There’s a new firefighter/hero saving show on Fox that is being streamed on Hulu. It is originally a spin off show on the original series called 9-1-1. This show officially aired on January 19, 2020 with 3 episodes on Hulu. 

The show starts off by showing a dramatic clip of the fighter team of Fire Station 126 fighting a fire that killed every firefighter on the team except for one, Judd Ryder. Six months later the story moves us to New York with firefighter captain, Captain Owen Strand, who built his team from the ground up after  9/11. Strand is diagnosed with cancer at the beginning of the series as a result of being a first responder on 9/11. Captain Strand gets the opportunity to move to Austin, Texas to rebuild firefighter house 126 with his son T.K. At first hesitant to move, Stand takes the offer once his son suffers from an opioid overdose from his failed relationship.  He thinks changing locations will help his son, T.K.

Upon moving to Austin, Texas, they start to build a new and diverse firefighter team from the ground up. They hire Marjan Marwani, a firefighter/paramedic who is a devout Muslim women, Paul Strickland, a firefighter who is also a trans man, Mateo Chavez, a rookie firefighter and Judd Ryder who is the sole survivor of 126’s opening fire disaster. The second main character is Michelle Blake, the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) captain. She is also trying to locate her sister Iris, who has been missing for three years while still trying to focus on her paramedic job. We also get to meet Grace Ryder who is a 9-1-1 operator and Judd’s wife. Later, in episode three we meet Carlos Reyes who is a police officer with the Austin Police Department and he begins a romantic relationship with TK Strand.

On Rotten Tomatoes, the series has an approval rating of 75% based on eight reviews, with an average rating of 7.67 out of 10. It’s a great show that has an emotional appeal while showing the dangerous lives of firefighters.
