Saved

I have seen many doctor/ER type shows on TV and none of them compare. Most shows take reality and tweak it a bit in order to satisfy the target audience. "Saved" is a work of genius. As a mobile EMT myself, I can relate to MANY things I see in nearly every episode. There is very little artistic license taken. Each of the characters in the series develops his or her own unique personality which can be easily picked up on. The series also contains a web of relationships which is built upon from episode to episode. This alone shows the time and thought that went into writing such a series. The series also properly portrays the stress inherit in the work of an EMT and Paramedic. All in all, "Saved" is a terrific must see series.

I am among many who cannot believe the series Saved is not being brought back! This show was so addictive, I never missed an episode and when I was stuck working, I made my husband tape it, he is an EMT and loved the show as well. Most of the people he works with were also watching it or were starting to because they were always discussing the show at work, and now this! I am not going to watch or promote to co-workers, family, or anyone any more shows on TNT, because if I like it, they will surely cancel it! This was a great show, and if it comes out on DVD, I would definitely recommend getting it. And if another network is wise enough to pick it up, WATCH IT!!!!

This person who left the comment before me is an idiot. Obviously you don't have any experience as an E.M.T. or any Emergency Services! Sometimes you have break the rules to save a life asshole...this show is great and does a good job of portraying the stress that the Paramedics have to deal with both on and off duty. The acting is great and each episode makes you want to watch it again. ...still not as good as FX's Rescue Me but is still a great show. There are few rescue shows that can be taken seriously, but this is surely one that can be. There are a number of police shows on the air and now there is Rescue Me for firefighters. It is about time someone created one of us Ambulance workers! Ignore the guy who posted before me...he doesn't know what hes talking about...

This TV is excellent. Viewers make think this is similar to "Rescue Me" but it's not. "Rescue Me" has vulgar language and is not appropriate for all viewers. Granted there are going to be a few people who say this show is just a Rescue Me RIPOFF. It is similar considering they both deal with emergency situations, but the situations are totally different, one situation deals with fires and the other deals with medical emergencies. Although there is blood and other medical problems that may not be suited for those with extremely weak stomachs, although blood is almost normal for most television shows now. If you are looking for an excellent television show that is mostly clean and hardly no vulgar language, this is the show for you. This show and House, MD.

Tom Everett Scott is the heart & soul of 'Saved'. He makes this show work. Yes, the rest of the cast was thoughtfully-chosen and they interact wonderfully. However, if T.E. Scott was not the lead character I wouldn't be watching, and I don't believe I'm in the minority. He has that thing you can't turn away from or ignore. Rita Wilson saw it, bless her heart, and because of her he was cast in Tom Hanks, "That Thing You Do." The choice of music is smart and a breathe of fresh air as well. Even Wyatt's t-shirts make a difference. Can't wait till they release the DVD, I want it. 'Saved' is the best show on cable right now, don't miss it!! Oh, and for the record, I work for 2 doctors, both my brothers are doctors and I was set to marry one, but didn't (thank goodness).
