Rescue Me: Juiced
(M4) “He’s got back acne on his goddamn ears!” - Tommy
Pretty good timing that that episode was scheduled to air the same night at the MLB mid-summer classic, huh? As unlucky as it is, you just can’t have a conversation about baseball anymore without bringing up the subject of steroids. T…

Light it up: FX gives OK to Rescue Me renewal

Rescue Me: Yaz (season finale)
”OK, so jet skis and neck vaginas? that is your view of a great Kevin Costner film?” - Tommy
Is that the end? I’ve only just started hearing approximately it. Unsubstantiated rumors, chit-chat on letter boards… but we may have just seen the final episode of Rescue Me. Period. The argument…
Rescue Me: Keefe
“Where’s Mark David Chapman when you need him?” - Tommy
One down and one to go. that season has gone by fast, huh? The horrible thing approximately it is that other than Jerry’s suicide, I don’t feel like all that much has happened. The stuff that has developed sort of just sputters along, …
Rescue Me: Cycle
(S04E11) “I’ve got eight Frescas in me Lou. I’m on a massive NutraSweet high. Don’t get me started.” - Tommy
Did I miss where the title of that episode was referenced? I’ve racked my brain, but for the life of me, I can’t figure out how the word “cycle” played into that episode. Doesn’t…
Rescue Me: High
“This guy ain’t no souse!” - Teddy
And thus deteriorated the first Gavin AA assembly. These citizens are nuts. Everyone drinks, no one can listen, they’re all stubborn, and none of them think that Sean is actually an alcoholic. I tend to agree. No one with a raging booze addiction thinks …
Rescue Me: Animal
(S04E09) “I mean… shit. We got abundant drunks in that room to start our own meetings.” - Maggie
Well I hope everyone else enjoyed that as much as I did considering that was by far the best episode of the season. At that point, it doesn’t seem like we’re going to get a huge story, other than El…
Rescue Me: Solo
“Yeah… let me, um, just put the axe away.” - Tommy
Well it’s about moment. that is the Rescue Me I remember. Granted, Tommy never got drunk, but there were moments where it certain felt like he was. From the fight with Janet, to the onslaught of all his ghosts at once, to running into th…
Rescue Me: Seven
”Balls to the wall gentlemen.” - Needles
Wow… that was some cold open, huh? Arguably the best the show has had yet. Barely any spoken words and set to some eerie song by who I think was The Twilight Singers. Babies being thrown out windows, bodies piled up on the sidewalk, and seven…
Rescue Me: Balance
(S04E06) “The hunt begins.” - Lou
There’s been a lot of talk about how that season of Rescue Me hasn’t been that good. society have been disappointed with the lack of continual plot, the way Tommy has evolved, and awful way they got rid of Jerry. It’s not that I disagree with everyone o…
Rescue Me: Black
() “Wow… looks like the bottom of my Dustbuster.” - Sean
Well there you go. Leary and Tolan still have plenty hidden up their sleeves. After last week’s extremely sub-par episode, we came back with that one. That was one hell of an opening, huh? From Janet forgetting the baby in the parking lot…
Rescue Me: Pussified
(S04E04) “Next duration I’m on the can and I want a drink, I don’t want to have to reach back and come up empty!” - Maggie
I think that may have been the first episode in the history of Rescue Me where the cold open didn’t have one moment that made you laugh, smile, or chuckle. How coul…
