This show is awesome. I thought the different perspectives were extremely interesting and some of the footage is just unbelievable.

I had never heard about the battle over the Aleutian islands.

On a different note, the America: Story of US series looks pretty awesome, too.

Only caught the last 20 minutes of this last night but that easily convinced me to tune in the rest of the week. Really good show.

I was tired as a MOFO last night watching this and stopped it an hour in, so I have three hours to watch tonight.

I think tonight is Tarawa and the Italian campaign at 8, then at 9 is Operation Overlord and US 8th Air Force.


I'm looking forward to the Normandy landings, hopefully they have found some undamaged footage that has yet to be made public.

Wait, how long are these episodes?

My DVR already fills up with too much shite, and I can't be throwing 20+ hours of HD in the mix this week.

2 hours last night, 2 hours tonight....so I'm guessing 2 hours each night.

Cool. That's not too bad. I read what he said wrong and was thinking he had 4 hours to catch up on from yesterday.

Surely they will air reruns constantly.

I'm glad History channel is actually giving us good series again. Instead of Ice road truckers and shite like monster quest.

Finally something interesting.

+1, but I'll give them a pass on running Band of Brothers.

True, Band of the Brothers is pretty badass. Get ready for The Pacific coming to HBO in March.

Coke, I think its two hours every night thru Saturday. I just didnt start watching the one last night until after 10 and was starting to fall asleep an hour in. I'm going to watch the second hour of episode one and both hours of episode two tonight. Hopefully.

Anybody else get chills when they showed the Nazis executing those Eastern Europeans (I'm blanking on the country). The scene where 10 or so are hanging from the tree then the line of them getting shot really hit me.
