Qryos Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 ~ Anyone watching HBO's 'Generation Kill'? It's quite a show. Makes me grumbly grumpy as war tends to, but it's really well done.It's a 7 episode thingy, just showed #5 tonight. Next Sunday #6.The week after they're gonna show the first 6 Saturday before the finale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tallmike Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 I agree, its an incredible show. I have watched all of them, the only part I dont like is that there are only going to be 7 of them.Although, I dont expect anything less than an incredible show from an HBO original series anymore. There have been a few that disappointed me, but for the most part all of their shows are great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorian Gray Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 I watched a couple of episodes. Some of it reminds me of quite a few people I was deployed with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizard Adam Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Yeah I think there are going to be some serious sensationalized media about this and the attitudes of the soldiers in those situations. I personally don't care because a lot of my buds were in Iraq and you have to rationalize the crap that goes on or you'll end up blowing your head off ~sighs~. The vast majority of them never complain or cry...they just continue to do as they are told like troopers, even though many have been stuck there darn near the whole 5 years ~smiles~.

Rev. Kelly Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 I started watching it and kept getting confused about the characters. Then my converter box went to crap, and I had to wait to get a new one. I finally have a new one and will have to catch up. I will say that inspite of my confusion it is a well done show.

Qryos Posted August 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 ~ Kelly, that's why I mentioned they're gonna do a 'mini marathon' ~ Mike, I agree, HBO series' are really good! Deadwood & Rome were marvelous! {Our son bought them for us }Yes, they are adult shows, graphic & all... but life frequently is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
