Amy Sedaris: Crazy, even by "Rescue Me" standards
After some grim going, “Rescue Me” has lightened up agreeably in the past couple of episodes. And tonight’s episode continues the trend, with Tommy (Dennis Leary) stumbling through another date with Beth (Amy Sedaris), his captain’s daughter. Remember how she took a cellphone call from her shrink mere seconds into their first date? This one doesn’t get any better.
Tommy also has another friskily bewildering rendezvous with Gina Gershon’s horny mystery woman, attends another fractious family AA meeting and battles a newfound fear of heights that has befallen him after his father (Charles Durning) informed him that he suffered from same as a child.
Meanwhile, Franco (Daniel Sunjata) is shocked to discover who his former fiancée is now dating, and Lou (John Scurti) continues to have the most Daliesque personal life a TV show has ever depicted.
- “Rescue Me:” 10 tonight, FX.
