Well, I can't really say these are my favourite, but they're the ones I vaguely remember.
A kid gets his tongue stuck in a canteen?
A kid slices his arms open running through a glass door and t-shirts are tied around them?
A dalmatian gets stuck in a well or someting?
Anyone remember these episodes or recall others that you liked?
Random, I know, but I'm feeling a little nostalgic.
Ew I feel like Nadia.
But um I remember this baby falling through a glass window/door and her intestines like spilling out or something.
And... I remember the dalmation one. The animal ones were stupid. No one cares about animals...

I really didn't have any favorites. I just liked to watch it. but heres some episodes I remember.
The one where students are helping their science teacher move into a new science lab and they play in the sink throwing water everywhere and then some accidently gets thrown in a glass that has some kinds of chemicals or something which causes to fizz up bad likes it gonna blow and then the teacher grabs it to get it out of the school before it blows and right when he gets to the main doors it explodes right in his face.
another where a cop sees a van going really fast down the road and swerveing back and fourth and when he pulls it over he can't see in the windows cause there tinted. the cop thought it was a drunk driver. but when the door opens it turns out to be a woman going into labor, she was trying to drive herself to the hospital because there was no one around to drive her.
another where a cop helps a woman get her car off the railroad track right at the last mintue.
another where a parrot saves its owners from a gas leak.
the one where a thief breaks into some kind store through a glass door with a crowbar. when he starts to leave the place he notices sharp pieces of glass sticking out the way he came in and he left his crowbar on the other side that he couldn't get to and he calls for help and decides to turn himself in.
"a kid slices his arms open running through a glass door and t-shirts are tied around them?"
that's my most vivid memory of this show. i also remember an episode where this woman and her little boy are at home alone, and her ex husband or ex boyfriend shows up. the little boy is coloring, and the mother asks him if she can color some (while kinda ignoring the ex husband) and she writes "call 911" in the coloring book with the crayon. the little boy leaves the room and eventually does call 911, but unfortunately by the time this happens he's describing to the operator how his father(?) stabbed his mother and how bad the situation is. that episode was pretty scary.
I just remember one story from the show that has always stuck out in my mind.
A mom in on the lawnmower in the front yard, and a kid runs out to tell her something. The mom doesn't see the kid, and when the boy trips, it becomes a lawncare misadventure. The mom runs over both of his legs, if I can remember correctly. Memorable stuff, right there.
I think if the show was tweaked a little, it could still be a hit in this era of graphic blood and gore TV.
"Time is the fire in which we burn"
-Dr. Tolian Soran
the one that shcoked the hell out of me in 1990, when I was 5, was the story about the pool drain, and the kids intestine being sucked out.
God that was sick...
Or the one where the guy SAWS HIS OWN LEG OFF because its stuck under a tree.
or the one where the brother runs with a knife and stabs his little sister!
Or the home invasion where he takes an old man and his wife hostage.
God those were like "Here kids, we will show you what happens when you act stupid"
Simmilar to "Dont be stupid when your little" "why?" "You might die a horrible and painful death, or end up horribly disfigured" "oh" "also dont chop down trees like an idiot and stand under them"
a police officer stops a train pushing a car with a old married couple inside just 30 feet away from a narrow bridge that would of killed them.
sharethere's only one episode i can remember aside from the mentally paralyzed guy (thank you driver's ed for that wonderful video) who crashed while driving drunk. this one where a lady and her kids were in a building and she left her kids alone and one went down the escalater and got caught or something. it scared the crap out of me when i was little! i wondered how they could get so many camera angles but the guys with the cameras wouldnt help the little boy!
sharemy favorite (if I am remembering this right) was the one where the lady was going to her friends home during a winter storm and for some reason she is walking and her friend finds her frozen solid not far from her home.
sharespooky. even after all these years i dont think i could watch something like that.
shareCAUSE THEY ARE ALL RE-ENACTMENTS
The Camera men could'nt help the actor playing the kid stuck in the escalator
Absolute favorite episode.....
The one about the mother deer who was hit on the freeway! There was a car accident involving her and she was not going to make it, but they realised she was pregnant, gave her quick, and very very ammateur surgery but got the baby out. And he lived. They named him freeway. I remember it almost every time i see a deer. :-)
I was pretty young when this show was on the air but I do remember one episode. This kid was in a room on the second story and was leaning on an open window and the screen gave out and he fell through.
shareI am a train buff and I remember three episodes that I would love to see again
-A man's tackle shop is broken into and tries to beat a train to stop the robbers (he lives)
-A lady get rear ended and her car stops on the railroad track. A man come and pulls her out moments before the train hits her car (I really want to see this one!!!!)
-A older couple is hit at a crossing by some runaway hoppers and a police officers save them by turning the hand brake "Sadley the women dies :-("
Can anyone think of any others I missed?
one of my favorites is when the 911 dispatcher is choking on a piece of hard candy and she keeps setting of the local ambulanc squad's tones to get their attention. one of the funniest episodes in my opinion was the one when the kid got his tounge stuck in the canteen.
sharethe oen where the dad falls off the cliff anod the one where the dude getsd his kneww blown out with an m16
shareI just remembered another one I liked.
The one where 2 boys were playing on a river bank, then one of them falls in and the other goes to rescue but ends up falling in also, there was young black couple walking close and they heard the boys yelling for help. the black man goes to help but before he goes he tells his girlfriend or wife, to tell his mother that their not gonna be able to make to dinner that night. he goes in the water and manages to rescue the boys but sadly he didn't make out of the water because the current was so strong and it made him weak. I thought it was sad, I actually cried when I saw it.
Any episodes that were hilarious without meaning to be
or caused by stupidy were my fav!!
Lets see::
Kid runs with knife!!!
Kid hangs himself with the rope
while pulling a prank for his friend!!!
The kid shoots his sister while she lays
on bed-- the kid was never supposed to play
with it!! It's a gun-- and he was like 6 or 7!!
HELLO!!!
The one I like to call the pedophile epiosde!!!
A young 12 yr old girl is babysitting
a nearby neighbors little boy...a man in a car
drives in a car and pulls up next to the house..
and starts watching her clean up...then we hear
banging on the door!!
Sick pedophile!!
Kid sticks his hand in pool drain-- and it gets
sucked in with him not being able to get out!!
Kid sticks his tongue in freezer getting it stuck!!!
Absolutley stupid and hilarious-- anyone that stupid
should deserve what comes their way!!!
Maybe he would have learned a lesson had he not been
rescued!!!
He could have tugged at his tongue to release it..
it may have been bloody but he would have been free!!
And the girl who rides up the chair lift
by hanging from her moms arm because she could
not get up into the seat properly, and mom never
got off with her when she failed to get in the seat!!
She could have got back in line to wait for the next
chair to come around!! And have a lift attendant
lift her little girl into the seat!!
Or the mom who leaves her baby in the tub
unoccupied with the water going as she splits
out the door to see a garbage man for 10 seconds!!
NEVER LEAVE A BABY OR SMALL CHILD ALONE OR OUT OF
YOUR SITE IN A TUB OR POOL!!
The kid who chokes on a marble!!
Or the kid who pours GASOLINE
on the pot of leaves to get a campfire
going!! He got it going alright!!!
He got his campfire going with a bang!!!
Or the kid who lights the big firecracker
in his bedroom with it in his hand..it goes off in his
hand!! For one, that should be done by an adult
who is mature enough and knows how to handle
fireworks or explosives of that kind...light it
then chuck it instantly!!!
MY point:: Stupidity can cost you your life!!!
But I do love the rescue with the Cival
War reenactment where the man has a heart attack
after the reenactment ends...this man had a lot
of courage and the people who helped him were
true civil war heroes!!
He never deserved to have the heart attack!!
At least it was not caused by doing something
dumb!!
Or that other episode where those two convicts
in the hospital take those perimedics in
the ambulance hostage!!
Was like an extended suspensefull version of COPS!!
I could go on all night!!
I am a train buff and I remember three episodes that I would love to see againI uploaded those last two you mentioned on YouTube about a month ago, you can watch them there. These are the links. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irwTCQGM410, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqlc7cAoDxA
-A man's tackle shop is broken into and tries to beat a train to stop the robbers (he lives)
-A lady get rear ended and her car stops on the railroad track. A man come and pulls her out moments before the train hits her car (I really want to see this one!!!!)
-A older couple is hit at a crossing by some runaway hoppers and a police officers save them by turning the hand brake "Sadley the women dies :-("
Can anyone think of any others I missed?
I remembered a couple more:
-An Amtrak train collides with parked rail cars in a suburb of Baltimore.
-A man collapses on subway tracks as the train approaches
-Suicidal man threatens to jump off bridge over train tracks (this didn't really focus on the train aspect though)
I sort of remember that episode.. the baby was wraped in
a blanket sort in a ditch i think-- the two men find
him-or her ice cold, and rush him to the hospital...and
the two men I think name it after their first names...!!!
That was a real rescue where a person realy saves
a life!!
I liked the story about the Charles Stuart murder case. It was a ride along that turned into a major story in the United States. I also liked the story about the Oklahoma City bombing. I was moved to tears on that story. Any story caught on tape is always my favorite.
shareI always hated the ones about kids, but one was really funny, a kid was playing hide and seek and went to hide in the laundry chute, well he started screaming and his mom got to him, but couldn't pull him out or push him down. Well in comes grandma and she's scolding him while the poor kid is stuck in there and when the fire fighters come in she's trying to tell the fire fighters how to do their job. It was so hilarious. I remember one of the fire fighters name was spike.
Another funny episode was when they were trying to make a plaster mold of this guys face and they forgot to put oil or something on it to keep it from sticking to his skin. They took him to a dentist office and the guy that was going to get it off him was his ex-girlfriends dad.
Once I did wrong, I heard it ever, Twice I did right, I heard it never!
I remember the mold one. LoL. He comes into the dentist office and walks into the wall.
shareGod, so many memories.
I remember an episode where a young boys gets bitten by a rattlesnake and nobody realizes it at the time.
Also, the most memorable episode for me was one in which a small girl fell into a top-loading washing machine and died.
1 that springs to mind is the one about the skydiver with the bad parachute
shareI just watched on where the guy had the plaster mask stuck on his face last night, I hadn't seen it in a while. I laughed when they were trying to walk him out of the room and he walked into the wall.
shareI used to watch this show all the time. There are so many I remember that I don't know which one's my favorite.

my most favorite episode is that one guy who tries to rob a home during christmas season. he tries to come down the chimney and gets stuck and shouts for help and the family was asleep so they wake up to see this guy dangling upside down from their chimney and he's yelling for help. they call the police and they keep asking him, "who are you, what do you want?" and he keeps yelling out "i'm santa, get me out of here." and as they watch as the cops try to find a way to get him out the mom takes his picture as he's hanging there upside down. afterwards, they get him out and he's taken away, in the end the lady said that picture became an awesome christmas card, she basically put the picture in the card and said, "hope you'll be hanging out with us during the christmas season" or something like that! when i saw that episode i was crying with laughter!
anyone remember it?
Yup, I remember that one! And he tried to get away once he was rescued.
shareI think one the cards said "Just drop in anytime!"
sharemaybe i'm making this up--i would've been very young when these were re-running (i was born in 1988) but the only thing i ever remembered about this show was there was a couple sitting on the couch watching tv in the dark. Then the lights started flashing and the dog started barking and it was a ghost. But if these were real it must've been something else that I'd misinterpreted...does anyone recall anything even slightly similar?
share
