Nope unfortunately, but now that I've started the show, I don't wanna ruin the surprise of what happens after

I like and enjoy the mini series of The Sinner is a great show. One of the best show I have seen in a while. Nice and short.

Toss up between "The Beverly Hillbillies" and " Married ... With Children".
I love "switched at birth" - a story about two girls who were switched when they were newborns. Sounds really cliché but I enjoyed it. Anyone else watched it?

Breaking Bad is super good!
The office

My favorite shows that I could watch for hours and hours:
Game of Thrones
Sex & The City
Sons of Anarchy - The last three episodes of this show are probably the best thing I've seen on television. The sixth season wasn't the greatest but they more than made it up for it with the seventh season.
Sense8 is also there, I'm still not over Netflix cancelling it
The Expanse
Kaamelott
Game of Thrones
The punisher
Altered carbon

Game of thrones
Rome
Band of Brothers (miniseries)
The Pacific (miniseries)
Westworld

In about 2 weeks I'm getting a copy of a unit history that illuminates the battle of Carentan better!

Carantan is interesting. I've watched a pretty good program a couple of years ago (it was in French), which really detailed this battle (troops movements, strategies, reactions, etc.)
The episode on the Siege of Bastogne also caught my interest quite a lot. There's a lot of drama and intensity there. Things get different when there's a lot of hardships.
Also, I think that battles in the cold/winter are fascinating, they change a lot of things (particularly the battles on the East front; I like how the Russians fought wildly with their raw violence).

I got my book already- very impressed with the contents.
The 17.SS division's forward detachment (a regimental battlegroup) attempted a coup de main attack on the 101.AB that culminated in the battle of the 'bloody gulch'. This attack routed half a battalion of paratroopers but was eventually stopped by a counterattacking combat command of the US 2nd Armored division. The TV show depicts this.
Bastogne, while well known in the West was atypical as those that surrounded them were weaker than the defenders. The 101.AB was reinforced with elements of an armored division and the soldiers inside had aerial resupply that matched their needs. Most of the great encirclement battles in the East (Stalingrad Dec 42- Jan 1942) had a similar pattern of the attackers being much more heavily armed and mobile than the defenders while the defenders had a mobile relief force that attempted to fight their way into the pocket. The defenders were struggling with low supplies and associated hardships.
