I actually started with Band of Brothers about a month ago and then watched The Pacific. Berger's remake of AQotWF is, as you already commented, phenomenal.
Was watching The Pacific for the first time this weekend, some pipe smoking shots from that series. Took the dog for a walk earlier, had a bowl of SPC's Deception Pass in a lumberman.
I had a bowl of And so to bed in a Castello pot... the irony being that it is 4:30 in the morning as I post this, and it doesn't matter that I went "to bed" because I haven't had insomnia this bad since I was in my early 40s.
