 I checked this out as well.  So far, I'm liking it pretty well.  It seems that they're using the same format they used with "Band of Brothers," by having the actual veterans speak a bit to introduce the episode.  I thought that worked well for "Band of Brothers," so it will probably work here as well.  The preview for next week's episode looked pretty good.

Fuck Yeah! I've been waiting for this series to start up for months.. Band of Brothers was amazing, if this is even half as good then it will be worth watching

Tom Hanks is an Exec Producer..   ** Spoiler **..   When the Marines were in those ships about to storm the beaches, I thought for sure it was going to start out as a slaughter.. like when they stormed the beaches in Saving Private Ryan, it was kinda funny when they run up on the beach and theres troops already hanging around like "what the fuck took you so long"

This has been so dissapointing for me. Band of Brothers was good because it was character drivin and the acting was amazing. This has lacked both of those elements. Its been boring and nothing has actually happened. Very poor.

It was awful. This compared to Band of Brothers is an outrage. The show was weak. Nothing happened. Having Tom Hanks narrate the opening was poor. Every episodes story was the same. The characters and acting wasn't strong enough to even make it slightly enjoyable.

# relating to or bordering the Pacific Ocean; "Pacific islands"
# disposed to peace or of a peaceful nature; "the pacific temper seeks to settle disputes on grounds of justice rather than by force"; "a quiet and peaceable person"; "in a peaceable and orderly manner"
# the largest ocean in the world
# promoting peace; "the result of this pacific policy was that no troops were called up"
