“Emergency” is one of the very FEW successful TV Shows that ALL Character(in real life) developed Life-Long Friendships. Also All of the main characters were US Military Vets(minus Randoph Mantooth).

I’d like “Gran Torino” to be made over with Clint coming out with an M-60 and shooting up the whole two blocks, east and west. Then he says, “ Get off my ass.”

One show I DO NOT want to see re-made is the Brady Bunch. My older sister loved watching that crap and made me watch it too we were growing up. EGADS! One of the worst shows ever. And don’t get me started on “A Very Brady Christmas.”

I quit playing this game when they destroyed Hawaii Five-O, one of my all-time favorites.

Randolph Mantooth and Kevin Tighe couldn't get gigs for a couple of years after 'Emergency!' ended, because agents thought they were actually paramedics, not actors.

I just remember the schoolboy crush I had on Nurse Dixie.

It kind of helps if they were already married to each other (Bobby Troup and Julie London)

Only bad ones. Remakes of good stuff always turn out bad, but remakes of bad stuff often turn out better.

Robert Reed was reportedly in full agreement with you.

The problem with a reboot of Emergency! is that they would make the entire station homos and women. The only white males would be the crack dealers that start baby toy factories on fire
