‘9-1-1: Lone Star’ Boss and Star Rob Lowe Break Down Series Finale, That Verizon Ad and Whether They’ll Return on ABC’s ‘9-1-1’ or New Spinoff


"9-1-1: Lone Star" showrunner and cast break down the emotional series finale.

After five seasons of life-saving, it’s time to thank the 126 for their service and say goodbye to “9-1-1: Lone Star.” On the series finale episode of the Ryan Murphy-created Fox first-responder drama, a spinoff of the series “9-1-1” (which now airs on ABC), Owen Strand ( Rob Lowe) saves the day — and all of Austin, Texas — by deactivating a nuclear reactor that’s been set off by an asteroid collision. It’s the big bang ending that “9-1-1” franchise fans expected from a show that prides itself on its increasingly wild emergencies, and a heart-wrenching one until it’s final moments. With “9-1-1” still going strong on its new network ABC — and “Lone Star” being canceled at Fox primarily due to complications surrounding Disney’s ownership of the franchise’s studio, 20th Television, not its lack of popularity — Lowe, Rubinstein and Silva have all expressed interest in reprising their roles either on the Los Angeles-set “9-1-1” or the upcoming spinoff in the works at ABC.
