Through 5 episodes now...
Riveting, dramatic and at times heart-breaking
God bless the hero generation, not much sugar-coating of the war

Really happy to hear that. Loved both Band of Brothers and The Pacific, so I was looking forward to this. But I'd read some underwhelming reviews that gave me pause.

Can't miss TV in our house. Even the missus is riveted to this one - and its a topic far removed from The Bachelor.

Yes, those two series set a high bar.

At this time, I believe so.

I think I'm all WW II'd out. I've watched so much stuff on it the last few years, along with reading two books on Winston Churchill.

I get it...

Hanks and Spielberg have sprinkled some fairy dust on this one and its a mini-series only. I'm not saying its the next Saving Private Ryan - but its far superior to a lot of the schlock streaming. 

If you have Apple TV? Probably worth your time.
