    What initially drew me into this series was the fact that Dennis Leary was involved in the writing and I find his sense of humour and writing hilarious! This series could have turned out as another run-of-the-mill half hour comedy, but instead it provides many laughs and deals with modern issues in a comedic sense.Sometimes there is a lot going on in one episode, but that does not take away from the humour and plot lines.Good cast and well written, and I find it actually complements similar show Brooklyn Nine-Nine (hilarious show, by the way)rather than compete with it.Look forward to more episodes soon.

    I am on the 6th episode and I'm writing this review because ...there aren't so many in IMDb! Why is that? Well, I guess the show isn't popular. But it should be!This is a well casted comedy series about a station of paramedics and the quirky situations they encounter, in their job and in their personal lives.The humor has many references about sex. Sometimes over the top, but still enjoyable. Even the characters are somehow "special" in that department. You have the big black man who is gay (similar to Brooklyn 9-9), the girl who is asexual and into some other weird stuff, and ...you get my meaning.Obviously, because the show is about a group of people that deal with medical emergencies, you can expect lots of weird "physical" humor too.Now that Brooklyn 9-9 became too far-fetched (and somehow boring and repetitive), Sirens is my new favorite comedy.Overall: Recommended.

    Let me preface this review by saying that I am neither a prude nor a religious zealot. I appreciate series like Sons of Anarchy where you'd expect the business of an outlaw biker gang to get dirty. The same for the recent True Detective. However, for a "comedy", I expect a certain "lightness of being". Let's take How I Met Your Mother. Barney often speaks of "banging", yet it is done tongue in cheek so it fits in with the feel of the show. It never feels gratuitous or out of place. The same can be said of Archer where "barebacking" or "ball slapping" never seem too crass, unlike Family Guy (which I love) where I often get the feeling that they're simply trying to see how much they can get away with.That being said, the filthiness of Sirens distracts from the overall feel and dulls what could otherwise be a funny and clever show. I found it funny when Hank talked about getting over his ex boyfriend by taking a weekend in Miami. And the Navy Seals/Easter Seals bit was funny as well (unlike the bottle up the butt call which was far too predictable and amateurish). But I find the sex talk poorly crafted which causes it to stand out and seem just plain dirty, Compare that to the seamlessness of "bangity bang" in HIMYM, which never loses the feeling of silliness or absurdity. In fairness, none of the three leads in Sirens can hold a candle to NPH and pull off a seemingly disgusting premise and make it funny (and almost cute): "I'm only pretending to live here so I can take this woman here, nail her and never have to see her again. I'm not a monster." I realize this review for Sirens is light on Sirens and heavy on the other series I prefer. That's simply because there's not much to be said for Sirens. I'm sure 18-35 will love the lowest common denominator "humor". The rest of us will be left to find laughs elsewhere.
