In March, I wrote a really weird little essay about the sinking feeling I had about the Buddie ship on 9-1-1. I pulled myself together and told myself it would never see the light of day, but then the season 8 finale happened. It was disappointing and hammered home that, like many storylines in season 8, the Buddie stuff in the season had been a total dead end. In light of that, I decided to add a little context to my queerbait depression manifesto and quickly record and edit it. Enjoy!

I do have the Step Up video all filmed and am currently editing. Hoping I can get it out within the month!

...Are we being queerbaited?

Back in March, I wrote a weird, stream-of-consciousness, creative non fiction essay (I guess) because I was starting to worry that ABC's 9-1-1 was jerking me around in regard to popular ship Buddie. I quickly stashed it away, thinking that I was overreacting, and put my clown shoes back on to buddiemaxx for the rest of the season. But now, having seen the remainder of the season and that Buddie did in fact go nowhere in season 8, my little mental breakdown manifesto feels relevant again. I added some context to the beginning and end to explain what this is and why I'm releasing it now, enjoy! Or don't! Why did I frame it through the lens of Mel Brooks's Blazing Saddles? Good question! Welcome to my twisted mind, etc. etc. And to everyone who got mad at me when I called out Eddie's writing in my first 9-1-1 video, let me clarify ONCE AGAIN that when I criticize Eddie's writing, I am criticizing his WRITING. Not Eddie the special little real life boy himself. I too love Eddie, but I want better for him than this show tends to provide. 00:00 - Intro/Explanation 1:25 - Is Buddie Going to Be Canon, Or Are We Just Jerking Off? 6:57 - Outro Check out my 9-1-1 recap podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/7hTRbpRh5zSiBI10YTBZIr (@FirstRespodcast on YouTube) And my Patreon: https://patreon.com/JaneMulcahy?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink And all my socials teehee: Twitter: https://twitter.com/jane_mulcahy Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jxnecm/ Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/janemulch/
