Wonderful character development!

Purely Joyful Movie!

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Emergency! is a rather quirky show, it seems almost devoid of lame, syrupy soap opera style plots you see on modern hospital and rescue shows. People aren't sleeping with each others wives and husbands, there is no quiet introspection by characters, and it is free from the general emotional malaise you see on shows now.Just the facts, you see the process of a rescue, the interactions, the diagnosis, the risk taking and everybody acts professional. I guess back in those days they cared about you and didn't ask for a $100 co-payment while you are on the stretcher! It is quite an intriguing show and it is glued together with just enough human interaction to form elegant and watchable episodes. The situations sometimes are humorous and sometimes head scratching, but isn't that life? You would think the process of alarm-driving-rescue-hospital-ending would get monotonous, but each episode is unique, and you gotta admit the fire rescue stuff looks fun. Sure its dangerous but you get a lot of toys to play with, you help people, and people respected you in return.The show falls somewhere in between a drama and reality TV.

I'm trying to find out what episodes these three particular scenes were in. They were in NBC's original airing and also when TV Land was airing the reruns. I asked Universal and they said they need to know what the names of the episodes were before they can help me find out why they weren't included in any of the season 1-6 DVD sets. I don't have access to that info. TV Land said they don't have access to that info either. Does anyone out there have an answer for me? The scenes are:Johnny continues to have his knee go out on him then gets told he will have to have surgery to repair his knee or he will lose the use of it.Roy has to perform a tracheotomy in the field.While Roy is at the hospital with a patient, Johnny gets hurt and goes into cardiac arrest while being transported to the hospital on top of the engine. Roy and Dr. Bracket have to stabilize him on top of the engine before the can bring him into the hospital.

For those who have Netflix, let them be aware that they can download instant watching of all seven years of Emergency! Not all episodes can be watched instantly, some have to come in the form of a DVD, but most of the episodes can be watched instantly at least as many times as their particular plan allows.I am a big fan of Emergency! It is nice to watch a show where I agree with almost everything that they are doing and saying. I guess that probably dates me, but I don't really care. What I do care about is the fact that this was, and is in my opinion still a great show that anyone can watch or purchase online as well.Hopefully there will be others out there along with me who would like to see an updated form of Emergency! on television right now without all of the violence, swearing, sexual content and car scenes that were not needed to make Emergency! a great show! They did have their fair share of explosions and fire which was okay. Firefighters have to deal with fire and explosion and a series dealing with firefighters that didn't encounter those two elements would be suspect.And since Emergency! can be found Online for both watching and purchasing, and can be found on NBC as stated as well as Netflix, I would think it could be found other places as well.If you like Emergency! as well as I than perhaps we will have a bit of the 70s back into our lives on a regular basis or a new version of the same show updated.
