Weewoo! This week, Emily and V talk about not Steve and Bucky, nor Steve and Eddie, nor Edward and Stede, but the FOURTH slash pairing with the same names: Buck and Eddie from 9-1-1. Specifically, the glorious handling of Buck's realization of his bisexuality and the awesome way his actor, Oliver Stark, is stewarding his role and the storyline. Of course, not everyone loved Buck's coming out -- either because of biphobia specifically, homophobia generally, or being a dick about shipping -- but Oliver Stark seems to love BiBuck enough to make up for that. Also: V comes up with some really great new nicknames for Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny.
