Yes another fine show about a Paramedic.

It has:

Super Hero rescues.

Disregard for scene safety.

Unlawful entry of a personal residence as well as many other privately owned properties that are closed as crime scenes.

Lying on official reports and to official investigators.

Interfering with police investigations.

Contaminating crime scenes and then telling the detective to lie about it.

wait....you mean all that stuff doesn't happen on a regular basis....i quit. lol.
 
I almost forgot the part where IFTs are a punishment for those that can not pass their cert evalulation and must be reduced to taxi drivers.
 
Ummm, I watched it and lost interest in 5 minutes. Doubt it will be back next year...Actually had no clue it was even on. Oh well.
 
Now we all know what the police feel like with all these cop shows on the air.
 
Someone sent me a link to this a couple of days ago, I haven't watched it, but I looked up some info on it.

The lead character can read peoples thoughts, so I'm guessing this is supposed to be more of a supernatural guy-goes-above-and-beyond-to-save-the-world type show rather than any sort of accurate representation of the profession.
 
"When God hooks you up with free cable... you gotta think he expects you to do a little surfing."

LOLZ. How deep.
 
My mom called me into her room the other night and was like OMG this guy's an EMT!!! xD
 
I wiki'ed it and apparently its on in Canada. leave it to the Canadians to insult the profession.

Though "trauma" doesnt make it look any better in america!

The only believable part was that he could hear people's thoughts.

What about when they dove into the tipped over car without securing it. Then got stuck.

Yeah but he's Telepathic... that makes him right all the time.
 
EMS, 911, EMERGENCY...riiighttt

It actually hurts to watch.

I couldn't even finish watching it.
 
Easy to point out the flaws in the show, and I must admit it's not my thing, but I must play devils advocate here. How many people would really watch a show about the stuff we actually do?

Probably just those who want to train at a medic mill for an exciting career playing with the lights and sirens and score with pretty doctors or nurses.
