I was curious about the show 911 because I saw a billboard of Angela Basset in a space suit & wondered how LAPD ended up in space.

I was shocked & horrified to find out the show has 8 seasons & several spin-offs.

I'm enjoying the storylines because they are extremely dramatic & also dumb as shit.

'Untitled' was unironically part of my gay awakening so this is very saddening. And he was only in his 50s. RIP.
