Rescue Me: What the [censored] Happened to this Show?
Am I alone in being completely disappointed with the show this season? Next week is the Season Finale and there is nothing that needs to be resolved, no cliffhanger, nothing. I mean it is Rescue Me, so someone could always get trapped in a fire as the season ends, but who cares?
Lou: I am getting very tired of Lou's sexcapades. The nun, now this fat black chick Latrina with the whole food thing. It's completely tired and has been done about 10 times with him. Sean: So tonight's episode he banged some chick. So he's over his marriage? He's pretending to be an alcoholic. I care, why? Franco: His relationship crumbled way too fast, then the girl is dating someone, then she's headed to Chicago. Then she wants him to take care of her retarded brother? He doesn't even see his daughter, but he'll do this? Sheila/Wife/Baby: He sold the baby to Sheila. Then the wife got it back. But he kept the money. Now the wife has a job and is dating some guy that is supposed to be intimidating to Tommy but isn't hot and zzzzzzzzzzzzz. Older daughter: Wow, dating the rock singer didn't work out. Pisses me off how he is just like, "here's a car, here's this", etc. You knew exactly where this was going, it went there, and provided nothing along the way. I honestly cannot think of one interesting storyline that is leaving me wondering how it will resolve. The show went from my favorite current TV show, up there all-time, to subpar over the course of half a season. Is everyone else still enjoying the show as usual, or is this pretty much how everyone feels? |

Re: Rescue Me: What the [censored] Happened to this Show?
I'm sort of in the same boat as you, but I have been going out every Wednesday this summer so I have to watch it either on Friday or Sunday. I have missed a couple episodes, but I don't think they were very important. I did think the shows that involved the Chief were very good, but other than that, it has been very subpar. It used to be a huge deal if I missed a show, but now it doesn't seem like that big a deal. It's really hard to top the story lines and outrageousness of the past seasons. (I missed tonight's episode)

Re: Rescue Me: What the [censored] Happened to this Show?
I didn't read the OP or responses, just the subject line, because eventually I plan on getting around to watching the last 5 episodes that I have sitting on my DVR. But yes, this used to be a show that I couldn't wait for Wednesdays for, but this season has been so bad that I was considering making a post asking if it's worth it to finish it up.

So true. The first season was great, the second was OK, and now it's just ridiculous. Self-parody at this point.
Still, it's a great intro song. |

Re: Rescue Me: What the [censored] Happened to this Show?
I thought the third season was also good. It's always had a perfect mix of comedy and drama, but this season I can't think of any instances of either (although I've only seen the first half), just situations that are so ridiculous I can't tell if it was supposed to be funny or serious. Character development sucks too, I never could figure out if that one Tommy stalker Sheila was dating was obsessed or jealous.

Yeah, by far the worst season.... I thought it was cause I had such high expectations going in... but I guess not.
God does anyone ooooooze sex more than Gina Gershon though. Holy [censored] do I wanna [censored] the living [censored] out of her. She's not beautiful, but sex appeal she has in spades. |

[/ QUOTE ] yeah she is unbelievably sexy, but her character is annoying. Oh, another female character that is smoking hot, obsessed with Tommy, has some weird sex thing, and acts all in control. Isn't this just a hotter redo of the volunteer firefighter lady? and that was this season! ughh.... |

Re: Rescue Me: What the [censored] Happened to this Show?
Agree with OP that this is a serious WTF season. I just caught up to season 12 online.
What is the deal with Tommy sneaking into buildings on fire and rescuing people, then scurrying away unseen? I must have missed something. And at what point did Tommy go from a tough guy to a complete doormat? |
