Rescue Me 4 Premiere date: Thursday 19 June at 20h00
Denis Leary returns as Tommy Gavin, a New York firefighter whose life is in turmoil after the 9/11 attacks.
In Season 4, Tommy survives the fire set by his ex girlfriend, Sheila, who has been fighting to get him back by drugging him, but hazy memories of that night’s events put him at the center of an arson investigation.
Facing the loss of his job and even jail, he delicately arranges for Sheila to have custody of his ex-wife’s Janet’s baby.
The men of the firefighter’s club face trials that include Lou’s romance with a nun, Sean’s stormy marriage to Maggie Gavin, and a disappointing return to duty that ends in suicide. And when Mike is transferred to a crew with a reputation for drinking on the job, Tommy tries to keep him out of harm’s way by secretly joining them on calls dressed in his dead cousin Jimmy’s bunker jacket.

New AmsterdamPremiere date: Tuesday 24 June at 20h00
New Amsterdam tells the story of a New York homicide detective with a life quite unlike any other. He is mysterious, reckless, magnetic and - immortal.
John Amsterdam is 400 years old, with a body of a 35-year old. In the 1640's he was a Dutch soldier in the colony of New Amsterdam - later to become New York City. He stepped in front of a sword to save the life of a Native American girl during a massacre of her indigenous tribe and the girl in turn rescued him, weaving an ancient spell that gave him immortality.
Having witnessed its entire history from colonial outpost to mega-metropolis, John Amsterdam is the embodiment of New York City. He and the island of Manhattan are joined - part and parcel.
Bringing to bear the unorthodox techniques and unique knowledge gained from his vast life experience, Amsterdam today is one of the NYPD’s best homicide detectives, sparring with his vibrant, strong-willed partner Eva Marquez as they solve difficult murder cases.
