Sheesh, I plowed through all of Season 3 of Rescue Me in just 2 days. It has been at least 5 years since I last watched this season. Long enough for me to have forgotten that both Susan Sarandon and Marisa Tomei both has small, but memorable roles in this one, which made the season better than the last. With the exception of Johnny moving onto the other side, this season wasn't nearly as depressing as the previous season. There was actually a bit more humor this time around. If there is one negative I have with this season and it can be argued last season as well is Mike's character. He had a solid arc during Season 1 and most of Season 2. But somewhere along the way his character just disappeared into nothingness. Everyone else is getting their fair share of quality story lines.

Season 4 and onward, I am very much in the dark and don't know what's coming. So, I'm very anxious to see where Rescue Me is heading and it's great knowing that I have the rest of the series sitting on my DVD rack. As for Season 3, definitely worth a Rent. Great cliffhanger. Can't wait to see how it concludes with the start of Season 4. Very strange to see Ground Zero from 9/11 before construction even began on the new towers. That's how old this season is. When they do show scenes there, it does make the hair stand up on your arm.
