This show is incredible. Got the DVD`s of the first season two weeks ago and have watched every episode numerous times since.

Check out some of the clips: Reno 911

It was fun for the first 2 or 3 weeks, then I lost interest.

The premise has been worn out, and there isn't enough new stuff to keep the comedy fresh.

I disagree, I think its seriously one of the best comedies on TV right now. If you HATE "Cops", you gotta love this!

I haven't "lost interest," but it is very hit or miss. It's either fall off the couch laughing hilarious or you're embarrassed you're watching it. There seems to be no middle ground.

The same happens with me. But then I'm thinking about it a few days later and I end up chuckling.

Some of the funniest stuff on there is the most innocent.

Like when LT Dangle dressed up as a Chimney sweeper and they asked him to step foward and sing "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"

I too bought the DVD of the first season and I think it is great. I love the one where Dangle seduces the black dude when they are moving his stuff. Friggin hilarious!

I guess the second season is already on?
