Dentonboy Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Best 'military' TV series ever? Great quotes, action and events firmly based on eyewitness accounts (and very close to how it was written in the book), lots of USMC gear porn and realistic action scenes.

Albiscuit Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Had the boxset years ago, not sure where it is. I remember loving it. May have a look for it at the weekend Thanks for reminding me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Lozart Posted April 21, 2017 Supporters Share Posted April 21, 2017 It's good.....but is it "Band of Brothers" good? Depends what you want from a TV show I guess. Interesting to note that there are 3 or 4 actual marines acting in Gen Kill. Rudy Reyes for one. If you watch the DVD boxset there's a whole load of interviews with the actors/soldiers in the show.

Moderators djben9 Posted April 21, 2017 Moderators Share Posted April 21, 2017 Strike back though is quality, well the later series before the end struggle to watch much TV with kids these days, usually its peppa pig or power rangers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dentonboy Posted April 21, 2017 Author Share Posted April 21, 2017 Ultimate Farce was always good for a laugh. Band of Brothers was great, but I'm going to whisper it...The Pacific was better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopRocket123 Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 Any of you guys watch Bluestone 42? Mainly a comedy but wasn't afraid to get heavy when it needed to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mmmm not sure, I found BoB more to my liking, might have to watch it again as was a few years ago now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitman_Actual Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 One of my favourites - can you tell! ;-) Anyone watch the SIX series on History recently? - a bit cheesy - but good for gear porn! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsh Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Generation Kill was brilliant, in fact I'm going to start watching again after seeing this thread. One series i particularly enjoyed, was The Unit. Perhaps more far fetched than your BoB and GK, but very watchable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
