Was given the box set for Crimbo and, with only 2 episodes left I'm loving it.
With the collaberation between Hanks and Spielberg they have delivered a wonderfully accurate portrail of the sacrifice and commitment that the 101st Air Born gave to the war, the style is very much on par with Saving Private Ryan with some excellent acting from the cast who were picked not just for the acting ability but for the resemblance to the real life soldiers they are portraying.
If you haven't seen this yet I'd reccomend buying it, especially if you like Saving Private Ryan and you can get it quite cheap now
