I watched it and enjoyed it. I'm just a cop so I don't know how "made for TV" it is or isn't, but I will continue to watch it.

When my wife squeezed my hand tight when they were evacuating the 18D I knew it was a great show. It's not made to show off, it's made to inform the people about what the PJs are doing and I really enjoyed it.

Only caught the second half but thought it was good.
The ODA sending off their wounded medic was tough to watch. Same with him asking for pain killers.
I'm sure there was a good reason for them not giving him something but it was hard to hear him continually asking. It was amazing how collected he seemed.
Sure looked like a damn tough job.

Wow, that was a little tough to watch. But it just fills my heart knowing that there are those people that run to the sound of chaos and confusion to aid others.
I sure hope there is a special place in heaven for those PJs!
I will say a prayer tonight for the SF Medics, PJs and others that work within that golden hour!!!
