Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Created and produced by TV legend Jack Webb, Emergency! delivered a double dose of medical drama and real-life action into its stories, which made it a major favorite among viewers during its '72-77 network run. The season 1 set compiles the first 11 episodes of the program, in which paramedics Gage (Randolph Mantooth) and DeSoto (Kevin Tighe) tackle crises both big and small, from plane accidents ("Crash," "Dealer's Wild") and baby deliveries ("Brushfire") to the rescue of a horse in a ditch ("Publicity Hound"). Ably assisting the men in the field are the emergency room hospital staff, led by Dr. Joe Early (Bobby Troup, the composer of "Route 66"), Dr. Kelly Brackett (Robert Fuller of Laramie), and Nurse Dixie McCall (singer Julie London); Deirdre Hall of Days of Our Lives fame also appeared (in this season only) as Nurse Sally Lewis. An energetic and entertaining series, the success of Emergency not only spawned a host of promotional tie-ins (and a Saturday morning cartoon), but also helped spark attention for and interest in paramedic work during its network run, which is a considerable legacy for any television program.
Though no extras are included in the season 1 double-disc set, the 1972 two-part pilot, "The Wedsworth-Townsend Affair," is included; directed by Jack Webb, the pilot also features guest appearances by Martin Milner and Kent McCord in their roles from another of his then-current series, Adam-12. --Paul Gaita

The episodes look good. It brought back lots of memories. Watching the pilot was cool. I don't think I had ever seen how it all got started. The lack of any extras caused a one star deduction.

Thoroughly enjoyed the series as it is a long time since I have seen them and they were as good as I remembered the only disappointment was that it says on each disc side A) and B) but mine only have A) so therefore I only have half of the shows that are listed on the box

The season 1 video was very good. The pilot episode was directed by Jack Webb, and it REALLY showed. The paramedics were clean cut and gung ho. This was not a full season, but all episodes were very good.

i grew up watching Emergency. Now that I have it again I can see it any time I want to. You never know how good a show is until you've seen it years later. Since 911 happend you really appretiate every thing that Firefighters & Parametics do. I aplaud the creators of the show. Can't wait for season's 5,6,& 7 to come out so we all can get them & enjoy the crazyness staition 51.
