That's rather ironic.  I knew exactly what you were talking about, but not due to John, it was due to Donnie Wahlberg, who played the role of Carwood Lipton in Band of Brothers, I was/am obsessed with that series, and everyone in it.   Heh, I didn't give it a chance though, I just remember somehow getting wind of it due to Wahlberg's involvement.

I regret never seeing BOB. I saw one episode with David Schwimmer in it. Wad as good as I'd heard. It was mid stream during a marathon on HBO, and I never followed through on my plans to watch the series. Someday hopefully.

It's an absolutely fantastic series, and there are only 2 episodes w/ David Schwimmer in them.  So you either saw the beginning, or near the very end of the war from their perspective.  I own both DVD and Blu Ray boxsets, and have read books by Webster, and Winters' Biography.  As well as the Ambrose book.  So yeah, I was pretty obsessed with that series. haha.   Also, several of the sites you see throughout BoB, are in Call of Duty 1 and 2 (Carentan and Foy, for example).   I used to watch BoB, once a month :)
