I was hoping something new about the show had dropped.

Coming in at 80% fresh so far with five reviews on rotten tomatoes.

Yes indeed!

I will be jumping into Normandy this June to commemorate the 80th anniversary of DDay.

Jumping from C47s is a very life enriching behavior.
That's awesome

Great play by Apple TV. So far, I haven't had any interest in their platform.

I was curious about Morning Show and Severance looked interesting, but Band of Brothers, The Pacific, From The Earth To The Moon -- these are some of my favorite shows, so I am very interested to see how this one works out.

Severance, Ted Lasso, Shrinking, and Slow Horses are all great

I personally don't think John Orloff will incorporate ANY wokeness. While yes he is a giant lib-tard, he has a passion for portraying history as it was.

The dude is a genius and does a damn good job at writing material. As others have mentioned, I too think Orloff will tie in the TA men into the Stalag stuff.

As someone who has collected WWII memorabilia since 1996 and actively does static line jumps from old warbirds, I am beyond pumped for this series!
You jump with Rodney R?

Got any German WW2 stuff?

Now at 87% with 15 reviews.

For comparison, BOB was 97% and The Pacific was 91%

Anyone able to find an announcement that states what time on the 26th it becomes available?

I think Apple TV usually release Midnight ET

Episodes on Apple TV usually drop Thursday evening, right at 6 PM Pacific for me, so 8 PM Central.

Is it really a pilot if the entire show is already made?

There's a lot of pilots in that video.

I was tempted to make that joke, but it needed a set up

Unlike most bad airplane jokes, that one actually landed!

I have also really recently enjoyed Bad Sisters. And Trying is a nice feel good follow-up to Ted Lasso (not related, just the vibe).

Yes sir, RRR is a solid dude. We have never jumped together, but he has been my spotter for numerous jumps and has put me on the ground safely each time.

And yes, I have some German stuff, but I'm more into WWII Airborne items.

$5 if you post on TexAgs on the way down to the ground.

I will do my best, but that might not be the safest decision in the world! (Definitely won't be on my phone while under canopy!)

I was wondering about this with RT scores already coming out. With TV shows usually only running 8-10 episodes these days, do reviewers get to watch the whole season or just the first couple before writing reviews and scores?

It's up to the studio. Lately I've seen a lot of reviews based on 5 episodes or so of a series.

RRR and I flew the 767-400 together for 7 years.

Curraheeeeee!

Am I the only one who's geeking out? I've watched the trailer(s) probably 50 times by now.

Is what I'm reading right, this will be dropped at 12am tonight/Friday morning? The first 2 episodes?

Been looking forward to this one for several years ever since I started hearing rumors about it. I just hope it lives up to the first two, which I thought were both excellent.

Not the only one.

Life-long nut about WWII warplanes. One of my earliest heroes was the man who trained my dad when my dad started at Shell Oil, a grizzled old chemist who had been a waist gunner aboard a B-17 in Europe. His first plane is probably still scattered across the bottom of the English Channel when they did not quite make it back from a mission. Wish I had more details about this man (dad called him "Grabo" for Grabowski, but I can't recall what his first name was).

They already dropped the first two. 6pm central time I think.

Just came to post that the first two episodes are already available to view. And….of course I'm off to bed.

This is why I didn't make it through the book.
