AceShowbiz - Less than a month away from its premiere, "9-1-1" season 8 is gearing up for an unforgettable emergency arc. Following tradition, the season will open with a multi-episode event, this time centered around a swarm of bees.
A newly released video unveils the full scale of the impending danger. According to experts, the average human cannot withstand more than 500 bee stings. The video depicts an enormous swarm of bees descending upon Los Angeles, posing a significant threat to the city.
The series' showrunner Tim Minear is known for drawing inspiration from classic disaster movies. The season 7 opener paid homage to "The Poseidon Adventure" and this season's bee-related emergency serves as an homage to "The Swarm", a 1978 film about killer bees.
In "Bee-Nado", as the emergency is reportedly titled, the 118 crew faces the daunting task of protecting the city while exploring personal storylines. The series stars Peter Krause, Angela Bassett, Aisha Hinds, Kenneth Choi, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Ryan Guzman and Oliver Stark.
"9-1-1" season 8 premieres on ABC on Thursday, September 26 at 8 P.M. Previous seasons are available for streaming on Hulu.
