Is it weird for this to be your favorite show


Because that's the vibe I seem to get sometimes when I tell others. It's on tv several times a day and I can't miss one, I'm hooked. It's one of the best shows for a long time. But there's a stigma attached.

It had been my favorite show for most of December and the first of January. Then I ran out of available episodes and the love fell away.
I'll say this (and in doing so I'll show just how old I am) it's a better show compared to 'Rescue 911' even though they are both similar for the time periods they were made in. Better scripting, direction, narration and production values of each episode really make this show shine. I guess when you don't have to pay a big name star like William Shatner a ton of money to host and narrate you can put that money to better use elsewhere.

Oh, and if you've never seen an episode of or even heard of 'Rescue 911' you should see if you can find episodes from the first season somewhere online. Just don't watch anything from the final seasons. After the first three seasons the show started to rely more on news and stock footage and less on quality reenactments.
