Any other browncoats out there enjoying Leary's Rescue Me firefighter show on F/X? I love this show...which means it'll probably get canceled.

I am enjoying it. I have to tape it because it's on a school night and catch up later. Denis Leary said it would be edgier than Thirdwatch, and he wasn't kidding.

I saw some character development last week, when the latest addition to Tommy's ghost menagerie vanished after he told his wife she deserved to find her happiness. I missed this week's though, with the psychiatrist.

And no, I'm not getting attached to it. Just because Nip and Tuck has been on for awhile now is no reason to think Rescue Me will survive. See how jaded I've become?

I'm all about firemen.

That great, Channain! Thank God there's someone else watching it. I haven't found anyone else where I'm at.

Also found this, looks like the show's doing pretty well....

From Don Kaplan of the New York Post

August 26, 2004 -- After setting the ratings charts ablaze, Denis Leary's cable drama "Rescue Me" has been picked up for a second season.

FX has renewed the show about New York City firemen, asking for at least 13 additional episodes. The series is filmed on location around New York City and draws about 9.5 million viewers over the course of its five airings each week.

It averages about 2 million viewers ages 18-49 — the key audience prized by advertisers — in its Wednesday 10 p.m. slot. That's turned out to be the highest total in that demographic for a new basic cable show this year.

That should be good. It seems the dead people Tommy sees disappear when he lights a candle at the church for them. Although he started to develop a relationship with the psychiatrist, he pretty much lost it by destroying the guy's deck. Also...eegads, one of the firefighters dies next week.

Oh...

And the theme song had to be my favorite of all time. It rocks my a$$ off.

I've been watching for the past 4 weeks and LOVE it! Are we going to have to wait until next summer to see season 2?? Jeez, I hope not.

Also, does anyone else think Tommy should have turned in the whack-job blonde who torched his house??? Hell-O!! Psycho!!

He definitely should have turned her in. I bet we haven't seen the last of her.

Blackoutnights

You asked about how to mask the spoilers... next time you go to make a post, have a look in the left hand navigation. There is a section called "commands" and that contains the start/stop commands for spoilers

Select to view spoiler:


this should be a spoiler. The start command is the square open bracket, the word spoiler and then the closeing square bracket. When I am ready to finish my spoilery section, I do the same again but instead of the word spoiler I use /spoiler.

Ok, when the heck is Tommy going to get in trouble for all the crap he does? He's drinking, bangin' every chick who breathes near him--including his dead brother's widow!--beating people up, closing their credit cards electronically, giving his dad bags of pills that kill monkies, almost burning junkies alive....my point: isn't this guy supposed to be SAVING people??

Opinions? Anyone?
