From the folks who brought you recommendations of epic television series like the West Wing and Deadwood comes the latest and greatest recommendation in marathon viewing pleasure.

Rescue Me.

The tale of the trysts and travails of post-9/11 New York firefighters. Dennis Leary's "asshole" character drinks and fucks his way through his haunting emotional problems--with a stellar supporting troupe in his 62 Truck fire crew, who never fail to provide low antics and high comedy. While the show's overarching storylines are often very tragic (addiction, adultery, suicide, kidnapping, arson, masochism), the minute-to-minute scripting is supremely hilarious.

I highly recommend you queue this series.
