Rescue Me will end its run in 2010, the year that marks the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks that inspired the show, the show’s co-creator and executive producer Peter Tolan told TVGuide.com.
Rescue Me’s focus has always been on New York City firefighters and the post-9/11 trauma they face. That focus was renewed this season, as one fireman spoke out about the terrorist attacks being a government conspiracy, while another battled cancer believed to have been caused by exposure at the World Trade Center site.

FX and Louis C.K. have shot a pilot starring stand-up star. Tentatively titled Louie, the half-hour comedy is based on his life as a comedian and divorced father of two. The stories are told through a mix of standup routines and sketches in which he acts opposite actors playing his kids, ex-wife and friends. It’s a grassroots project for Louis, who not only wrote Louie, but also cast it, directed it and even edited it, with the help of $250,000 in seed money from FX. Louis shot the low-budget project in New York.
Louis’ life situation as a recently divorced man still co-parenting with his ex-wife largely informs both his current standup routine and this new show. His experience as a fortysomething man back on the dating scene also plays a large role. The pilot includes two stories: In one vignette, Louie must volunteer at his kids’ school, and things go horribly wrong when he chaperones a field trip. In another bit, he goes on a terrible date.
