The series was premiered on June 12, 2006. The pilot episode, "A Day in the Life", received 5.1 million viewers.[1] The Hollywood Reporter was the first to report that Saved would not be renewed by TNT,[2] followed by various other sources, contradicting reports by the Internet Movie Database that Saved season 2 would begin on TNT with the episode "Epidemic" on March 5, 2007.[3]

Plot

Saved tells the story of Wyatt Cole, a Portland, Oregon, paramedic with a rough past and a history of compulsive gambling. The series follows the ups and downs of Cole's life, from the adrenaline rush he receives from his busy 24-hour shift to the chaotic personal decisions he makes.
