I am currently a firefighter and I really like this show. It is fiction, not meant to be real, meant to tell a story and that is exactly what the show does.
The new show has a diverse cast and broad scope of talent and I feel that while it js dealing with OD, LGBTQ, and cancer the show deals with everyday issues that we face today.
I like it and I hope to see the series last a long time. Five stars from me.
