...and realized I had completely missed the fact that Fox from 2004 to 2011 aired Rescue me, a TV drama about firemen in NYC after 9/11. I can see by the poster it must have been...
Wickedpedia informs also that the series had "minisodes" one of which "told the story of what happened in the fire station in the moments before the fire crew left the station to respond to the attack on the World Trade Center on the morning of September 11, 2001."Tommy has to struggle with the loss of his cousin and best friend Jimmy Keefe, who died on September 11, 2001, and frequently visits Tommy in visions.
It is interesting to note that the show appears to have been written, directed, produced and acted by none other than actor Denis Leary. Denis Leary has been featured in our research previously.

...he was in "wag the dog", too.As the foundation's president, Leary has been active in all of the fundraising, usually presenting large checks and donated equipment personally. The close relationship he has developed with the FDNY as well as with individual firefighters across the New York/New England area has resulted in Leary's most recent television show, Rescue Me, a comedy-drama on FX. In the pilot episode of the show, he is seen wearing a Leary Firefighter Foundation 9-11 Memorial T-shirt.
