This show had some cutting edge stuff to it, very funny with classic characters. I think as long as all of us remember it is only a TV show, not 100% real it will go down as one of the better attempts to depict the world of Firefighters. Denis Lea...

When did staying out of the toxic smoke & wearing correct PPE go by the wayside? They look like a THIRD WORLD Fire Dept! Both GFD vidoes show one guy in dark blue coveralls & longer hair busting his butt all over the scene, he did more than half t...

Hey,, how about mixing in some bunker gear & SCBA while on scene? Unless the budget has been really chopped can someone explain what we are seeing in this video? They are lucky no one was killed.

Spent the day at a house fire. First due crews couldn't access the scene because of deep snow on the long roadway into the house.Needless to say, things didn't turn out well. Did fire watch for 7 hours, finally shuttled water from our tanker via the Bush Buggy to the scene to extinguish hot spots. 200 gallons doesn't last very long....
