Coincidence driving key plot points is usually considered poor writing. However, I like that we get to find out what happens to some people because they show-up again in a later episode.
For example, the basketball player that Bobby saves who buried in the parking garage after the earthquake returns to save him at the end of S6 when the freeway collapses.
You'd be more likely to win the lottery. Yet, the 118 regularly runs into people from the past. It's weirdly satisfying to find out what happens to some of the rescues afterwards.
This is an automatic reminder about spoiler content, it does not mean you have violated the spoiler rule.
REMINDER: Do NOT post spoiler information IN the title (for any season), your post will be removed. If it is you may re-post it with an appropriate spoiler free title. It does not matter if you flag it spoiler, the spoiled info is still visible in the title.
Rule of thumb, any posts pertaining to the current season should be marked SPOILER via the Universal Tags. (+Spoiler)
Keep titles vague, include the word spoiler in the title (this will automatically flag it as a spoiler post) and make sure to properly flair it to the correct category - I.e. Episode Discussion, Character Discussion, Season #, etc...
If you aren't sure if your post counts as a spoiler, flag it anyway.
This applies especially to currently airing or upcoming seasons.
