Band Of Brothers weekend on the History Channel
 

Is anyone else watching this? My wife and I got it for my father in law 3 years ago but have never watched it. There is a marathon this week on the history channel. This is one of the best shows I've ever seen on WWII.

my fave mini series ever - love it - compelling

Yeah, it's based on Steven Ambrose's Band Of Brothers. He's one of my favorite history authors. The show is made by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg. From what I can tell it's written about veterans who are still alive from the 101 airborne. Very good show!

Really amazing show. I need to buy the DVD set as well.

Yes, I think I'm going to have to add this one to the collection myself.

I got the series on dvd. I love watching it

I have the collectors edition dvd thingie... got it for xmas last year... BEST series ever. I heard there was a rumor of another one being shot when they goto japan or something. But that was a while ago.

Ive personally seen the whole series 4 times now.

band of brothers kicks ass, I watched it on DVD now its on Demand here

i loved this mini series ... cant wait to see it again

They just found the concentration camp. Man, this is a good show.

Band of Brothers is a great series. I missed in on TV when it first came out, but have since watched in on DVD a number of times since then.

It was sure was a different time and a different kind of war.

Yeah, I cant even count the times ive seen it. And right now I'm sick so I've been watching it all day :P

This is one that has got to be seen in HD.

awesome show, I need to pick it up on DVD

The ending of it gave me the chills. I need to buy this and watch it from the beginning. I missed the first few episodes.

It is totally awsome! Gotta see it again very soon!

And they are making a new one now.... Pacific wars or something... cant remember!

Best series ever...
Is that sequel really coming? The one from the Pacific or whatever it was ( against the Japanese )

It would rock if they made one from the Pacific.

that was a truly great series. I am not a big TV watcher and that had me glued to the tube every week when it was first on. Great stuff.

Band of Brothers is an excellent war movie, thumbs up for a good job!

Yep, it's on http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0374463/

They were planning on making it. I was just going to ask if anyone knew any details as I haven't heard anything in a while.

Nice. GFY is great sometimes.

gfy kicks ass... And that show in 2009 will too! I cant wait!
