For fans of the HBO miniseries, Band Of Brothers, comes the The Pacific. The series, The Pacific was created and produced by the same people who brought us Band of Brothers. The series starts tonight at 9pm and reruns at 11pm. You can check it out here http://www.hbo.com/index.html#/the-pacific

I read about that in USA Today the other morning, sounds like another great WWII hit from the brothers Hanks/Speilberg !
Can't wait for it to hit the regular channels!

Maybe worthy of a boxed set...fingers crossed.

I loved the book by Stevens E Ambros Band of Brothers and I loved the show. Dose anyone know if this show is also based on a book?

It is actually based on the memoirs of two soldiers along with additional other sources, such as

With the Old Breed by Eugene Sledge
Helmet for My Pillow by Robert Leckie

The series will tell the stories of the two authors and Marine John Basilone

I have been waiting for this series for the past 3 years since the production has been announced.
