized and inconsistent and the storytelling is unsatisfying and that Sucks .
