Rescue Me
is an
American
comedy-drama
television series
that premiered on the
FX Network
on July 21, 2004 and concluded on September 7, 2011. The series focuses on the professional and personal lives of a group of
New York City firefighters
, post
9/11
.
The
protagonist
and focal point of the series is veteran New York City
Firefighter
Tommy Gavin
(
Denis Leary
). The series follows Tommy's troubled family and co-workers as they deal with real life issues, either with post
9/11
trauma or their own domestic problems. Tommy struggles with the loss of his cousin and best friend, Firefighter Jimmy Keefe (
James McCaffrey
), as well as fifty-nine other firefighters whom he knew, who died in the
World Trade Center
on September 11, 2001. Jimmy frequently visits Tommy in ghostly visions. Tommy is an ill-tempered, self-destructive, hypocritical,
manipulative
, relapsed
alcoholic
who suffers with severe
survivor guilt
and
posttraumatic stress disorder
as a result of 9/11. In the pilot episode, Tommy and his wife Janet (
Andrea Roth
) have already separated, although they are technically still married, and Tommy has moved across the street. Although he has a poor grasp on his personal life, most of Tommy's actions as a firefighter are heroic and/or well-intentioned, but despite his devotion and care for others (and for the job), he is viewed by his various family members and his fellow firefighters as self-centered.
Rescue Me
was created by
Denis Leary
and
Peter Tolan
, who also serve as executive producers and head writers, and is produced by Cloudland Company,
Apostle
,
DreamWorks Television
, and
Sony Pictures Television
.
