What Will9-1-1Season 8 Look Like?Stars Ryan Guzman And Peter Krause Weigh In

As noted in a previous piece, 9-1-1‘s Ryan Guzman and Peter Krause spoke to Decider ahead of Season 7’s finale and took some time to tease Season 8.

Based on the Season 7 finale cliffhanger, we can assume that a large part of Season 7 will focus on the 118 adjusting to their new leader, Captain Gerrard (Brian Thompson), and presumably see Bobby trying to get his old job back.

“It was a bit of a storytelling leap,”Krause told Decider over Zoomwhen asked about Captain Gerrard taking control of the 118. “I’m not sure exactly what Tim [Minear] has planned. But I’m sure it’s not going to be an immediately easy road for Bobby to regain the captainship of the 118. I have faith that he will. But I’m not sure I’m not sure exactly what he’s got got in store.”

As for his hopes for Bobby and Athena, Krause said he wants to see a continuation of Bathena’s honeymoon — on land, this time. “I would like to see Athena and Bobby go on an RV trip. I just feel like afterThe Poseidon Adventureepisodes that there’s still some honeymoon that they haven’t completed yet. And I think that somehow on an RV trip, what could go wrong?” Krause laughed. According to Krause, however, “Athena is still on the case about how their house burned down. So I think that that is probably fuel for the beginning of Season 8.”

DuringDecider’s finale interview with Ryan Guzman, the9-1-1actor also shared his predictions and hopes for the future of Eddie, Christopher, and the 118. With Christopher gone, “That leaves Eddie in new territory, which can be scary on both spectrums of life,” Guzman said. “Is he going to go back into the craziness of beating his walls and going nuts and losing himself? Or is he going to choose something that we’ve never seen in these past seven seasons? My hope is the latter, obviously. But if the first one comes, that’ll be interesting as an actor.”

Regarding Eddie’s connection to Kim (and Shannon), the actor said he hopes for “some premonitions of Shannon or Kim coming back into his life, saying, “I don’t know if we’re done with her yet. But if we are done with her, then I think Eddie is going to have a very rough Season 8.”

Guzman also teased more about Eddie’s relationship with religion and possible scenes with his family (the long lost sisters!) but as for the 118, he said, “We know Gerrard is the worst version of human. So I think Season 8 is, to say the least, going to be difficult navigating, because there won’t be that open family atmosphere. I won’t be coming to Cap for my problems. It’ll be a handle it on your own situation. So that might actually propel Eddie to start to handle these issues by himself again and be seeking out Cap in a way that he never has before. It’s gonna be a lot of variables now with Gerrard, and I think it changes the whole scope of what the 118 is.”
