Fans of 9-1-1: Lone Star are going to be excited because season 5 is almost here, and one of the biggest changes will be the absence of Grace (played by Sierra McClain). This comes after contract issues unfortunately meant that McClain couldn't reprise her role.
Judd's Reaction to Grace's Departure
The actor who plays Judd, Jim Parrack, spoke to TVLine about what to expect for the new season. It's definitely going to be an interesting journey! What makes things difficult for Judd is his new reality. His wife, Grace left town in season 4 after the finale!
The decision came as Grace chose to volunteer with Mercy Ships which was clearly an important call for her to support those in need around the world! It sounds like Judd has found a way to be supportive despite all the difficulties and really found the need to continue providing for his children.
Hidden Anger:
While it seems that he is doing ok with the big change Parrack suggests things may not be so rosy. While he has support and seems happy for Grace there’s this undercurrent of anger that seems to brew inside.
The show focuses on bringing more to audiences than those wild, heroic scenes! They show how these emotions ripple in ways viewers may never think of before. In fact, you are going to see those emotions really come out! The emotional build-up can result in a serious disruption between Judd and others!
Judd's Storyline in the Final Season
9-1-1: Lone Star season 5 is going to be the final season. So what will be covered, looks incredibly important, and this might be even more crucial for this beloved show.
At this moment, we see him focusing on improving things at home and he's found a way to navigate things with his son, Wyatt. You see, he wants to help make their home better as Wyatt was left paralyzed. This time he has to take on more in this final season!
What To Expect:
Fans really get a feel that things won't remain so calm for Judd! While his reaction may be delayed and seems controlled for now, that pent-up anger is sure to explode!
Although he loves Grace and supports her efforts with Mercy Ships the burden falls solely on his shoulders. His reaction will have an immense effect on others! The question is, how does it effect his already complicated relationship?
The Finale:
What the 9-1-1: Lone Star producers have done so far seems really moving! The producers are adding to the series' storylines.
They have a keen sense for knowing what makes the series enjoyable! Those big-screen moments. Those tense and challenging interactions. What happens with Judd? You might have your expectations but to see him face some of the major difficulties he's facing could be the thing that many viewers were waiting to see!
