    So this marks the sixth season in which I’ll say:

    “That Rescue Me looks really good. I like Denis Leary. I really should get around to watching it…why haven’t I watched it yet again?”

    Absolutely love Rescue Me and i’m dying without it for the last 17 months. But I will be rewarded with 22 weeks in a row of new shows starting in April and now another season after this one on the horizon. Great stories, great acting, funny, sad, serious and everything you want from a show.

    Good news…I think. Season 5 was bad, but I have been enjoying the little mini-episodes they posted on Hulu.
