I’m not saying he’s not staying longer than planed but with Oliver you have to also take his interviews with many grains of salt. Like love him to death but he also says things like this about every possible LI he gets. Just look at the last few interviews from season 6 where he was going on about the future of Buck and Natalia and how excited he was is to see it play out in season 7 and explore their dynamic etc. and then we all saw what happened with that lol.

to be fair, when he said those things, Fox hadn't cancelled 9-1-1 yet & ABC hadn't picked it up. for all he figured, Buck & Natalia could've been something in s7 had it been on fox and things didn't play out the way they did. & I don't blame him for saying things like this about every LI cuz I'm sure he prob hopes at least 1 will stick around for some time. Buck has certainly drawn the short end of the stick as far as LI's go, but Tommy is incredibly different than any of his past LI's and, frankly, whether you like BuckTommy or not, it'd be stupid to just brush him aside when this pairing allows for a ton of new, rich storylines that they can tell.

And isn't getting Buck off that hamster wheel Kristen put him on in seasons 5 & 6 the entire point of this?

#anon ask #911 abc #evan buckley #tommy kinard #bucktommy #oliver stark #nothing anyone can say will convince me that tommy is leaving soon #it makes 0 sense from a narrative point of view about where they want to take Buck's story #if you view things from a storytelling perspective there's always gonna be logical steps to take #with Tim back in the driver's seat you can't use the last 2 seasons as a point of reference #cuz he's trying to undo a lot of things Kristen messed up #Buck getting a steady love interest that's different from his last ones?#Buck discovering he's a queer man with feelings for another man?#yeah you can't tell this story in 4 episodes and buck has already said he wants something with Tommy #they're not gonna end it out of nowhere and i truly believe that
