Movie Reviews of Emergency! - Season Four
Movie Review: Emergency...Classic Disaster TV
Summary: 5 Stars
Of all the TV shows I watched as a kid, Emergency holds a special place in my TV memory banks. Disasters, accidents, mishaps, and the familiar 'Rampart 51' charactgerized the whole series for me. By the time season four aired, I had moved onto the Six Million Dollar Man, and beyond.
Watching the 21 episodes of this ground breaking series for the first time, I realized why I do not appreciate the graphic medical effects of todays' productions. The real stars of the show are not the special effects team, but rather Gage, DeSoto, Nurse McCall, and their developed skills. That is the way a show should be.
Build a following based on good scripts, a good cast, and competent set design. Season Four is perhaps the most polished of the series, with all cast members comfortable and adjusted to each others' idiosyncracies.
Sit down, plug it in, and get ready for 'Rampart 51'!

Movie Review: Wonderful: When can we expect Season 5.
Summary: 5 Stars
I truly loved this series. I was hooked on it when was 10 or 11.
I watched it back in 1978. I video taped a lot of my favorite ones when they were showing the series on our Channel 51 because they showed the scenes that TVLand didn't when TVLand showed it.
I was hooked on John Gage and more.
Thought Chet was funny at times on the show. But loved the rescues and more.
I am really wondering when Season 5 will be out now. So many episodes have not seen in a long time that were not ones I taped but the DVD's are nice to replace the video tape recordings did have.
But last couple years been right on cue for January release. I alwasy start thinking about this as a Christmas present Idea.
But I truly truly recommend this to Emergency Fans out there to collect
Movie Review: This is why I became a Paramedic.
Summary: 5 Stars
I remember watching this show back in the 70's and never missing an episode. While I had the worst crush on 'Johnny Gage', Roy was actually the medic I most wanted to be like. Dixie McCall was such a professional nurse. Always there for her patients. This show actually inspired me to go back to school and become an ED nurse and Paramedic. I loved the basis for the show and really appreciated how each episode had a message delivered without resorting to violence, sex or foul language. While EMS is not for everyone, this show really had something everyone could relate to. It not only delt with the professional lives, but the 'personal' lives of the characters as well. You felt like you were part of the shift each episode. And the patients had 'real' day to day situations which could happen to any of us. This is one series I can watch over and over.Movie Review: Emergency! - Season Four
Summary: 5 Stars
It was great being able to see these episodes again! There were some glitches in the video due to damaged originals so you know they didn't spend a lot of time fixing them but there were only a few seconds here and there. If it were a choice between damaged originals and perfect syndicated cuts, I'd much rather have the flawed originals. The episodes were great and was fun to see Johnny and Roy in action with a little humor from Chet. If you are a fan of the show, definitely get this. If you like a good drama show, this was one of the originals. Granted it was done in the 1970's but there is still enough drama to put you on the edge of your seat. I feel that even though this was filmed over 30 years ago, it is still a crowd pleaser.Movie Review: Excellent Show!
Summary: 5 Stars
This show was and is one of my favorites of all time, with the action and the characters all coming together to make for television at it's finest. This show really brought the essence of what the paramedic firefighter was all about in a time where the average public had no idea what the term meant. The stories were always well done and the cast from the hospital doctors to the firemen was top notch. If you were a fan of the show, then you know how great it was. If you weren't, sit back and enjoy one of the ground breaking shows that never pulled any punches.
