In the world of procedural television, 9-1-1: Lone Star is getting its final sendoff. The Fox series is in the midst of airing season five, which the network revealed in September would also be its final season. Well, the show is definitely warming up ahead of the last time people will see 126 on the air, and we’re all for it.
The crew at the Austin, Texas fire station are certainly in the midst of a difficult time, both professionally and personally. Amid constant emergencies, people are watching fan-favorite couple T.K. Strand (Ronen Rubinstein) and Carlos Reyes (Rafael Silva) navigate marital turmoil. Elsewhere, Owen Strand (Rob Lowe) is single for the first time in a long time, and he may find love in the most unexpected place. But don’t forget about the rest of the 126 crew, as Tommy Vega (Gina Torres), Judd Ryder (Jim Parrack), Paul Strickland (Brian Michael Smith) and others are all dealing with their own dramatic stories.
We know this is a big development, and there’s more to come as the final episodes of 9-1-1: Lone Star begin airing. But sometimes the world of television throws up unexpected twists, and fans may be disappointed to hear this news about the next episode.
Is a new episode of 9-1-1: Lone Star on TV tonight?
People may want to sound the alarm on this news, because 9-1-1: Lone Star will not air a new episode tonight, Monday, October 28. The show’s next episode is scheduled to air Monday, November 4 at 9 p.m. ET on Fox.
As for why 9-1-1: Lone Star won’t air a new episode, it has to do with America’s favorite pastime. Fox is currently airing the Major League Baseball (MLB) World Series, with the Los Angeles Dodgers taking on the New York Yankees to see who will be crowned baseball champions. What’s more, the network will air Game 3 tonight in 9-1-1: Lone Star’s regular time slot, forcing the procedural drama to postpone its new episode.
“The #WorldSeries is back in the Bronx for the first time in 15 years!” is the official caption for the Instagram post uploaded by MLB. “@clarkeschmidt and @buehlersdayoff21 will take the mound at Yankee Stadium for Game 3 at 8:08 p.m. ET on @MLBonFOX.”
As for what’s to come on 9-1-1: Lone Star, the show has dropped the first teaser for its upcoming episode. Titled “Naked Truth,” the episode will seemingly focus on Tommy as he learns some potentially life-changing health news. Elsewhere, Owen appears to be battling some unexplained demons, something that Marlene Harris (Robyn Lively) can help with.
Let’s just say we’ll have to suit up to see what happens next!
