9-1-1

I'm pretty sure I saw it on the Twittersphere.

I was also in my Marvel space, and I probably was following, like, a bunch of Supernatural accounts, but a lot of the people who I follow from Supernatural, w- they were watching 9-1-1.

But it was, like, the same clip retweeted.

I could not escape this man in his own pool of blood staring at this other man.

Yeah.

Like, w- even without context.

And I think I probably went on a little bit of a 9-1-1 deep dive because I was like, "Okay, so, wow, they're gonna kill the guy? Wow." [laughs]

Mm-hmm.

But like, my God, like the footprint on this, who-- Like, I mean, wow.

I, like it's that like, it's like that, like, that, that "9-1-1" show, which I only know from like the, the, that meme with like the asteroids.

Um-

[chuckles]

Um, that's a written article, so you won't be able to, um, you know, stream that on the podcast.

That's just a written article with, with Josh, and we talked about the, the process in hiring Peter, uh, Krause and how us 9-1-1 fans are still upset that we lost Bobby.

But I have to tell you, I went in watching that.

I watched the first two episodes ahead of the premiere, and I sat there already in my feelings upset, like, "This gonna be trash.

Fuck this show because he needs to be on 9-1-1." And it...

I, I'm sorry, I liked it.

I know there's some bigger main publications with- that didn't... that wrote about, you know, reviewed the show, and they didn't per se like it.

He deserves to be on TV.

I'm not quite sure any of those.

You could play the 9-1-1's a joke by Public Enemy about the ambulance service in America.

Yeah, that'd be a

really cheery

and that i groomed her since she was 13. dark documentaries on netflix in case anyone doesn't know on netflix it's a documentary the preacher's wife still not really solved he's just out and about with a new version of her again creepy when it's like they all look too much like but also creepy that she was found dead in a river and like all this weird stuff that doesn't line up but a week after so he's a preacher and all of his sermons are like and thou doth not provide sex for thou husband thou husband will get on thou x videos and doth you porn and it's like what it's like and he'll get prostitutes and that's because you didn't provide for him and it's like and those were like sermons like how many old videos did they show a

ton but it's also creepy that she like called 9-1-1 and was like i'm about to kill myself and i just want someone to know like here are my coordinates my body yeah it's like

she was like out in the woods and there were three shells or like three shots fired

Yeah, none of it matches.

And so obviously I have to start with the purse- the first, uh, things being themselves on purpose, and probably the most important news of the day.

day.Which is that there is a new trailer out for the new season, Season 10 of 9-1-1.

[laughs] And I think as I've made very clear on this program, I don't watch 9-1-1.

I experience it through the trailers, through internet osmosis, and through my friend Allison, who I will be quoting shortly.

[laughs] I love an Allison appearance.

Who, as soon as I saw this trailer, I was like, "I gotta know what happened on the last season of 9-1-1 that I didn't watch," because I was told, uh, that meteors were coming.

Right.

And I don't...

In Never Have I Ever, he played Bess, the smart, attractive guy who helped flip the script on who gets to be the Hollywood crush.

As Ravi Panikkar on 9-1-1, he brings organic South Asian representation to a massive American ensemble drama without making it a talking point.

Rather than waiting for Hollywood to change, he co-founded Black Velvet Films to produce and build stories from the inside out.

His character on 9-1-1 built a strong fan following, leading to appearances at first responder fan conventions like Rescue Verse and Saving Lives Gone.

And finally, beneath the Hollywood sheen is a Texas upbringing shaped by family roots connected to Kerala, a mix of distinct regions, languages and memories.

Anirudh Pishrodi was on the classic pre-med path with a public health degree from UT Austin, and then he chose acting.

So that is very nice.

Thank you so much for sharing some of those things.

That said, just because Teegarden has mastered this genre doesn't preclude her from pursuing roles in other categories.

She worked on the action drama 9-1-1, on comedy western The Lamp, The Ranch, coming-of-age drama Friday Night Lights, a cluster of horror projects, including Scream 4 and the upcoming Horrified.

Plus, this writer's cult favorite pick, the Romeo and Juliet meets aliens romantic auctioner Starcrossed.

Teagarden now stars alongside Hallmark mainstay Chris McNally in Love Finds You.

This week, we discuss Josh's origin story, Athena's lessons in letting go,

and Buck's big brain 9-1-1 moment.

Have you ever watched something that completely rewired your brain chemistry? A procedural network drama might not be your usual pick, but it's ours.

This is The Buddy System, a 911

Because again, in like 404, we had like a little bit of a detective thing in Thinking of Dispatch.

It was the whole heist.

So just kind of things that are a little different and like almost a different genre of procedural in a very fun way you know and then this episode was directed by Tasha Smith she also directed 307 Athena Begins which that was also written by Kristen Rydell so we have a Kristen Rydell and Tasha Smith team up again which I always like to see and I'm pretty sure Tasha Smith is a friend of Angela Bassett and that's one of the reasons why she was brought on for Athena Begins in the first place and And this is the last episode of 9-1-1 that we see her direct, but we will see her in front of the camera in season nine, specifically starting in 9-14 DIY, where she plays Gabby Bond, who is Athena's lawyer and friend from college.

And according to the 9-1-1 fandom wiki, And I thought this was really interesting.

And Tracy's in LA filming a television series.

I don't know the network, but it's called 9-1-1.

And she's been a regular on that for years.

And then Brandon just finished Ragtime.
