Does Hollywood accurately portray the fire service, or is it all just glitz and glam for the cam?

My fire service background is mainly having worked in small volunteer departments... So I don't know the inner workings of a big city squad... Is the job of a firefighter, EMT, or paramedic accurately portrayed by the movie and television industry. I'd love to hear your opinions on this and what shows or movies you enjoy relating to our chosen field of firefighting...
