Rob Lowe and company are back for Season 5 of 911: Lone Star, Fox's hit fire-fighting drama.
Developed by renowned showrunner Ryan Murphy (who released Monsters, featuring a stacked cast, on Netflix), 911 follows Rob Lowe's Owen Strand, a firefighter who relocates from the hustle and bustle of New York City to the relative tranquility of Austin, Texas.
In the four seasons up to this point, the series has seen Strand and co. fight many a blaze while balancing the adjustment one must undertake when making a cross-country move.
