'First Responders Live' Features FFs, Emergency Workers

June 12, 2019
The unscripted TV series, which is hosted by Josh Elliot and follows first responders in several cities around the country, debuts Wednesday night on Fox.

A new unscripted TV series on Fox looks at the lives of firefighters, paramedics, police officers and other emergency workers in several U.S. cities.

"First Responders Live" airs at 9 p.m. ET Wednesday. The show is hosted by Josh Elliot and produced by "Chicago Fire" and "Law & Order" producer Dick Wolf's Wolf Entertainment.

"Each week, the show will embed cameras in multiple cities across the country, to document a night in the life of these units," a show description states. "Elliott will provide live analysis and commentary, with help from a team of experts, as the show follows first-person accounts of the action."

Some of the cities to be featured in the series include Baton Rouge, LA, and Charleston, SC. 

“I have always been fascinated by the brave work of first responders, who face life-and-death decisions on a daily basis,” Wolf said in statement. “ 'First Responders Live' will give viewers a front row seat to paramedic, fire and police calls, and they will see the challenges of every type of emergency. It is truly the real-life version of ‘Chicago Fire,’ ‘Chicago PD’ and ‘Chicago Med.’"
