fans are one step closer to Buddie. After his kiss with with Tommy in Season 7, Episode 4, fans have had countless questions about Buck&#;s sexuality on and what&#;s next for the character&#;s romantic-life (and whether it could include another firefighter viewers have been shipping him with for years.)

‘’ Committed to a Gay Character. Will Other Shows Follow Suit? 

When TV series aired its th episode on April 4, the Los Angeles-set ABC firefighter drama, known for pitting its characters against tsunamis and hijacked cruise ships, did something so wild, so unexpected, that even day-one fans were left shocked: They had one of their main characters kiss another man.

Why 's historic decision to generate Buck queer was seven years in the making

For seven seasons, fans have been calling on the showrunners to make the queer-coded character Evan 'Buck' Buckley explicitly queer – and to my gigantic surprise, it's finally happened.

Fans have fallen in love with the character of Buck (played by Oliver Stark) over the past seven years, acknowledging his tender heart and willingness to jump without thinking for those he loves. Many have also argued that the character has long been queer-coded – when a character's sexual orientation is implied by significant subtext without being stated outright – using canonical moments from across the seven seasons in their arguments.
