Posted on Sep 11, 2010

While the subject matter is heavy, Rescue Me is seldom heavy-going. It still makes times to revel in the boisterous camaraderie of its firefighters, and it still takes great advantage of one of the se... Read More

David Hinckley's review of Rescue Me for New York Daily News

Alan Sepinwall's review of Rescue Me for Newark Star-Ledger

Posted on Sep 11, 2010

Ellen Gray's review of Rescue Me for Philadelphia Daily News

Posted on Sep 11, 2010
