I think the general consensus is that Band of Brothers is better than? I think so at least. There has been so much boring dialogue this series, with Band of Brother's I could at least feel for the men, I just can't seem to with The Pacific.
I haven't seen this episode yet, only read the plot outline (why I avoided it right away), but damn. Another love story, I can't take 2 in the series, the one in episode 3 (I believe it was) sucked and was boring, but I got why they did it, but they had to do it again?!
