my point: isn't this guy supposed to be SAVING people??


Read the title of the show again. It's not referring to victims.

Which is, of course, why the show is so good.

EDIT - And I actually haven't been able to watch it consistently, damnit, so I have no idea what's up, but it's high on my to do list to catch up.

Oh, and he'll get in trouble eventually. Which will make it all the more interesting.

Radhil:

I don't know how much of the beginning of the season I missed. I just kind of stumbled over the show about 6 weeks ago. Also, I missed the ep where Tommy does his "What About Bob" impression, so I know how you feel. (FYI: I just wanted to continue this thread, I don't really want him to go to jail or anything.)

I've seen every episode of "Rescue Me" and "What About Bob?" is probably one of my favorite movies and I can't figure out what you're referring to as Tommy's Bob impression...

Jutin,

Well, I only saw the previews for it, not the ep itself, but the one 2(?) weeks ago where he makes friends with a psychiatrist and then proceeds to bombard him with questions and generally makes a pest of himself. Doesn't Tommy wreck his deck or something? Anyway, that's the episode I missed, so I could have gotten the wrong impression from the preview.

I saw one episode and didn't like it. Not passing judgement yet, as I had the same reaction to firefly though and look how wrong I was there.

Um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm Angry. And I'm Armed.

Love this show! Makes me think, laugh, cry & sometimes cringe. That to me is the hallmark of a good story, it holds your interest & can bring you to the edge of your seat. I'm hoping this one sticks around for awhile.

I know Firefighters in NYC and I respect them tremendously. Having said that, the liberties taken by this show, in their opinion, are well within their welcoming arms. I LOVE this show!!
It is entertaining adn give a semi-realistic view of the FDNY. Most of all, it keeps our focus on people who are everyday heroes.

I'm not a civil servant, but Rescue Me helps us remember to thank our everyday heroes. It is a tribute to Leary that he keeps them in his mind and heart as he and his people write these episodes. I very much lok forward to next season.

I unfortunately only saw parts of two episodes but really enjoyed it. Very funny and full of surprises. Glad to hear it's still on.

Man the last episode bummed me out,

It ended on such a low note.....

Thankfully I know more is coming because I would have been pissed if the series had of ended there...

An excellent show
