Under Fire

I am a Big Fan of 911/911 Lone Star,so i use them as Measurement, but i think this Show holds his Ground.

It is relateable,the Stories inside are interesting,the Emergencies are maybe not sooo dramatic but not unrealistic and way better than other 911-Clone Shows.

The Stories are not stretched over 39 episodes,hihihi.

I like the Cast,they look ordinary which fits to the more-real-feel.

Its true this Show probably doesn´t had Big-Budget,but isn´t low-budget,either. There is no big CGI-Effects,or special filters for the Camera,still it looks good,sounds goods,more real.

I did enjoy it and recommend it.

Loved the interventions, the actors and the shots. Nicely filmed and great atmosphere. For a Flemish series absolutely something innovative and worth the watch!

Almost Identical casting To Chicago Fire, the friendships, personalities, issues with a corrupt and dishonest Administrator, etc.

The voice overs are not great, tone/words, wrong.

Lots of obvious lazy fire/health mistakes too. For instance, a firefighter tries to take a bloody knife away from someone and gets jabbed. No mention of going to hospital to get checked out for tetanus or other possible diseases?

The rescue by a fireman that was deadly would never have happened. Never.

Get better writers and stop copying American shows. We crave the uniqueness of EU programs!

600 words is absurd!! It used to be less what gives?

I found it moderately entertaining. Some actors were good. There were a lot of plot holes, loads in fact, but it wasn't intended as a documentary. The music though. The music throughout each episode was terrible. The guitar was awful. There were drums on occasion too. It sounded like the musicians were making it up on the spot as they watched the show.

I watched all ten episodes, so it can't have been that bad...except for the music.

I don't know where to start... this is the most amateuristic fire brigade there has ever been. They don't know what way to drive to the building on fire, they find there is a colleague missing only after they are sitting in the fire engine, there is no coordination between police, ambulance and the fire brigade, the police are blocking the street entrance with their car, they continue to use water after they found out they are in a drughouse (like they don't know mixing chemicals with water can cause major explosions), one fireman chases a victim - leaving his colleagues behind, their commanding officer has to ask for an update every 10 seconds, they have to ask their colleague to spray water all the time, they are at a loss to do with a victim, they panic...

I really don't know why people are okay with portraying this service in a way that makes them look like clowns. Fire men and women are highly skilled professionals, working in an environment that depends on good communication, anticipation and confidence in acting. People are extremely well trained. You hardly ever hear about mistakes made by these experts.

So for me, after watching how they handled the first fire, it was exit with this program. What a joke. If I was working in this area, I would consider suing this show for defamation.
