Not sure if I could handle a Band of Brothers type of series focused on the ungodly grind of one or two bomber crews defying death again and again, mission after mission, until they beat the odds and reach their 25 or 30 mission goal and go home. I think this series did a good enough job of getting the message across to us.

We're enjoying the hell out of it and don't think that we've had a wasted episode yet. I'll be sad to not have this on Friday nights going forward.

Yeah I have enjoyed it a lot. But it does feel like they have a LOT of shite to cram into the final episode in order to wrap things up with (assumedly) the end of the war.

All in all I think I'd rank this one a little above The Pacific for me (Pacific didn't resonate with me too much for whatever reason). Maybe after reflection they'll be about on par with each other, and both vastly behind BoB obviously. But I also didn't expect MotA to be on the same level as BoB, and I think I (unfairly) did sort of expect that with The Pacific.
