Tribute to the television show Emergency!

A tribute to my all-time favorite TV show from the 1970's starring Randolph Mantooth & Kevin Tighe. Quality isn't that great, sorry. Will try and fix at some point.

I wish TVLand still carried the show.

@charliebenhard , they don't need to, all 6 seasons, UNCUT, are available on DVD! ;) And really, they way TVLand butchers shows it's just as well. ;)

Dick Hammer, the show's original captain was indeed a real-life firefighter like Mike Stoker was. After about 8 episodes Dick decided that between his captaining duties w/LACoFD and family obligations he would have to bow out of the show.

[McFly64]

Marco was not a firefighter, he was a contract player for Universal Studios (like Tim Donnelly, Kevin Tighe and Randy Mantooth were) and was actually in episodes of Dragnet and Adam-12 as well. When he got the part on the show, they liked his real name so much they decided to rename his character. Wish we knew what that 'original' name was

[McFly64]

The station was renamed, and dedicated, to the late R.A. Cinader in the late 1980's. There was no station numbered 51 when E! went into production, which is why they used that number. Not sure what year it was, but station 60, which is on the Universal backlot was renumbered 51 in honor of the show.

[McFly64]

Station 127 was the locale for exterior shots only, mostly what they call 'establishing' shots. Occasionally they would take the actors there to film stuff either in the back or in the front, but never inside. A set was built on Universal Studio's backlot and used for interiors for both the station and hospital (and all other interior places too of course).

My good memories growing up were few and far between. This show as one of them.

You still didn't answer my question, what do your contribute to society? Again I am supposing that you really have no clue what emergency medicine or firefighting really is. It is quite obvious to me and I am sure everyone else here that you have some serious self esteem issues if you take the time to read comments from videos that you don't even like. Then leave ignorant comments just to get people stirred up.

Gosh, a beautiful song for such a beautiful show. Loved this show as a small child. And thanks to this show, I am following my dreams 30 some years later. I am getting ready to go back to school in two weeks to become a paramedic. And I owe it ALL to this show, especially Johnny and Roy-Thanks Randy and Kevin, love you guys.
