Could we see the 911: Lone Star characters in a spin-off? (Don't count on it)

As a dedicated fan of the gritty and gripping world of 911: Lone Star, I’ve been through more ups and downs than a firefighter descending from a burning building! The recent news about the show has left me feeling like I’m stuck in rush hour traffic with no exit in sight. With Season 5 getting postponed until fall 2024, it’s been one long wait for my favorite Houston heroes.

Supporters of “911: Lone Star” are optimistic that the characters might appear in other “911” series, but unfortunately, there’s some disappointing news regarding that possibility!

911: Lone Star fans have been facing some challenges lately. The fourth season concluded in May 2023, but due to the 2023 Hollywood strikes, plans for Season 5 were delayed. After the strikes ended, instead of a shortened season, Fox opted to postpone the show until fall 2024.

Subsequently, trouble arose when Sierra McClain declared she was departing the series, taking her character Grace off-script, and altering the narrative for Jim Parrack’s Judd. Later, Fox validated rumors that Season 5 would mark the end of the show.

The series 911 will carry on airing on ABC, and there are plans underway for a spinoff. This has fans wondering if any characters might appear in the new series. However, when asked by TVLine, one of the co-showrunners, Rashad Raisani, hinted that such decisions might be out of his hands.

I adore these actors and their characters, so who knows what the future holds? In truth, I can’t help but feel that we didn’t get enough time together. Although I understand this is the final chapter for the show as it stands now, I can’t help but keep my fingers crossed that something changes. While I don’t have complete power over creating a spinoff, if I can pull it off, I certainly will.

It’d be such a pity not to witness these characters returning, considering the vast possibilities they hold for standalone stories or sequels.

Who could jump from 911: Lone Star to another show?

In the series Lone Star, there are several characters who could easily transition to other shows. The latest episode saw Owen (Rob Lowe) presented with an opportunity to become a fire chief in New York, which he declined initially. However, due to his standing in Houston, there’s a possibility that Owen might be offered another chance, making him more receptive this time around.

As a gaming enthusiast, I find myself pondering over the possible moves of certain characters in our virtual world. TK seems to be rooted here in Houston, given her husband Carlos is with the Texas Rangers. Judd’s intentions remain unclear; he might yearn for a new beginning but still holds a soft spot for this city. Fingers crossed, Grace will make her comeback.

Marjan could potentially be a good fit since she might be seeking a fresh beginning in a different city and aspiring for the captain’s position herself. Moreover, her vibrant personality would undeniably enhance another series, supported by her extensive background. On the other hand, Paul seems less probable as he recently acquired the lieutenant’s role, making it unlikely that he would be transferring. However, Mateo could plausibly transition to connect with the other 911 series.

From my perspective as a devoted fan, it seems more rational to envision a fresh cast and storyline in a new city for our beloved show, 911: Lone Star. However, countless fans would concur with Raisani’s sentiment that the series concluded prematurely, leaving many unresolved threads for its characters. Thus, while we bid farewell to the current series, there remains a glimmer of hope among us die-hard fans that perhaps some of our cherished characters may continue their journeys even beyond the show’s end.

911: Lone Star Season 5 returns on Monday, Jan. 20 at 8/7c on Fox.
