Cameron Boone (Derek Luke), Nancy Carnahan (Anastasia Griffith), and Tyler Briggs (Kevin Rankin) are some of the paramedics working in San Francisco. It's one year after Reuben 'Rabbit' Palchuk (Cliff Curtis)'s air ambulance crashes into another helicopter causing seven deaths including Nancy's boyfriend Terry. The rule breaking Rabbit is allowed to come back to work with Marisa Benez (Aimee Garcia) as his new pilot. Nancy is partnered with hot newbie Glenn Morrison (Taylor Kinney). ER chief Dr. Joe Saviano (Jamey Sheridan) is frustrated at Nancy wasting her medical skills. Her father is a powerful surgeon at the hospital. Dr. Diana Van Dine (Scottie Thompson) is the new intern.
This is more action than the regular medical drama. It has a few big set pieces and is packed with big drama. The characters are generally interesting led by Rabbit. Nancy is good co-lead. Marisa reminds me of Aliens with her sunglasses in the helicopter. Glenn is hot but he's not that deep. Diana feels more like a secondary character. I have the most trouble with Cameron and Tyler. They spend way too much time with Cameron's homophobia and Tyler's sexual preference. It can fill one episode but if the problem continues, I'd expect them to find new partners. It's hitting the same note over and over again. Maybe they could make it funnier but it's never actually funny. In general, I like the show and the characters. It was cancelled after one season. Viewership was steady between 5-6 millions which was a little below the target.
