I discovered a TV show on Netflix streaming that aired during the 70's for six seasons called Emergency! It's good clean fun. It's kind of like Law & Order but with Paramedics and Doctors. Does anyone remember this show?

Indeed I do. Back then I had the warms for Julie London (who played Dixie McCall). She was drop dead gorgeous.

I loved that show when I was a kid. I had a huge crush on the dark-haired lead (De Soto, I think)

So did my sister. We used to tease her by calling him Randal Manfang (Mantooth).

I remember this show I had a friend who loved Johnny Gage she had a picture of him on her schoolcase and when we went swimming she used to jump in the Swimming pool and shout out his name.

Does anyone actually remember the show itself and not the male leads?

Of course.

Saw a couple of episodes on a retro TV channel. I was amazed we thought it was so entertaining.

yes Squad 51 and the firestation and the loud noise when their tones went off and how they could transmit an EKG and one episode a toilet was on fire and one time one of the guys was blinded by a spitting cobra.

I love that show! I watched it when I was a kid. It was aired on TV in 1990s where I lived.
