The 9-1-1:Lone Star is a spinoff of the 9-1-1 series that garnered much attention and positive reviews. Even the spinoff, although not as much as the original, still managed to get positive reviews after its first premiere. In April 2020, it was renewed for a second season by Fox. A third season first premiered on January 3, 2022.
The third season has a total of 10 episodes and the 9th episode titled, The Bird, is coming out this Monday. It is a bittersweet moment as the season is soon going to end but also I really want to know how things will progress after the last episode that left me in tears.
