  This 70s classic is the grandfather of the modern emergency procedural. It was groundbreaking for its time, focusing heavily on the technical aspects of paramedics and rescue squads. The show was so effective at portraying real-life rescue procedures that it actually helped inspire the creation of the paramedic profession in many parts of the United States. It is a fascinating watch for history buffs who want to see how the blueprint for modern emergency television was first drawn.
