I watched seasons 1 and 2 then got distracted for a few years

Watched seasons 3 and 4 on Netflix over the past few weeks and now I'm on to season 5 Vol 1.

I really like this show. It might be because it reminds me of the Sopranos so much or that I love Denis Leary but I really like this show.

This is the first show I have watch on DVD since seasons 1-3 of The Wire that have kept me up late.

If you havent had a chance to take it in you can stream seasons 1-5 on Netflix

I enjoy it too. I just hope the new season (starts 6/29) is better than last.

I love that show. Probably my favorite show airing new episodes.

it lost me when it became a full on soap opera (around the time johnny was sleeping with tommy's ex). it just got more and more outrageous and didn't feel realistic at all.

that said, the show is almost worth watching simply for the firehouse scenes. I wish the show focused a lot more on how those guys interact with each other.

The firehouse scenes and how the boys interact with each other could have been shot with a hand held camera and just given to the producers. They are spot on.
One of my favorites is the sensitivity training scene. I've sat in on one like that.

I thought season 5 was going well (much better than 4), and then it completely re-jumped the shark.

That being said, I am excited for next week.. I've always loved the show. I really don't know if there has been a show as good as Rescue Me Seasons 1 and 2 were.

How many episodes are per season? I've always wanted to get into this show but time is an issue.

I love the show and writing as well but it's not up to the level of "greates tv ever"... still very good and much more enjoyable than the mess that gets thrown out there for consumption 90% of the time.

I'm really hoping this season is greatness... hearing good things about Louie too

Agreed. That's the only reason I still give it a try from time to time. The first two seasons were great. It's been hit and miss since, mostly miss.

I agree that it has been hit and miss, but when it's "hit", i's as good as any show that's been out in a while. Lou is probably my favorite TV character since Norm.

And Garrity's stupidity is always good for a few laughs.

Last season picked up, the one before was pretty weak with all those crazy Garrity dreams.

I had forgotten about the dreams. At the time I was ready for them to drop the dream thing... Looking back, I think it was a funny idea .

Agree about Lou. Guy is nails. And Mike's hilarity/gayness is about on par with Sean's, which is great. and i have to admit that the introduction of Black Shawn has been good for some awesome hilarity as well.

Can't wait for it to come back.

I am a huge fan. Everything from the intense schizophrenic episodes to the badass music

So ah, did anyone watch last night? I thought it was alright. The girl who's name I can never remember still pulls off the bat **** crazy role perfectly.

Sheila might be my least favorite character in TV history.
Ag20??

In terms of acting or in terms of being a *****?

There's a LOT more characters in TV history I'd like to throw over a cliff long before Sheila.

It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. I get no pleasure watching it, but can't turn away.
