EMERGENCY! was first broadcast thirty-six years ago
on Saturday, January 15, 1972
as a two-hour pilot movie for the series . . . . . . . .
with
weekly one-hour episodes beginning January 22, 1972
.
For six and one-half years, we shared their adventures
as they defined "hero" and made emergency medicine and paramedics household words.
And a generation grew up with a dream of service,
inspired to be "just like Dixie" and the others.
