‘9-1-1: Nashville’ Boss Breaks Down Don’s Family Drama & History With Dixie

Tornados have hit 9-1-1: Nashville — both the actual one that’s threatening the lives of the 113 and the metaphorical one that Don (Chris O’Donnell) and his team and family have to deal with. The series premiere saw Don introduce his son Ryan (Michael Provost), whom he shares with wife Blythe (Jessica Capshaw), to his other son, Blue (Hunter McVey), whom he had with Dixie (LeAnn Rimes) while the spouses were separated. (Blythe already knew about him.) But Dixie’s up to something, and now Blue’s joining the 113. Below, showrunner Rashad Raisani breaks down the family drama of 9-1-1: Nashville, teases an upcoming crossover moment, and much more.
