It would be great if "240-Robert" would soon be given the royal DVD treatment. Now that Season 1 and 2 of the show "Emergency" have been released, I think other rescue shows should get a chance too. "Code Red" comes to mind. I remember liking "240-Robert", but I know that I only caught a few episodes. Of course I was a kid back then so I was very impressionable. Anway, I'm sure I would still enjoy this show for at least nostalgic reasons.
I'd love to see 240-Robert again! It was a cool show.
There was another show that impressed me growing up. I don't remember the name, but it was a combo medical/police unit. It was a truck, light colored, the size of a fire truck. During a gang shoot out they drove over a victim, opened a panel from the underside and lifted the victim up into the truck. It was soooo cool. If you know the show, please let me know.
The title of the series was "True Blue". Much along the same style as "240-Robert", True Blue followed the exploits of the NYPD's Emergency Services Unit (ESU). ESU is also a real life police/rescue unit, w/ the exception that they work in an urban environment as opposed to the wilderness. The series ran back in 1989 on NBC.
shareI'd love to see that myself.
I've had a pain in the a$$ for the past 45 years! You got any soup for that?
I know how to get copies of the show on DVD. Email me if you want the info.
