Although very early for anyone to be providing a convincing opinion on how good 9-1-1: Lone Star is (or could be), the pilot episode provided some poignant scenes. Although this TV drama series may be fictional, it still could be considered reminiscent of the internal struggles of the many fire and rescue personnel who lost their lives on September 11th, 2001, and the real tragedies of the survivors who were there in New York city when the twin towers were attacked by terrorists and subsequently collapsed.
Rob Lowe who is the central figure in this TV series plays the newly appointed fire captain Owen Strand, who was personally selected by the city of Houston Texas for his successful leadership in re-building the New York city Fire Department, to re-build a fire station in Houston Texas's Fire Department after a tragic explosion had devastating consequences on the Houston Fire Department with many lives lost.
I am sure there will be a percentage of this TV shows audience that will voice their displeasure with the series need for inclusiveness but that is the reality that our world and the people who inhabit it need to address in a positive manner, and based solely on this the pilot episode I believe Rob Lowe is up for the task.
score 8/10
