911 Crisis Center

This new series approaches crime and emergencies from the viewpoint of the people working in a 911 crisis center. In the first episode we meet several of the dispatchers and see them dealing with difficult situations. It's easy to like these people, and we do find ourselves getting involved in the problems they are dealing with as they take calls. This different approach to storytelling is refreshing. I look forward to seeing more series episodes.

Don't waste your time. It's just like the 1000's of work place shows where many situations are staged, the people profiled on the show are extremely aware of the cameras on them, and they act like they aren't aware, then say or do something to make sure they get on the show. You can feel the forced drama to the point you just need to switch it off. The show is for the reality show simpleminded set and it brings absolutely nothing to what the true reality of what a 911 call center is .

Utter garbage.

Not a fan of this series. I watched several episodes of the first season. But began changing the channel whether it was on. The operators seem to put on a phony presence of added drama for the camera's. They do not appear completely genuine. Their side chatter and reactions they have about some callers is often unprofessional & better to be left behind closed doors rather than out in the public eye. They should be ashamed to let the public see and hear how they make fun of callers. I enjoy watching the Oxygen channel but become very disappointed when I see it on the schedule and change the channel immediately.

The show features an actual 911 call center and the employees working there. The characters are genuine and adds to likeability. Each episode involves a small time period, like a holiday weekend or the happenings around a full moon. Calls range from ridiculous, not 911 worthy, to serious car accidents,and shoot outs. When calls come in, it reveals how things come together, with the start of the phone call. The small group of employees in the room work together to quickly get needed information, ascertain the services needed and provide support as needed. A true, UNSCRIPTED, reality show, exposes raw emotions in real time. It is a very interesting look into emergencies.

This series shows how dispatchers work to help others daily through calls while also highlighting how the workers depend on eachother to get through tough calls, as they are also humans and some of the situations they have to deal with are traumatic. This shows a real life experience in the dispatch center, how workers help others and eachother. Love it! If you ever worked dispatch or triage you will instantly connect on this show, the need for the silliness inbetween calls to keep eachother on point is so true!
