    I like it. It's quite 'American' if you get my drift, pretty dramatic but good characters in it.

    Yeh I understand :)

    Ah, Third Watch. Now that was an awesome TV show :D

    Enjoying Chicago Fire though. My mum didn't recognise Billy from Neighbours :D Couldn't believe it was him when I told her!

    I'm taping episode 2 tomorrow night and going to catch the series on Wednesday nights :)

    Does Jesse have an American accent? Or does he keep his own accent?

    Just seen a clip - an American accent :D

    Can someone very kindly say what happened in episode 1 please? :)

    Just watched most of the second episode - I'm enjoying it. It's interesting and makes me wonder what is going to happen next. Kelly (I think that's his name) looks interesting.

    Chicago Fire has now been given a full 22 episode first season.

    We're only two weeks behind the US so the usual stop/start US pace will kick in soon.

    Perhaps Sky will take a prolonged mid season break?

    Good news about the 22 episodes, really enjoying it so far.

    Love this show so far, some really good continuing storylines.

    Lady Gaga's r/l b/f seems relatively "normal" was expecting him to have three heads or something.

    Snuck up on me this one. Saw the trailers and assumed it was Sky Atlantic based programme. Did fear the worst when I found out it was on Living.

    But it's pretty watchable. Elements of ER, Third Watch in it's styling. It's very watchable and the hour passes pretty quickly. The pretty Paramedics help

    The first two episodes werent that great setting everything up it switches tones quickly from character drama to procedural I was pleasantly surprised by episode 3 which seems to get a storyline going now. Episode 4 might be good as long as it doesnt fall back into the confusion that was episode 1 and 2.

    I also see that critics over in the US have been slating the show, its not as bad as some of the reviews say but then again it does have its bad moments.

    I'm not usually very quick/smart when it comes to predicting what will happen in TV shows, but this show makes me feel like Nostradamus.

    Critics are hit and miss though, surely it's all about the ratings? Unless a show has bad ratings and good critical acclaim then it's safe?

    I'm in the middle of episode 4 and really getting into it.

    I spotted him. Lost his boyish good looks though. :o:D

    It's ok...bit cheesy and American, but it's ok. :)

    Are people still watching? I'm loving it.

    I guess we're just waiting for the police guy to take some sort of revenge? Surely that storyline can't have ended?

    I'm convinced something will happen with that, it seemed such a rushed ending to the storyline.

    Yeh definately. Maybe he will get let off somehow and go back for revenge? Poor Casey :(

    I take it that it's on a break at the moment? Does anyone know when it's back on in the UK?

    Loving this series!!

    You haven't missed any episodes. It's now on a mid-season break and according to Geektown won't return until March -
