RESCUE ME 6/13

Surprised there's no thread yet.

Gotta love the way Tommy's fucking with Sean -- and then Franco gets into the act as well. Classic. And the whole bit with the horse was great, too.

I gotta tell you, though, the thing that's bugging me is the slow fall of Lou -- sad to see him sinking to Tommy levels. Bummin' me out.

... and Probie's gay!?!?!

 

yet again, i finished teh show wanting more... what a great fuckin's how. the first three episodes of this season have been just awesome

can't say i was shocked about probie. helps the character, i think

and jesus, i nearly cried from laughing so hard with the horse bit -- and i felt bad about it, but was still laughing

 

I wanna know where I can find a teacher like the lovely Miss Turbody: "You're gonna have to raise your game. Your nephew could go three, four times in an hour."

 

Is Miss Turboty the O Girl?

 

Don't know, but I laughed my ass off when Tommy... let's say, "finished his exam early."

"I think I'm going to need a minute... and a sandwich, uh... Mrs. Turbody."

 

"When you're banging her ... does her walker get in the way?"

Yeah, he's sliding downhill fast, but Lou can still deliver the shots.

I don't know that there is another show as entertaining as this one on TV right now. The humor, the drama, the character interaction -- it's all simply top-notch. If it manages to stay anywhere near this level for the rest of the season, I'd call it an Emmy winner. Easy.

Tommy's screwing around with Sean is classic. And Sean's dumbass responses are equally fantastic. The whole "forte" thing had me rolling. "So, I could say I was a forte free safety?"

And the Ms. Turbody thing ... the way Tommy can never say her name with sort of stuttering. "uh, Ms. T-Turbody."

 

Another great line, from Franco, telling Tommy about some girl he screwed the night before:
"She was all right. I call chicks like that firecrackers. You know, good for one bang."

 

I've missed the past two episodes, so at this point I might just wait until the re-runs start before picking it up again. It'll be torture, but I don't want to jump back in after missing two in a row.

And it is the best show on TV.

 

I'm never home when it's on and I've never watched it. There are a lot of classic shows where I just don't see what everyone else does. Everytime I see an ad for the show, Denis Leary is picking a fight with somebody. I guess there's more to the show than that, but I'm not sure what it is.

 

miss turbody is the lovely paige turco, i believe. once a "ninja turtles" movie chick. yum-yum 8) 8)

with three sons, i had to watch that movie many times. thank heaven for paige!!!! ;D ;D

 

Roscoe, there's many a place on the Internet where you can download episodes from current TV shows. Probably take you a couple of hours if you've got a decent high-speed connection. Then you can either watch 'em on the monitor or burn 'em to a DVD.

Smalltater: Watch one episode of "Rescue Me" and I'm betting you'll watch all that you've missed.
