Well I guess it's not new. My girlfriend is a nursing student and I'm an EMT-P and I am watching this show for the very first time. I have started referring to this show when I am helping her and teaching classes. it was funny I referred to what happened yesterday on Emergency! the other day then realized it was from 1974. really love this show even though its 30+ years old it is still more accurate medically and professionally than most shows today. I just started season 3 and don't know how I feel about the new opening sequence, the use of aerial photography was n improvement but it just felt kind of cluttered. Well no use in writing the producers LOL. I really wish they could make a show like this again. It proves that you dont need a ton of special effects if you have good stories and character developement.
This show will always be one of my favorites. I hope they can get the rest of the seasons up, and the pilot I heard good things about it too.
