Louis Peitzman New York Magazine/Vulture May 2
5/5
For a show that often leans into silliness, it’s an impressively sober depiction of the stages of grief — here, mostly denial and anger — and it culminates in a fitting send-off for the character. Go to Full Review

1/10
If this week's episode is what we should expect from 9-1-1 from now on, then the show had better course correct quickly, because it's just not sustainable. Go to Full Review

Within the context of what this show is, the episode is a pretty wild tonal swing for the show—something to be expected when you kill off one of your main characters—that doesn’t quite land as well as it should. Go to Full Review

At the end of the day, this episode falls short on so many fronts but does justice for the characters who do get to show their emotions. Go to Full Review

9-1-1 Season 8 Episode 16 is an emotional ringer, and despite some wonky pacing, it perfectly sets the tone for what 9-1-1 can look like without Bobby Nash. Go to Full Review
