Best ever show on TV. Period.   The Germans General's speech at the end: Best ever scene shown on TV.

just my opinion  ;D

I'm sure those other shows are great too.

I think I am going to start watching it Sunday after Generation Kill.

Is Generation kill any good?  I heard it's by David Simon and Ed Burns, the guys that made The Wire.

Yeah, I'm glad to see someone here appreciates The Wire.  Although it is difficult to place it ahead or behind Band of Brothers.  They both have their strong qualities.

The fact that's it's 10 hours is a good thing once into it, since it's addicting once hooked. Something like Saving Private Ryan in some ways, same producers. But less downtime, more focused on the front.

It's based off the movie City of God, based in Rio. Takls about the drug trade in Brazil's favelas, movie is good, rent it, but it is in Portuguese with English subtitles.

If i remember right, it's a bunch of interviews with them.  It's good.  Joe Toy shows (i think it's him) you where he lost his leg at in the forrest outside of foy.
