You don't compare Band of Brothers with Generation Kill, both were great (having read One Bullet Away and Generation kill), but not the same at all. Regardless, this is my opinion and from what I have seen, it looks to be an amazing show.

Was about to type the same thing. After the first episode I think that Pacific can stand on it's own. I'm sure the series will be excellent.
