"the bunker"
was gonna watch until i saw an interview in which tom hanks went on some incoherent rant about the reasoning why we went into wwII....citing racism or some other b.s.....

as ralph peters said,we responded to savagery with savagery...and we won...

maybe it will be excellent...i`m sure it will be a high budget,high end quality production......let us know,nole...

enjoy...

I have been behind and just now getting around to downloading it. Will watch late tonight.
Based on critic reviews for the entire show it sounds promising:

http://www.metacritic.com/tv/shows/pacific

And if the New Yorker gives it a 60 then it must be good because they are always wrong.

Also looking forwad the start of the new show tomorrow on FX "JUSTIFIED". Looks like something along the lines of Shield or Sons of Anarchy style as all FX shows are. Should be good if it compares to those two.

Justified looks awesome, have it setup to record also.

Does anyone here watch Damages? I like that one too

WOW. You have never heard of Breaking Bad. Must rent seasons 1 and 2 then you will get hooked:
Edgy dark comedy.

Breaking Bad is an American television drama series created and produced by Vince Gilligan. The series is produced by Sony Pictures Television and broadcast in the United States and Canada on the cable network AMC. It premiered on January 20, 2008, and completed its first seven-episode season on March 9, 2008. The show's 13-episode second season ran from March 8 to May 31, 2009. A third season was announced in April 2009,[1] to premiere March 21, 2010.[2]

Set and produced in Albuquerque, New Mexico, Breaking Bad revolves around Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a struggling high school chemistry teacher with many family issues. When White is diagnosed with terminal lung cancer, he breaks down and turns to a life of crime, producing and selling methamphetamine with his former student Jesse Pinkman (Aaron Paul) in a desire to secure his family's financial future.[3]

Breaking Bad has received widespread critical acclaim, particularly for its writing and Cranston's lead performance, and has won four Emmy Awards in addition to numerous other awards and nominations.

Just finished first episode of The Pacific and I was hoping for a little more out of it but it was not bad. I hope it picks up though.
