I was going through the TV networks I get from Cox Cable and found the METV (Memorable Entertainment TV) It's on channel 129 on Cox Cable and to be honest, I'm not sure if this is a national network or not, but I think so.
But the reason why I like it is because it shows my favorite TV show while growing up- Emergency!. It's a show based on the fictitious lives of some Los Angeles County firefighters. The show ran from 1972-1977, usually on Saturday nights. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency!
I remember watching the show and was amazed at all the calls the firefighters went on and marveled at the medical technology.
Now, when I watch the show, I can see that show was not all that realistic, though I still enjoy seeing the old cars, cheap gas, nurses in white uniforms and caps, the lack of first quality as we see now. The show did inspire me to become a volunteer firefighter and EMT.
But to me, it's still a great show to watch, especially since I have not seen the show in a couple of decades.
So, I am glad METV brought back the show and many other shows you just don't see anymore.
The Las Vegas Badger is about politics, humor, sports, reality shows in Las Vegas, especially Pawn Stars and anything else interesting. While I live in Las Vegas, my heart is still in Wisconsin. Thanks for visiting the blog and feel free to browse the web site.
ME_TV is carried by affiliates across the country, and demand is growing everyday. Watching it is like being a kid home from school watching the syndicated reruns you knew best!
ReplyDeleteBetter still, they air the credits at full screen, no squeezed images there! That's something I haven't seen on TV in 20 years!
Loved "Emergency"! I had the biggest crush on Randolph Mantooth! I still have a special place in my heart for firefighters and paramedics/EMTs. I learned alot about their world from that show.
