Ny expectations were not very high with this show, especially since there were some not so good reviews but I have to say I'm hooked. I'm not expecting true to life stories as this is a television drama. There's some character flaws for sure but so far I'm really enjoying except for the episodes where the fire chief passes away. I was a bit upset with that one. They could've given Hughes a happy ending for a little while!!!! It was excellently executed though as I rarely break down in a regular made for tv drama but I was a sloppy hot mess when he died and even worse for the funeral. Good show so far so I'll stick with it a bit longer.
