    I've seen the third series and it's well worth the wait.

    What series is that? I have only seen the first series and I loved it, but I can`t find the second series on anywhere and I don`t want to skip straight through to the third series. Great first series though!

    The third series is fantastic!

    Wwithout a doubt though, the best scene in Season 3 is still
    Garrity sleepwalking
    .. feckin hilarious!

    Excellent series tbh. Got into it in the states last summer.

    Was the season3 finale MAJOR
    denis learly in the burning house?

    I'm not up to date as to whats been shown on tv here and what I saw in the US.

    Funny I knew exactly what was behind that spoiler before reading it - brilliant scene!

    Really enjoyed the season. One of the best group of characters on a drama right now and just the right mix of humour and drama.

    I downloaded the 1st ep of season 1, a few months ago, and loved it, so after having watched it again yesterday (and some Denis Leary stand-up) I decided to get the box set :) €60 in HMV!!! :eek: So I decided to order it off the interweb ;) Play.com do it with free delivery for like €25, but don't deliver DVDs to Ireland, so on SendIt.com I got it for around €35. Still good value compared to retail.

    Now we play the waiting game......!!! :D

    Yes they do. You just need to convert the prices to Euro before buying...

    Hang on, is there some kind of mass practical joke going on in the TV forum?
    9/11 Rescue 9/11 Me 9/11 is surely the worst piece of televisual garbage ever to see the light of day, no?
    There can't actually be people who like it? Although if it's got as far as a third series...

    the first season of Rescue me was good, the second was some of the worst tv I have ever seen.

    Have you ever actually watched any of it ? I used to think the same thing before I sat down and actually seen a couple of episodes. The show is absolutely hilarious, and there's not nearly as many references to 9/11 as you might think.

    I'm looking forward to the new series on Sky.

    the name of the show put me off for ages, and indeed i unfairly gave it a good slating before even watching it.
    Its actually quite gritty and irreverant to the whole 'America's heroes' thing- actually surprisingly good viewing

    I watched the whole first series (I had no internet at the time and had run out of decent stuff to watch). It was brutal, though admittedly a damn sigh better than French *shudder* TV.

    I watched the whole first series and thought it was brilliant. Can't wait to get my hands on series two.

    Did anyone ever see The Job with Denis Leary?
    I love that show but they only made 19 episodes (have the DVD though :), actually mloc has it :(, sonofabitc...).

    I see Leary got his TV show with this and there's even a few of the same actors in it, I've been meaning to watch it.

    Well I haven't seen Rescue Me sooo... :p

    I found The Job pretty good for a laugh, I think Rescue Me is slightly more dramatic whereas The Job was just about Leary and his cop buddies in funny situations!

    There's one great character in it that doesn't get a line in the whole series, everytime they talk to him he's eating or interrupted, it's classic run on joke. :D
