Anyone else catch the PNAC diatribe on "Rescue Me" last night?
Edited on Wed Apr-15-09 08:51 AM by JohnnyBoots
I thought it was a pretty spot on summation of the whole PNAC theory in under 2 and half minutes. I was pleasantly surprised to see on national TV when watching the show last night. One of the best character driven shows on TV right now. Great writing. Check it out if you haven't.

Here's the clip:

7. WOW! That was BEAUTIFUL!
All these years later, and I still get quizzical looks from people when I talk about PNAC. So many people are STILL so clueless. Maybe The Tee Vee will finally enlighten them.

8. That Was Only A Short Clip - What Happened In The Rest Of The Program Related To......
this guy saying this? Why was he talking about 9/11 and PNAC? What did it have to do with the rest of the program? Please - let us know when this episode might be shown again.

9. The show is about NYC Firefighters. The lady in the clip is a French author
doing research for a book on 911. She was there to interview certain characters, it is a small subplot compared to the rest of the show.

17. WE caught it.
Started watching Rescue Me last week.
Excellent show.
IT is now programmed in for record each week.
We're now looking for previous seasons.

The short clip was excellent.
Everything you need to know about PNAC & 9-11 in under two minutes.
