History HoYay / LiveActionTV

* "Series/NineOneOne": Between firefighters Evan "Buck" Buckley and Eddie Diaz. From their introduction episode together where they go from enemies to friends very quickly to moments like Eddie making Buck his son Christopher's legal guardian over his relatives in case he dies, and Buck, Eddie, and Christopher's scenes together, to the way they've reacted to the various times each of them have been injured/nearly died on the show (Eddie being buried and Buck being struck by lightning come to mind), their relationship is full of palpable chemistry.
** Additionally, it has been winked at by the show through moments like an elf at a Christmas display in an early episode telling Buck that he and Eddie have an adorable son (referring to Christopher) and Buck not correcting her, as well as social media comments on an in-show livestream saying that two of them would be cute together.
** [[spoiler: With Buck being revealed as bisexual in Season 7, the network switch of the show from FOX to ABC, Buck's male love interest's actor revealing that his storyline with Buck was originally supposed to be with Eddie, and Buck and Eddie's potential romantic pairing being openly (and seriously) referenced in interviews (but not as canon yet), some have started to wonder if 9-1-1 is playing the slow burn long game with actually pairing them up romantically, which would make it a rare case where the Ho Yay went from subtext to text. Of course, nothing has happened yet, so it remains to be seen how it will end up.]]

*** It gets complicated when Dr. Marisa Casseras ([[NewOldFlame Boris's old flame]]) debuts. Things are [[FriendVersusLover initially tense between Marisa and Hank]]; their interactions are best described as meeting [[LoveTriangle an ex who's still in love and that your significant other still likes]]. Hank sees them dancing together and looks like a pissed off [[ClingyJealousGirl boyfriend]]. Once things become much more amicable between the two doctors the ThreesomeSubtext shoots through the roof. Marisa desires for them to stay together, being the cause of Boris and Hank's reconciliation [[spoiler: when Boris chose to emotionally push Hank away by evicting him from Shadow Pond]]. Then having no objections to Boris's offer for Hank [[spoiler: to join them as they travel the world that summer (Hank accepts)]] or in the finale, for Hank to [[spoiler: become apart of their family (sadly he declines)]]. With Marisa constantly PutOnTheBus or taking a backseat, and [[SatelliteLoveInterest none of Hank's other relationships]] ever panning out, it's hard to tell who their [[LoveInterest Love Interests]] are supposed to be. "Especially'' with how Boris phrases how his former offer requires he be Hank's exclusive patient.

*** After a series of lies, Hank confronts Boris exactly what his intentions are for having a shark in his basement (yes, you read that correctly) and the true purpose behind letting Hank stay at Shadow Pond. Though only knowing each other for a short time, Boris reveals the real reason why was not just to have Hank be his doctor. It was to have someone he knew he could trust to stay and help treat the crippling symptoms and dementia caused by his [[ThereIsNoCure condition]] until his [[StayWithMeUntilIDie inevitable death]].

Hank sees them dancing together and looks like a pissed off [[ClingyJealousGirl boyfriend]]. Once things become much more amicable between the two doctors, Marisa tries to keep the two together, up to the point she [[spoiler: refuses to move into Shadow Pond unless Hank returns; angered Boris evicted Hank in order to emotionally push him away. After seeing Hank for the first time in months]] Boris realizes he wants the same. With Marisa constantly PutOnTheBus or taking a backseat, and [[SatelliteLoveInterest none of Hank's other relationships]] ever panning out, it's hard to tell who their [[LoveInterest Love Interests]] are supposed to be. ''Especially'' with how Boris's desire to become Hank's sole patient sounds more like requesting your casual dating partner to enter into a mutual relationship.

*** The ThreesomeSubtext shoots through the roof when Boris clarifies [[spoiler: his initial offer to Hank to join him as he leaves the Hamptons for good wasn't as his doctor, but as part of his family]]. From Hank's playful accusation Boris was "seducing [him] with nostalgia" to their [[spoiler: tight emotional embrace, where Boris seems utterly crushed over Hank's decision to stay behind]], the series finale is packed with it.

** Could that be called "[[IncrediblyLamePun Auto-eroticism]]"?

** No commentary on the Ho Yay present in this show is complete without a mention of Luke and Clyde. During a webchat from university in series three, Luke decides to mess with him by claiming to have really 'clicked' with one of his new mates. Clyde's reaction is pure jealousy. Creator/RussellTDavies has [[WordOfGay confirmed]] in a DVD commentary that Luke is gay and that had the series continued his relationship with his new "friend" would have been overtly depicted as romantic.

** The majority of interactions between [[TheMedic doctor]] [[HospitalHottie Hank Lawson]] with [[ManipulativeBastard patient]] [[SilverFox Boris Kuester von Jurgens-Ratenicz]] are in the form of intimate walks/talks together. For people who'd just met, the two form an extraordinarily close bond. How close? Despite whatever disagreements between them, [[ProperlyParanoid Boris]] knows he can still depend on and tries to work in a way that benefits Hank. Though only knowing each for a short time, Boris reveals the real reason why he proposed Hank stay at Shadow Pond was not just to be his doctor, but to have someone he knew he could trust to stay and help treat the crippling symptoms and dementia caused by his [[ThereIsNoCure condition]] until his [[StayWithMeUntilIDie inevitable death]]. While Hank doesn't appreciate being deceived, manipulated, or the conflicts it can cause in his life, remains dedicated no matter what issues they're having and does enjoy helping Boris out in the different world he operates in. [[OddFriendship The two]] navigate a [[DysfunctionJunction tricky dynamic]] with [[UnequalPairing one another]]; [[BelligerentSexualTension their relationship can be on the outs for a variety of reasons]], but they'd [[EasilyForgiven just as easily embrace the opportunity to move past any disputes]] so they can [[AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther be together again]].
