Just like Ryan Murphy's 9-1-1 , this new series focuses on the cast and the emergencies are second in line BUT they are obscure incidents rather than your normal fire or accident .
SPOILERS :
The show begins with an Austin, Texas Fire company killed in a blast with one survivor who will eventually get back on the horse and join the newly rebuilt Station 126 .
Capt Strand ( Rob Lowe ) is a survivor of 911 in New York and rebuilt his Firehouse . He gets diagnosed with cancer and accepts an offer to rebuild Austin FD. He is divorced ( twice ) and has a gay son in his Fire Company , who accompanies him to Texas. We get introduced to his crew recruited that include his son, a transgender , a female Muslim , an O.C.D. rookie and the lone survivor of the tragedy who is married to a 911 dispatcher .. We also meet Liv Tyler as a Paramedic ( Capt ) who has a thing for Cat. Strand
The comparison to New York's disaster and effect on people is well worked into the episode.
score 10/10
