Anybody follow this?

Made by Tom Hanks, its along the lines of Band of Brothers, which follows Easy Company in Europe.

It follows the Marine Corps in the battle of the pacific against the japanese

i.e Iwo Jima, Guadal Canal, Peleliu etc


Absolutely fantastic, and if you have just seen episode 8 OMG!:eek::eek:

Been watching episodes sporadically over the last week or so, think I'm up to episode 7.


***SPOILER***








I'm on the episode where Eugene is contemplating taking out one of the Jap's gold teeth and Merriell is tossing stones into what's left of that guys head. Is that 7 or 8?

i watch it too man and i must say its some of the best tv ive ever seen, really puts into perspective what sort of hell these guys went through!

the war scenes are fantastic aswell, you can tell its the most expensive tv series ever produced.

and yes i cant believe its going to end too, especially with how episode 8 ended :(

Think its purely how it affects both sides of the soldiers, the war parts and the parts at home and how it affects others.

Do want more action though! Think it is amazing, love the fact that they do the veterans stories aswell

Ive seen the 1st 2 episodes and thought it was a bit slow to start to be honest compared to band of brothers which I thought was one of the best shows i've ever watched. The fight scenes and the story is very good. Although thats only 2 episodes Ive seen. Im just gonna wait until its released on DVD and sit down and watch it all in the one day. I'm sure ill be impressed with viewing more episodes.
