If Dennis Leary is involved...I doubt it lol

Unless they use gallows humor that makes every lay person cringe while every person in the field laugh, they have failed at their task.

The books it's based on, however, are awesome and a good read.

I've seen the UK version that its based on and I don't know how well it will translate.

It got a subtle dry misanthropic British humour going on. People aren't that hot.

Ok if they had a show like that in the US i would totally watch it.

That was awesome.! And you can't have Rabbit, cuz he is MINE! MINE! MINE!

That sirens show does look funny. Idk how well of a twist Leary can throw on that. I didn't like rescue me. Hopefully it's going to be good though. At least hold water to trauma.
