Rescue me is like one of the coolest shows that I have ever seen on television, and I am sure that a lot of people do not even know that it exists.  Here is the synopsis:  Rescue Me is a dramedy that centers on the inner workings of Engine 62, a New York City firehouse, and the personal and emotional battles of its members in a post-9/11 world. The show focuses on Tommy Gavin (Denis Leary), the senior firefighter whose life is in turmoil as he copes with the stresses and fears of his job as well the separation of him and his wife.  This show is very serious, and yet there is a comedic undertone that makes it one of the greatest shows that is on television.  Rescue Me airs on FX on Wednesday nights at 10:00 pm, but I would highly recommend buying or renting the first two seasons before indulging yourself in the middle of season 3.  I even have half of my family addicted to this show now, because I make them watch one episode and they get hooked!
