New York firefighter Tommy Gavin is a hot mess. He talks to his cousin, Jimmy, who died at the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001, and he's seeing ghosts of other victims, too. Spotlighting Denis Leary as Gavin, a temperamental alcoholic whose self-destructive behavior has cost him his family, the series revolves around the daily drama associated with being a firefighter in post-9/11 New York, and how the men of 62 Truck use dark humor to color their true feelings.

Margaret Lyons New York Magazine/Vulture On and on and on with the same old Tommy/Janet/Sheila stuff, as if Tommy is some great catch? Two-and-a-half fantastic seasons; seven seasons total. Dec 12, 2018 Full Review Tim Goodman The Hollywood Reporter You can squander years of excellent work and hours of magnificent television by losing your creative touch or staying around too long... The final episode of Rescue Me proved all of that definitively. Dec 12, 2018 Full Review Aaron Riccio Slant Magazine This final season is about as useful as a lighter in a vacuum: Forget fresh air, there's no air left on which to cast a spark. Rated: 1/4 Jul 13, 2011 Full Review Christopher Lawrence Las Vegas Review-Journal They say all's well that ends well. The Rescue Me gang should take comfort in that. Dec 12, 2018 Full Review Laura Hurley CinemaBlend The relevance that had made the show so enjoyable early on was absent for most of the episodes, and Rescue Me fizzled out well before the end. Dec 12, 2018 Full Review Kelly West CinemaBlend Rescue Me has had its ups and downs, just as Tommy Gavin has, but Season 7 delivers the goods. Dec 12, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
