[This story contains spoilers from season seven, episode five of , “You Don’t Recognize Me.”]
For seven seasons on and five seasons on its spinoff Lone Star, co-creator and showrunner Tim Minear has consistently found new (and surprising) ways to deepen the relationships in his most successful TV world to date.
But Minear saved arguably his biggest twist for the th episode of the original series, which aired last Thursday. In it, Evan “Buck” Buckley (Oliver Stark), who began the long-running Fox-turned-ABC procedural as a womanizing sex addict, shares an unexpected kiss with Tommy Kinard (Lou Ferrigno Jr.), a former firefighter and current LAFD Gas Operations pilot. Since then, this storyline has been the subject of much discussion on social media, making one of the few network shows to become appointment viewing in today’s crowded TV landscape.

Why 's historic decision to make Buck queer was seven years in the making
For seven seasons, fans have been calling on the showrunners to construct the queer-coded character Evan 'Buck' Buckley explicitly queer – and to my huge surprise, it's finally happened.
Season seven episode four, 'Buck, Bothered and Bewildered', saw the character grow jealous over Eddie Diaz's new friendship with Tommy Kinard, only for Buck to know by the end that it was never Eddie's friendship he was worried about but rather Tommy's attention, and the pair kissed.
Fans have fallen in love with the personality 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 personality 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.
