Rewatch of 9-1-1: 4x07

I’m showing my mom the show 😂 and we’re watching Michael and Bobby and David participate in criminal activity.

I’m laughing at it 😂

And she’s screaming at the TV: “What the F?!” “SHUT. UP.” “OH MY GOD!” “Athena’s going to kill them!”

And now I’m laughing at my mom too 😂

S4 ep7 911

I LOVE DAVID/MICHAEL/BOBBY TRIO!!! look we haven't really seen David this much but so far out of all the characters they're definitely my favourite trio, beating Christopher/Eddie/Buck

Can't really explain why but then digging through trash is just such a great experience that's low-key making me jealous cause it's so just PURE??

Fyi I'm responding to @icecreampotluck 's reply on one of my posts and I didn't want to hide my response in the comments.

I sort of get that, and you can be mad at that all you want, but that's not the reason. Also that's not what I asked. See the main word I used in my post was "SUDDENLY"

"Why are people "SUDDENLY" getting upset"

If this was a problem people actually cared about, we would've seen it way sooner. Just look at how people have reacted to how the show's dealt with certain LGBT+ themes;

Some of the ways Athena was treating/acting towards Michael in season one, having Hen cheat on her wife with her ex, Josh becoming a freaking statistic when he tried a dating app and got assaulted

People were rightfully upset and vocal about it. And if that's not enough for you, what about the whole "forcing people to forgive their toxic parents" thing going on throughout the entire show?

Athena and her mother, Hen and her mother, Buck and his parents, Eddie and his parents, Chimney and his dad

When this stuff happened people were and still are very vocal and upset about redeeming shitty parents because the story said so. Hell, when the show first told us how shitty Buck and Maddie's parents were to Buck, people immediately went; "Fuck Margaret and Philip! Bobby and Athena are Buck's parents now!" And no one had a problem with that

If people really had a problem with Athena being considered Buck's mother because of racial portrayals they would've said so as far back as season 2 when Maddie got kidnapped and Athena had to keep an eye on Buck to make sure he didn't do anything stupid, arguably one of the first times she could be seen in a motherly light for him, and those people could have continued to be upset about it throughout the show whenever they had moments like that. But they didn't.

My question was, why is it now that the show's about to come back in, at the time of the original post it was a little under 2 weeks, were people deciding to get upset?

All that time, all those scenes, all those seasons, and not one person brought it up with it possibly being a problem. It's only now that the show's about to come back that it's suddenly an issue?

I call bullshit

Bonus:

Athena is never shown to be "eager and excited" to take care of Buck like a "mammy". She's always been shown as at least mildly annoyed but caring towards him

The closest I could possibly think of her acting like that is when she and Bobby have Buck over for dinner while he's off duty and trying to find a way back to work right before the lawsuit. Bobby comes clean about him being the reason Buck's not working and Athena is happily offering more food. But that's not being eager and excited, that's her knowing a storm is brewing and trying to deescalate the situation

That was at the beginning of season 3. We're about to start season 7.

So I'll ask again:

"Why are people SUDDENLY getting upset about Athena being considered Buck's mother?"

And I'll say this again:

"People just find reasons to be upset these days"

Buck: Ok but small creatures are way more likely to be vicious.  It’s because their anger has less space to be bottled up in.

Eddie: Impossible. Give me an example of this.

Chim: Spiders.

Hen: Wasps.

Bobby: Terriers.

Michael: Athena.

has michael and david ever kissed in 911? like mans just proposed and they hug instead of kiss🤔

[heyfruitcake]

Michael: *sneaking in through their window*

David, turning in his chair: and flicking the light on* You want to tell me where you've been all night?

Michael: I was with Bobby?

Bobby, turning in his chair: Wanna try again?

[heyfruitcake]

David: This is such a bad idea.

Michael: Then why are you coming along?

David: One of us need to be able to talk the cops out of arresting us when this inevitably goes wrong.

[heyfruitcake]

May: Give me one good reason why I can't date him!

Michael: Okay how about the fact that he's older than you.

May: By one year!

Michael: Which is a lot!

David: You're five years older than me.

Michael: You are not helping.
