Is anyone watching this... I've watched the first two episodes, and I'm learning quite a bit... he hasn't even really gotten to the war people mean when they say "Vietnam".

You watching it on Netflix? I think that's where I caught it. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I'm halfway though Episode 5 and it's so fucking depressing... At first, I loved the 1st 3 episodes, but once the shit hits the fan it becomes so personal.

Ken Burns' best work.

I started the first episode last night. I thought I knew a decent amount about the war, but already learned a bunch of stuff. And I can tell it's going to be pretty depressing .

I'm digging the Trent Reznor music so far.

I am watching it and so far it its really good. It gives so far non-bias perspectives on all sides (North VN, South VN and American).

I just finished it. Exhausted. Awesome. Want to watch it again, but I don't have 20 hours.

Boomers- I've loathed them lately; especially with Trump in the world. But those guys got so fucked over by our leaders... who were part of the Greatest Generation. Not so great to their boys.

I'm listening to the WTF podcast episode where Maron interviews Burns and Novick, pretty cool insight.

I definitely confused this with something on Amazon Video - Vietnam In HD.

Now I must watch this new series.

How are you guys watching this (especially those that are streaming the entire series). I can't imagine you all gave PBS money for their "Passport" right?

PBS just paywalled the series on their app.

Not cool.

Finally finished watching. Very well done. Few things/gripes?:

Really wish they would have interviewed someone from russia who saw some of their behind the scenes activities. All we heard was either American or vietnamese.

Felt like they spent too much on the war protest.

Wanted to see more tactical things but that wasnt the point of this docu.
