Yes this poll is very biased in favor of North America lol

actually i'm still thinking about that part of oliver's zach sang interview where he says that he doesn't think of buck as a queer character, he thinks of him as a character that is queer, who has a fully fleshed out personality and a multitude of important characteristics and who has flaws and makes mistakes, just like any real, human person. he's not that bisexual character we shoved in there for representation's sake. he's evan buckley, and his bisexuality is important and undeniable but it's not the only thing that makes him buck. that makes him so loved.

i love it because that's always how 911 has approached queerness, right from the very beginning. when i think of hen, her being a black lesbian isn't the first thing that comes to mind. what comes to mind is her brilliance and her compassion towards the people that she treats. it's the understanding with which she approaches the world. it's how fiercely protective she is of her friends and her loved ones. it's her devotion towards her wife and her family. it's her complicated feelings towards her past and the way that she's learned to heal from the scars that were left. however, hen's identity as a black lesbian is always present. it's never ignored or minimized and the show never tries to diminish how those aspects of who she is would impact her life. her identity as a black woman and a queer woman is always relevant and has played a huge part in making her who she is, but it's never, ever been her sole defining characteristic. she is a fully fledged character, and her queerness has always been allowed to exist and take up space without taking away from anything else that makes her hen.

that is always how representation should be done and i'm so grateful that it's been the norm on 911 right from day one. i'm so grateful for this show, and the love and care with which they've treated our queer characters — hen, karen, michael, david, josh, that beautiful older gay couple that quite literally defined love on this show, that sweet woman who just wanted to pass her driving test, the guy who ended up with a tapeworm in his ass because he couldn't stop eating sushi, tommy, and now, evan buckley. a character that has been so loved right from the very beginning and now gets to discover this new part of himself that brings him so much joy and so much relief. despite the hurdles they've had to face, the people making this show have given so much to their queer audience and i'm just....so grateful that we get to witness the love they have for us. they really said. we see you. there is a space for you here. come and embrace it.

Tommy bringing big "Pretty sure you're in love with Eddie, but who am I to turn down a pretty boy" energy to this

can someone like. kiss my neck or pay attention to me or something

Abc: welcome to the abc family how do you feel about Buck being queer?

Oliver:

"Eddie was never gay". Eddie worked in the dispatch building and immediately got into a petty passive aggressive territory bitch fight with Josh, the other gay man in the team. Gay recognises gay <3

buck being cute talking about tommy

me: buck was attracted to eddie in 2x01 and he didn’t know what to do with that feeling

oliver: buck was attracted to eddie in 2x01 and he didn’t know what to do with that feeling

me:

They were so busy shoving Ryan and Lou back into containment that they left Oliver unattended for too long and now he’s confirming Buddie in literally every interview he can get his hands on

Q: When you first met that character, and you seemed a little standoffish and maybe threatened, and not a big fan. Do you think it's because deep down you had these... something there brewing, but you didn't know what it was?

#Ryan & Oliver Whenever They Say Something They Shouldn't About Buddie

When Eddie sees Buck kiss Tommy after Tommy’s entrance at the wedding, I think he’ll look happy and he will smile like everyone else does, but Ryan will make sure that for a microsecond, Eddie’s face carries an expression that is indescribable and that no human face has every carried before, and in that one expression we’ll know the multitude of emotions that Eddie is feeling.
