3/5
Even though Hen gives some notes on the medical accuracy of the scene, Hotshots is a show built on suspension of disbelief, and so, ultimately, is 9-1-1. Go to Full Review Katey Stoetzel But Why Tho? A Geek Community 02/25/2025
6.5/10
This first half of 9-1-1 Season 8 has been inconsistent, but there have been some gems. 9-1-1 Season 8 Episode 8 didn’t quite bring things home, though. Go to Full Review Lissete Lanuza Sáenz Fangirlish 02/18/2025
9-1-1 Season 8, Episode 8 “Wannabes” spends way too long on the cop cart storyline, and slightly too long on the Brad of it all, but it’s still a pretty decent episode despite that because the Eddie parts make up for it. Go to Full Review Katie Doll CBR 11/25/2024
5/10
"Wannabes" is amusing, meta and just the right amount of weird. But it's also an unfitting midseason finale that doesn't pack a punch. Go to Full Review Mads Misasi Tell-Tale TV 11/24/2024
4/5
Whether we are following a cart situation that goes farther than we expect or find ourselves actually rooting for Brad, this show is one we come back to time and again because of the heart at the center. Go to Full Review Whitney Evans TV Fanatic 11/22/2024
3.8/5
Unfortunately, this hour felt like any other hour of the series, which isn’t a bad thing but certainly not what you expect from the last hour before a lengthy hiatus. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
