I haven't watched Band of Brothers or The Pacific because not being a Yankee I assume the flag-waving that Tom Hanks and company would shoehorn in there would not be my cup of tea (could be wrong, let me know).



The flag waving in Band of Brothers wasn't nearly as bad as it was in Saving Private Ryan. Thinking back on way back when I watched Band of Brothers, I don't even remember any flag waving. At least not any purely gratuitous stuff like you had at the end of Private Ryan. But, it's been awhile, I'm sure there was some.

I'll probably check out Pacific based on backdoor's recommendation. But, 1st impression is, "yick, another WW2 show?"
