New Series

[Guest guest]

Sounds like another program coming down the line that is not going to be good

for EMS's image.

Comedian Denis Leary took a break from the laughs when 911 inspired him to

co-create and star in the fiery world of Rescue Me back in 2004. With his

intense eight-season run as damaged fireman Tommy coming to a close, Leary's

getting loose in the writers' room with Bob Fisher (Wedding Crashers, Traffic

Light) to adapt the six-part UK comedy series Sirens.

" Swept along by an endless tide of bodily fluids rarely their own, the Sirens

trio bicker, fight and shag their way through the darkly funny maelstrom of

their lives, " previews a USA network release. " Behind the uniforms, the sirens

and the incredibly fast driving, they are three ordinary blokes trying to make

it through yet another shift. But once they've finished saving other people's

lives, they need to salvage their own. "

The original Sirens -- created by Fillis and inspired by EMT paramedic Tom

Reynolds' book, Blood, Sweat and Tea -- hasn't yet premiered on British Channel

4, but there is a preview to check out (see video below).

The exec producing team behind the US adaptation on USA includes Leary, Fisher,

Jim Serpico (Rescue Me), Hal Vogel and Aukin (Hyde Park on the Hudson, End

Game, The Promise).
