Production

[edit]

Development

[edit]

On May 12, 2019, it was announced that Fox had given the production a series order for a 9-1-1 spin-off. 9-1-1 creator Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Tim Minear would serve as executive producers along with cast member Rob Lowe.[5] Angela Bassett, who starred in the original 9-1-1 serves as an executive producer. Writer John Owen Lowe, son of Rob Lowe, also works on the show's writing team.[24][25] It was the final ordered drama developed for Fox with 20th Television as a sister division, as the acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney had been completed almost two months before on March 20.[26]

On April 13, 2020, Fox renewed the series for a second season which premiered on January 18, 2021.[27][28] On May 17, 2021, Fox renewed the series for a third season which premiered January 3, 2022.[29][30] On May 16, 2022, Fox renewed the series for a fourth season which premiered on January 24, 2023.[31][32] On May 1, 2023, Fox renewed the series for a fifth season.[2] On November 15, 2023, it was announced that the fifth season of 9-1-1: Lone Star was pushed to fall 2024, amid the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike and the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike.[3] The fifth season then premiered on September 23, 2024 and will end on February 3, 2025.[4] On September 5, 2024, it was reported that the fifth season is going to be its final season.[33]

Casting

[edit]

On May 12, 2019, it was announced that Rob Lowe had been cast in the series as lead role.[5] On September 11, 2019, Liv Tyler was announced to star opposite of Lowe.[6] Jim Parrack joined the cast on September 18, 2019.[9] Two days later, Ronen Rubinstein and Sierra McClain were announced to have joined the cast.[7] On September 23, 2019, Natacha Karam, Brian Michael Smith, Rafael L. Silva, and Julian Works joined the cast.[10]

On September 3, 2020, Gina Torres was cast as a series regular for the second season.[34] On September 22, 2020, Liv Tyler departed the show prior to the second season. Tyler had been commuting between her London home and Los Angeles to film the show. Due to potential travel difficulties of the coronavirus pandemic and not wanting to be away from her young children for long, she asked producers to let her out of her multi-year contract. The possibility of her return was left open.[35] Lisa Edelstein was cast in a recurring role for the second season.[13] On October 8, 2020, Derek Webster joined the cast in a recurring capacity for the second season.[15] On May 25, 2021, Brianna Baker was promoted to series regular for the third season.[11] On September 28, 2022, Neal McDonough, D.B. Woodside, and Amanda Schull joined the cast in recurring capacities for the fourth season.[36]

On June 7, 2024, it was reported that original cast member, Sierra McClain, would not be returning as Grace Ryder ahead of the series' fifth season, due to a cast renegotiation dispute.[8]

Filming

[edit]

Despite being set in Austin, Texas, nearly all filming of the series occurs in Los Angeles, California.[37] The lack of on-location filming in Austin has prompted criticism from the local film industry, claiming that Austin has the production infrastructure to host the series.[38][39][40]

The fifth season started shooting in early March 2024,[41] and wrapped in late July 2024.[42]

Reception

[edit]

Critical response

[edit]

On Rotten Tomatoes, the series' first season has an approval rating of 77% based on 13 reviews, with an average rating of 6.8/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "If not as outlandishly fun as its predecessor, 9-1-1: Lone Star still packs an entertaining punch and is a great showcase for the handsomely self-aware Rob Lowe."[43] On Metacritic, the season has a weighted average score of 67 out of 100 based on 8 critics' reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[44]

Daniel D'Addario of Variety suggests that the series "started from the casting" but that it is not misconceived and is as solid as its predecessor, even if aspects of its conceit are "at times so utopian as to defy belief." He praises the "charismatic and inclusive ensemble" and hopes that the series will make use of them and not focus too much on its lead actor.[45] Daniel Fienberg of The Hollywood Reporter called the series fun and thrilling, stating its succeeds as a solid franchise companion, "full of explosions, infernos and death-defying stunts, but most of it is delivered in the attempted service of a more complicated series of character studies, an admirable goal not always smoothly executed."[46] Kelly Lawler of USA Today praised the ensemble cast, and said that producers Minear and Falchuck have "clearly tapped into what worked in "9-1-1," transplanted it easily to Texas and found a way to give "Lone Star" a tone and atmosphere all its own."[47] Brian Tallerico of RogerEbert.com wrote: "There's something almost impressively brazen about the way these shows use melodrama, embracing it like old-fashioned soap opera writers."[48] Joel Keller of Decider said " If you loved 9-1-1, you'll love this show." Keller praised the performances of the actors and the action sequences, complimented the dialogue and the development of the characters.[49]

Amanda Bell of TV Guide rated Lone Star 3.5 out of 5 and stated the series manages to find its own identity without duplicating 9-1-1, called the series inclusive through the diversity of the characters, and said the series celebrates Texas's culture.[50] Melissa Camacho of Common Sense Media rated the series 3 out of 5 stars, complimented the depiction of positive messages and role models, stating the series highlights friendship, teamwork, and community across its characters, while noting the diverse representations.[51]

Sean O'Neal of Texas Monthly criticized the show for its stereotypical portrayal of Texas, and the "baffling" choice of Austin for a conservative Texas setting.[52]
