I guess this show was a major factor in my becoming a vol. firefighter & EMT-CC.
It was the only show that I would get upset about if I missed it.
I even remember part of the introduction: "Rescue 8, one of the 27 such teams attached to the LA County Fire Department".
Many people familiar with Emergency! don't believe this actually was it's predecessor. I still contend Rescue 8 was much more realistic than any Rescue 8 or Squad 51 shows.
I sure do miss it. :(
I've been searching the internet, albeit in vain, for actual videos from the show. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd sure appreciate it.
