Take a look in the gallery for a preview of photos of Angela Bassett as Athena Grant from tonight’s episode of 9-1-1

In part one of a two-part episode, the 118 is called to a research lab that has been set on fire and becomes a biohazard.

Welcome to Angela Bassett Forever (www.angela-bassett.com), your new online source for info and photos and more on actress Angela Bassett, to whom I love to refer to as Queen Bassett cause, well, there is no one like Queen Ramonda from Wakanda, is it?

A while ago, too long while to remember, my dear wonderful friend Holly and I were working on this site, but Life has a funny way to get in between and we never arrived to point of publishing. And now I am here to complete that task and move on, cause I love Angela, she is worth the work and I’m newly addicted to 9-1-1.
As you can see the site is far from being complete, I need to work on the whole content pages part, but wanted to open the gallery and work actively on the site while the show is running and share the fun with you all.

I want to take a moment and thanks Holly, for always supporting my crazy ideas, one Jen and then another Jen for the support and help provided in these months, sometimes also for just hearing me saying “I’m never gonna get out of this” and then always getting out of it. You ladies are my rocks!!!

Hope to see you numerous. You can follow the site updates on bluesky and twitter.

ABC‘s procedural drama 9-1-1 has been renewed for a ninth season with an 18-episode order, sources tell Deadline.

The news of the show’s renewal isn’t surprising as the series remains a top linear and digital performer for the network and Hulu.

Created by Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Tim Minear, 9-1-1 follows the lives of Los Angeles first responders: police officers, paramedics, firefighters, and dispatchers.

The series stars Angela Bassett, Peter Krause, Oliver Stark, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Ryan Guzman, Aisha Hinds, Kenneth Choi, and Gavin McHugh.

9-1-1 originally premiered in 2018 on Fox, where it ran for six seasons before being canceled. The 20th Television show was rescued by Disney-owned ABC, which picked it up for a seventh season that premiered in 2024.

In its eighth season (its second on ABC), 9-1-1 continues to be a solid player for the network. The series ranks second in viewers and No. 1 in L+SD adults 18-49.

9-1-1 will be joined next season by its spinoff, 9-1-1: Nashville, which ABC ordered straight to series last month. Chris O’Donnell is set to star in the offshoot as Captain Don Sharpe, a rugged fire captain and rodeo rider who runs Nashville’s busiest firehouse with his beloved son. Don’s a devoted husband and family man, but he has his secrets.

Season 8 of 9-1-1 has seen the 118 deal with killer bees, Bassett’s Athena land an airplane on the 110 freeway in Downtown L.A., and Hewitt’s Maddie’s throat get slashed.

9-1-1 also saw a crossover with Murphy’s Doctor Odyssey.
