I am enjoying the series so far, but at the same time its hard not to throw out comparisons with Band of Brothers. I really have to stand back and think of them as 2 different shows even though they're made by the same people. The Pacific sure has had a great start though.
The Pacific has been ok so far, I'll like it because I love WW2 shows. However, I really can say that in terms of story telling quality, The Pacific is getting murdered by Band of Brothers at this point.
