Thumbs up "Rescue Me" on FX

Anyone here a fan of "Rescue Me" on FX?

This is my favorite show, and one of the best new shows on TV, so I decided to start a thread about it.

Season 3 began filming in February and should air this June.

The Season 2 DVD will be available May 2nd.

Susan Sarandon will be a guest star this season.

I also heard Marisa Tomei will be a guest too.

Im fully loving Rescue Me as well. I can do without the onslought of commericals though. Has anyone noticed ( without ever doing an actual count ) how MANY commercials RM has? It might just be my perception but it seems to be a lot more then usual..

Been watching it since the beginning and have all shows on disk from my panny e80h
plus bought season 1 and working on season 2.
Great show with some twists and turns and a lot of good characters all acted well.
Hope the quality keeps up and it lives for a long run.

I think that is what you get, when you are virtually the only "new" show on a network - The Shield suffers from the same problem. Does FX even have any other original programming? While I didn't watch it, I would be willing to bet that Over There had it's share of advertising also.

Oh yeah, I forgot - they had The Thief, or Heist, or whatever it was. Shield and Rescue Me are pretty good. Really haven't got hooked into anything else.

I thought The Shield had less commercials then most other shows I have watched. FX also has Nip/Tuck and the Riches as original programs. Artie Lange will be guest starring on this season of RM in seven episodes I think. I will be watching.

I'm also a big fan of Rescue Me. I Saw part of the first season in 2004 and somehow I got busy and lost interest and started watching every episode of Season 2 and 3. I can't wait until it comes on again. I finally have something to watch now!

Kind of weird how everything jumped ahead from last seasons ending, but a very good return episode. Looks to be another great season. Wish we could see this in HD, but at least it's shown in widescreen so you can zoom to fill your 16:9 screen.

As a long-time firefighter, I've got to say this show comes as close to life at the "house" as I've seen. Great show...

terrible picture

So you can get season 3 in HD glory. But watching the show last night was a fuzzy blurry mess. Granted, we only had a 32" standard def tv before, but man it looked bad. Only because we love the show was I able to deal with it.

The blu ray release makes it very tempting to skip it for now, and buy or rent it later.

Come on, Fox, get with the times.

Man I would hate to work at your firehouse. As one myself I would have to say that you are right and wrong. You don't see this kind of drama in a small city firehouse. Granted a big city like NY, Boston, Chicago, SF, they all have thier F uped situations. But not your normal 10 station department. I do love this show cause it is so out there and I can relate with some of the things that go on. FX needs to go HD allready...

I usually cap it to my Philips or Panasonic settop dvd recorders with hard drives and edit and watch later. Looks like another great season...
Going to have to get season 3 on dvd, missed the last episode even with all the gear

I couldn't find a more up to date thread for Rescue me so I posted here

but has anyone else notices the product placement that has went on the last few shows. They mentioned vitamin water about 5 times in a conversation about hockey

Then there is the Jetta which they basically recited the entire transcript from the VW commercials 3 times in 2 shows.

I don't have a problem with product placement, you know a "pass me a vitamin water", a "I'm going to get my daughter a Jetta because they are safe" or just having different products sitting out, but I think what they are starting to do is a little over the top
