"Rescue 8" is a syndicated American action drama series about Los Angeles County Fire Department Rescue Squad Number 8. It premiered in 1958, and originally ran for two seasons with syndicated reruns continuing for almost a decade after. It starred Jim Davis as firefighter Wes Cameron, and Lang Jeffries as firefighter Skip Johnson. The series was produced by Screen Gems, with directors Dann Cahn and William Witney. A total of 73 half-hour episodes were produced. The real Los Angeles County Fire Department Station 8 is at 7643 West Santa Monica Boulevard [http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=7643+Santa+Monica+Blvd.,+West+Hollywood,+CA&sll=34.092722,-118.355649&sspn=0.008334,0.014591&layer=c&ie=UTF8&t=h&cbll=34.094985,-118.356053&cbp=1,354.60132145435176,,1,-3.1624625144750693&ll=34.09887,-118.35567&spn=0.008333,0.013304&z=16&panoid=6N0Yv7gcrxRr7K6VCa5Yqw] in West Hollywood, California. This series showed more physically-oriented rescues than the later, similar television series "Emergency!", as firefighters were not trained as paramedics at the time of its production.
