911 Crisis Center

I was excited for this show be Asmus I really like Emergency Call on abc but somehow it's a lot less interesting to me. I don't know if it's the calls or the dispatchers but it's just not as good and seems forced.

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!

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.

I don't understand, is this show trying to mock legit 911 operators? LOL, I had to turn it off half way through the pilot.

So glad I don't live in that area of Ohio.

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.
