Did you know the Buck Moon was named after 9-1-1’s very own? ...Okay maybe it only is in our hearts, but the rest is true! This week Han, Cil, and Rachel reflect on the chaos a full moon can bring (or enable?) in Season 1, Episode 7 of 9-1-1, “Full Moon (Creepy AF).” We orbit around the parallels between Hen & Eva and Buck & Abby, and the magic of birth in its many forms.

Ah, the perfect Valentine's Day setup: candles lit, gentle tunes, and the tantalizing aroma of freshly baked bread…what could possibly go a-rye?! It’s not all cinnamon rolls and puff pastries in Season 1, Episode 6  of 9-1-1, “Heartbreaker.”

Han, Cil, and Rachel chew over characters’ disillusionments of love, stale relationships, and Buck and Abby’s infamously terrible first date.

Are they a batch made in heaven, or is their relationship toast before it gets a chance to fully rise?
