    There can be no good reason not to bring this show back. It was an instant classic, and if it got overshadowed by "reality" TV, then I thank God I got to see the few episodes that aired when it did. Oh, well, at least there's "House". BTW, "Rescue Me" does not hold a candle to "Saved".

    Tom Everett Scott makes it. It has lots of potential if they don't try too hard, and don't try to be "Rescue Me."

    I think this show has promise. I recently attended an EMS confernce, during which the show was bashed by several of the speakers - from the lack of legit tech advice (we dont' use paddles anymore) to the bad perception Wyatt gave viewers as a Paramedic. However, as the show progresses, you learn how much Wyatt loves what he does - which is somthing most of us can relate to.

    I sincerely hope this show will continue next season. It is compelling (does it really matter that it may not be medically accurate?). All episodes have been sensitive (the girl needing a transplant) and suspenseful and humorous. Love the actors - perfectly cast. Please let's keep it around.

    It will be a tradgedy if there is not a second season to air on TNT. I have been a medic for 3 years and lived in an EMS family all my life. We as a EMS community need a show to educate the public and be entertaining as well. It is my opinion that saved does this and more. Please run the second season and give it a chance before you kill the show!

    If you're looking for an over-dramatic ER-esque soap opera, stay away. If you're looking for a light drama that actually remembers its medical setting, this is for you. This show is a realistic look at the everyday life of a paramedic. The creative way they introduce victims sets "Saved" apart.

    Hey, I AM a paramedic...Scott nails the mindset of someone who "gambles" everyday by just being alive. Occupational hazard, I'm afraid. The plots are a little thin, but the characters more than make up for the occasional patient care faux pas. If all the medics were as cute as Scott, I never would have moved into ER nursing. Holy crap, he's hot!!!

    It's a fairly entertaining show right out of the gate, though it's distractingly busy with a gimmick: Poorly edited flashbacks pop up suddenly to show what victims were doing in the moments before they suffered health problems. This could be done well, but it's not now.
