Almost SideShow: Band of Brothers Episode 10 - Points

 On the season finale of our first Almost Sideways SideShow, Terry and Adam dive into the final episode of Band of Brothers.  What do you get when you have a bunch of soldiers with no one to fight, too much time on their hands, and an excess of alcohol?  We discuss the lives each member of Easy Company lived after the war and the moving tribute to these men that this show was.  We finish this episode by giving our rankings of the 10 episodes of Band of Brothers from worst to first.

Almost SideShow: Band of Brothers Episode 8 - The Last Patrol

 On this episode of the Almost Sideways SideShow, we dive into Episode 8 of Band of Brothers and see Easy Company in Hagenau.  We talk about the change in mindset of the soldiers as they start to see the end of the war in sight, and we look at how an original member of Easy was ostracized simply because he was injured and hadn't just experienced the winter in Bastogne.  Oh yeah, and Colin Hanks!

Almost SideShow: Band of Brothers Episode 7 - The Turning Point

 On this episode of the Almost Sideways SideShow, Easy Company attacks Foy in the bloodiest battle so far.  Many people we have come to know and love don't make it through the episode, while one we have come to hate gets relieved.  All of this is seen through the eyes of Lipton.
