The series was pretty good, though the characters weren't developed very well, and many of them blended into each other.

The last episode was the absolute worst, wherein the Americans turn into a bunch of thieving murderous drunks, and they all come to realize that the Nazi soldiers were just like us.

The fight scenes were excellent and many of the actors (particularly the guys who played Winters and Nixon) were excellent. But some of the casting was downright bizarre. I mean, if you were going to make a movie about warriors would you choose a member of New Kids on the Block, the guy who does "Weekend Update" on Saturday Night Live, and David Schwimmer?!?!

Overall, I give it a "B". Nowhere near as good as "The Sopranos" but miles better than "West Wing".

Here's an interesting piece of trivia: The actor who played Winters is an Englishman by the name of Damian Lewis. He went to the prestigious Eton college in England (the same school where Princes William and Harry attend).
