Band of Brothers (2001)

Best show I have seen.

[10/10 · 24 June 2020]

Watching this for the first time, it was completely new to me, I'll be honest I didn't have much knowledge about the Second World War. But this series had me hooked from the very beginning as soon as I saw the intro and the music and then when the easy company men spoke the words at the beginning. I have watched this show at least 15 times- I will never get sick/bored of it. I learn something new every time I watch it. It opened the doors for me to learn and discover more about our history and ww2, I have read the books of these men and I can't explain how much I respect them. These were strong, fierce, tough men and some gave the ultimate sacrifice to ensure our freedom. I wish there was 100 more episodes on these men as I feel I would never get bored. The stories they tell are incredible, the bonds they made are amazing and the things they did for us could never be repaid.

I 100% recommend this programme, it will make you laugh and cry but it's worth every possible tear. This programme was done so well you feel you are right there with them throughout it really pulls you in. Hand on heart this is the best show I have ever seen and I will always come back to it. I love it.

Amazing, Raw, Refreshing, Educational

I loved this. I have read all the books of the main gentlemen that are focused throughout the series. And I am now currently ready we who are alive and remain. I am so thankful this documentary was made so I am able to put a face to the name of the other gentlemen I am reading about as they are all equally incredible men, with amazing stories. I appreciate how they are so raw with their emotions and I love how close they still remain to each other. This group of men never fails to amaze and fascinate me with their stories. They always seem to bring a tear to my eye wether I am reading about their lives, listening to them tell stories or watching them. These men honestly deserve to be remembered forever. They are humble hero's in my opinion and I am so glad I am able to learn so much about them as they lived incredible lives. So thank you gentlemen. I respect them all so much and I am forever thankful for all they have done.
