Default "Generation Kill"

"Generation Kill" watched the 1st + 2nd episodes, and it has to be the best TV series in a long time, up there with "Dexter".

("Heavy" footage and language, you have been warned)

Watched it a couple of month ago & really enjoyed it.

Surprisingly it shows some of the mistakes the americans made, not just portraying them as conquering heros like most american series & movies do.

FX advertise it as part of their autumn schedule, but I couldn't find any indication of a start date.

FX and the sorts can be hard to keep up with, either they repeat like hell or they breeze through the show..............

Had a further search around and seems it won't be on FX until sometime in January.

Could be because they've just started showing Breaking Bad and Burn Notice now Dexter's finished.

Burn Notice isnt a bad series either, took me ages to realise the bird in it was in pres sgang years ago, knew i recognised her form somewhere.

Breaking bad is quite good aswell.

Been waiting for Generation kill for a while now.I need my fix after 'The Wire' finished.
If no one has seen it,look it up-worth the investment in time(IMO!).
Checking out the new JJ Abrams show -Fringe at the mo.A bit like X files at the mo...
