People repeat themselves
So we were noodling along trying to pick something to watch on Demand when most of the TV had reruns. Demand and Net Flicks lets you pick new stuff to enjoy instead of being stuck watching the same old shit.
We found this show from the USA network called "Sirens." It is made by that asshole Dennis Leary who also made "Rescue Me" the show about fireman that ran for years on FX. It is pretty much the same set up. Fast talking city workers with morbid senses of humor and non politically correct speech dealing with the public. It is the fireman show without the fires. Instead they are paramedics who get strange patients. You guys who cut off their fingers that they steal to impress a girl or Mo's who get a plastic bottle stuck up their butt. It is entertaining if derivative. Worth a look see if you liked "Rescue Me."
The one thing is that one of the paramedics looks just like Eddie Munster. It is freaking weird.

Well, except for the names and a few other changes...the story's the same one.
I was hoping it'd be about beautiful women who sang men to their deaths.
What? We've never had that.
What I am trying to convey is that Leary is repeating himself. The humor and situations are right out of the "Rescue Me" playbook.
