Absolutely Fantastic

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Although today's television audience may find this show a little campy at times, it was very up-to-date and a real representation of emergency situations in the 1970's.
Today our ambulance drivers are the EMT's, but back then they were two seperate entities. This show was one of my very favorites as a child, and still is today. I own the entire DVD set and still watch EMERGENCY! regularly, as good TV shows like this have seemed to vanish to make way for "reality" garbage and foul-mouthed politician-haters.

Not able to watch it daily but still find it entertaining. As rough as some of the shows were, the show is credited for pushing Fire Based EMS - Paramedics throughout the United States. Was in Southern California last summer and made the stop to LA County FD Station 127 aka Station 51... the guys said they still get many tour requests. Was disappointed to see TV Land drop the show .... you can currently catch it on Cozi TV at Noon and 1300 hours.

Randolph Mantooth being have Seminole reminded me of my friend, Wayne B Urick, the Buncutter, in 1975 when we met him at USGS in Reston,Va. He was an exact identical to Mantooth, and acted exactly like him. That being said, we all watched the show from 72-79 and when the reruns came out recently on ME TV, my kids who are in their 30's are watching the show and are asking, "why aren't there shows like this on the air now?" Good question! Then we noticed that Mantooth later on was on a soap opera which my wife watched religiously because of him and his great acting skills. Very true that most people did not know the jargon concerning paramedics back in the mid 70's. I know because of my friends in the fire departments in Maryland that would all get together in the evening to watch the show together with their favorite beverages, etc. It's great to see this show back on the air now!

This show was a staple of my childhood and I find that I still connect to the humour and drama, even if the medicine is out-of-date. The characters were so well-developed that I still find myself hooked to their trials, tribulations, and triumphs. I've especially developed a great appreciation for the supporting actors, which I didn't take much notice of back when I was a kid.I regularly watch the episodes on VHS so I'm happy Universal is releasing them on DVD. Anyone know when Season 3 and beyond is due out? They seem to have stopped releasing them for some unknown reason, yet you can get "He Man" on DVD; go figure :)
