Lee (2222 KP) rated Station 19 - Season 1 in TV

Chicago Fire Wannabee
My wife and I are huge fans of Chicago Fire, so were keen to see whether another firefighter show could come close to that kind of quality. My wife is also a big fan of Grey's Anatomy, with Station 19 coming from the team responsible for that, so even more reason to give Station 19 a shot.

The season starts off badly though. Terrible acting, dodgy plot-lines, and no real likeable characters at all. You can't help but compare it to Chicago Fire, it's like they're just trying to emulate that buddy drama vibe Chicago Fire does so well. Hell, one of the Station 19 characters even looks exactly like a character from Chicago Fire!!

We stuck with it, and to be fair it did get better towards the end of its 10 episode run. The final episode featured a big 'Towering Inferno' style plot as numerous fire teams tackle a serious skyscraper fire, and the episode ended with at least 3 or 4 major cliffhangers. A very enjoyable episode and I'd certainly be prepared to give it a chance if it makes it to season 2.

Saw a live rendition of the musical “Chicago” in Nampa ID this weekend. It was awesome. I love my books and movies and shows but I miss the theatre!
