TV show description:
A dramedy, this series revolves around the work and personal lives of EMT’s who work for the Eminent Ambulance Company in Chicago.
Their sometimes silly and self-righteous (even self-destructive) personalities make them unqualified for sustaining relationships, friendships, and most occupations. Thankfully for the citizens of the windy city, they are uniquely qualified for saving anyone who winds up in their ambulance.
Johnny Farrell (Michael Mosley) is a good-looking, sports-loving EMT. He works alongside his lifelong friend, Hank St. Clare (Kevin Daniels), who’s openly gay.
Theresa Kelly (Jessica McNamee) is a smart female cop with the Chicago PD who still loves her ex, Johnny. Ultimately she had to move on when he wouldn’t commit. Wide-eyed and excitable, Brian Czyk (Kevin Bigley) is a new EMT who still lives with his parents.
Episode #10 — Shotgun Wedding
Getting shot in the arm during a robbery causes Theresa to assess where she is on the road to her dreams, and she doesn’t like what she sees. Afraid that her FBI talk is for real this time, Johnny proposes that they go get married. As in, today. Right now.
So with holy matrimony in their sights and Maeve and Hank sworn to secrecy as witnesses, Johnny and Theresa head down to the courthouse. Of course, the secrecy thing seems to elude Hank and Maeve, who arrive with the whole station house in tow, plus Billy. Unfortunately, the powers that be inform them about the 24-hour waiting period, but when Billy mentions that they can get married at his uncle’s church across town, the excited newlyweds-to-be take it as a good sign. And that’s when things really start to go off the rail.
First aired: April 14, 2015.
What do you think? Do you like the Sirens TV series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season instead?
Bring the show “Siren” back. It was great and an actual funny show. Please!
Just like Firefly, another good show killed while reality dreck thrives
I just recently ran across this show a couple weeks ago. I binged both seasons and was expecting a 3rd. Since then I’ve introduced it to several of my friends and coworkers who love it. This is by far one of the best shows I’ve seen in the past 5 years. As a Firefighter/EMT I would say it’s comedic gold. BRING BACK SIRENS!!!! Please please please even if has to be strictly Netflix or hulu BRING THEM BACK
I’m so disappointed by this. Just another example of how stats and quotas have to be met. Corporate doesn’t care about entertainment, just the numbers……
They finally come out with a great comedy with laugh out loud moments and they pull it. Very disappointed with USA.
I liked the Chicago NYC mix!!! Great writing funny show!!!
I have to admit this one did not grab my attention until the 2nd season, then I tried to catch the season 1 episodes whenever they aired. Too bad for me and everyone else who took awhile to get interested in this jewel in the rough.
WTH. This was one of the best half hour shows in a long time. So disappointed. Take some of the talk shows and reality crap off instead.
I loved the show Sirens! It was really unique in the characters and story lines. I thought it was really funny and had relevant story lines. Bring it back!
This show was hilarious! I should have known that if I liked it, it would get cancelled.
I and everyone I know loves Sirens… From the witty banter between the characters, and the comical medical scenarios they deal with… I want more Sirens, as I’m sure many do…. BRING BACK SIRENS!!!!
I love this show. It should have been renewed for multiple seasons. The choice to cancel it was made by fools! Someone needs to pick this up quickly before the awesome cast is nabbed elsewhere.
This was the best ensemble sitcom since Scrubs. Having grown up in the era when sitcoms were king and you could not throw a rock without hitting a good one – MASH, All in the Family, Barney Miller, The Jeffersons, etc. – it is rare when I find one with the quality that I hope for, and Sirens had it. Oh, well.
I love this show. It should not have been cancelled.
this show is great better then half those shows out there
