Am I the only one watching this? This is my favorite new show by far. Follows paramedics and rescue helicopter pilots. Awesome show, highly recommended.

really? shit I hope it doesn't get cancelled. The episodes are really action packed and enjoyable. No big name actors though.

I think that's what turned me off about it. From the previews, it looks like Michael Bay meets ER.

I might watch an episode next week to give a genuine opinion.

For once (Seinfeld excepted), I'd like to see a show where nothing happens: No multicar pileups with the possibility of a toxic explosion enveloping the city; no moral dilemma about rescuing a child killer who got in an accident and is now paralyzed from the neck down; no tragic/regretable/"It was a one time thing" office romance...just people sitting around doing mundane things like running out of paperclips or wondering what to get for lunch. Ya know?

Probably not. It's just a half hour sitcom that only ran for one season. I enjoyed it, and I don't really remember there being a point to the show other than the and character wanting to sit around and watch tv.

Stuff like that can be very funny. I'm more inclined to like offbeat pacing like you see on shows like Nurse Jackie, Hung, Weeds, US of Tara, etc.

I can't stand the proliferation of formulaic legal and hospital shows. It's like chain lighting blue angels...

Look, all we're saying is that you have horrible taste in television shows and therefore are an awful human being. There's no need to get all defensive about it.

King tanner is not an awful human being. He may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, an awful human being, but he is not a porn star.

Hate you all

and I have dabbled in porn a little. There are naked photos on the internet somewhere.

It wasn't about this show in particular...it's just about medical and legal shows in general. Surely they've run out of plotlines? Can we move on to some William Gibson-esque cyberpunk shows? Provided they don't star Keanu Reeves, of course.

I watched a re-broadcast of the first episode and it sucked.

Michael Bay meets ER is pretty much spot on.

I do like the lead actor but not nearly enough to subject myself to this nonsense.

Nonsense is a good word for this show. I tried watching a full episode and I couldn't do it. I read a review where someone said that the pyrotechnics are cool but the script was clearly written by a 3rd grade class as a project. I have to agree. One scene I watched was just so terrible writing wise. The show doesn't seem to be doing well and most likely wont get renewed imo.

I also think George Lopez is really funny.

I probably spelled it wrong.

At the end of every other sentance, Lopez says Meta, I think it's like 'mee-O'

He was on the radio and I swear he said it 20 times
