One of my most memorable moments was watching the 1st scene of the 1st episode of Rescue Me. In the episode - Dennis Leary, playing a seasoned NYC firefighter, spoke to a soon-to-be graduating class of rookie firemen. He spoke of the firemen who gave their lives on 9-11 and he told those rookies that they'd be lucky if they could fill those kind of boots. For some reason, that always stuck with me-so I tried to get more info on why Leary came up with Rescue Me, since he was a comedian. His private life inner circle were firefighters, and he used their stories for Rescue Me. This season looks pretty good, so catch it if you can...rent the DVDs if you need the backstory. I like funny, interesting, and complex. Chances are, if you really enjoy My Two Dads, you won't like Rescue Me, so stick with what you like.
