Anyone else get a chance to see Denis Leary's new show on FX?
I must say, if not for the existence of <i>Deadwood</i>, this would be the best new show this year. Somehow, he got the perfect mix of humor and drama, considering some of the subject matter (life on the FDNY post-9/11).
I figure JimmyBlueEyes is still off somewhere quietly sobbing at some of the more poignant scenes.
And on a related note, God bless FX-- they're certainly not afraid to shy away from adult programming, in this era of FCC political correctness watchdogging. If only other networks were willing to take risks to put quality fare on, they wouldn't be complaining constantly that HBO and Showtime can "get away with" more than they can.
