As the 911 anniversary approaches, God Bless the NYFD and their families. We must never forget "Some gave all".
PLEASE NOTE: ---> THE RESCUE ME SERIES FINALE IS ---> WEDNESDAY (9/7) RATHER THEN TUESDAY AS THE ARTICLE SUGGESTS. ALTHOUGH ALL PREVIOUS SEASONS OF RESCUE ME AIRED ON TUESDAYS THIS SEASON PLAYS ON WEDNESDAYS.. JUST WATED TO GIVE YOU GUYS A HEADS UP. THE ABOVE VIDEO ALSO REFERENCES WEDNESDAY AT THE END.. THANK YOU.
I liked the first year, but it went down hill after that. It had too much intensity for a multi year series. Also I could not relate to his bazaar exsistance. Do people from New York really live like that?
This magnificent show has done its best to show us what these men and women go through and have gone through. Too bad the powers-that-be, the Politicos of New York, have still not solved the problem that created so much of the devastation and death, both of which could have been solved, the problem being the RADIOS not synched between agencies, the RADIOS that can't allow real communication so that saving warnings could be issued. Think of it: lives could have been saved if only Giuliani had been on this problem and now, Bloomberg. They both cared and care only about real estate; too bad they did not think about the ordinary New Yorkers who put their feet on the street to do their jobs. And speaking of Real Estate, the good men of Port Authority begged in front of the 9slash11 Commission that stairwells in new buildings be constructed ala tree trunks - getting wider at the bottom in order to get more people out in time. Was this done? Ha! So thank you to "Rescue Me" for not being afraid to tell it like it is. (Just like the August 31 - Sept. 6, 2011 issue of the Village Voice.)
