911 Lone Star to officially end after five seasons on FOX

BBG News

As a devoted fan who has followed this captivating journey of heroism and camaraderie since its inception, I must say it feels like a bitter-sweet moment to learn that 911: Lone Star is drawing to a close after five thrilling seasons. The news, though expected due to recent cast changes, still leaves a void in my heart that can only be filled by the adrenaline-pumping drama of the Austin firefighters and dispatchers.

Unfortunately, it’s been confirmed that “911: Lone Star” will be wrapping up after a five-season run on FOX. Previous rumors hinted at an ending, but now it’s official. Starring Rob Lowe, the series chronicled firefighting exploits in Austin, Texas, and even had one crossover episode with the show that initiated the spin-off

In order to clarify this concept, let us consider the following:

When Grace wasn’t around, it became clear that her stepson, Wyatt Harris, would take on the role of dispatcher temporarily filling in for her. Interestingly enough, the actor portraying Wyatt, Jackson Pace, has been promoted to a regular cast member for season 5. However, it remains uncertain how Grace’s character will be exited from the show at this point

By Deadline, it seems highly unlikely that Lone Star will switch to ABC like its former counterpart did. Unlike 9-1-1, which was terminated by FOX after six seasons, the show was rescued by ABC and is now embarking on its eighth season. The final season of Lone Star is scheduled to debut on Monday, September 23 at 8/7c and is expected to consist of 12 episodes in total

What went into the decision to cancel 911: Lone Star?

Ultimately, the reason for cancelling the series was primarily financial; FOX has to pay a license fee for the show, and it ended up costing more money to produce than they were receiving in revenue. Disney-owned 20th TV was helping cover the licensing fee and production costs, but it still resulted in a budget shortfall

As I eagerly anticipate season 5, I can’t help but feel a sense of excitement knowing that Captain Owen Strand (Lowe) and Captain Tommy Vega, skillfully portrayed by Gina Torres, will once again lead the team. In the aftermath of a devastating train derailment, their mission will be to assist victims and save lives. Previews for the premiere hint at potential perils not only for those they’re trying to help but also for some of our beloved characters. Buckle up, it’s going to be a thrilling ride!

Additionally, the show features actors like Natacha Karam, Ronen Rubenstein, Julian Works, Brianna Baker, Rafael Silva, and Brian Michael Smith

911: Lone Star Season 5 premieres on Monday, Sept. 23 at 8/7c on FOX.
