About Tacoma FD

Tacoma FD is an American comedy television series that first aired in 2019. Produced by TruTV, the show centers around a firehouse in the wettest city of the U.S. - Tacoma, Washington. The crew of firefighters spend much of their time taking part in wet and wild activities, due to the light fire incidence rate. Rather than fighting fires, their time is filled with crazy antics and over-the-top pranks, creating hilarity and humor that keeps viewers hooked.

Making / Production

The television series is the brainchild of two brilliant minds, Kevin Heffernan and Steve Lemme, the creators of Super Trooper. After three successful seasons, the series has proved to be a hit. The show is a mix of situational comedy and character-driven plots, often highlighting the funnier and lighter side of a typically serious profession.
