Please vote for my next Patreon exclusive TV Show!

PLEASE READ THE NEXT PARAGRAPH BEFORE VOTING

All of the options are only 1 season in length. My goal in 2025 is to have one TV Episode go up per day (Monday-Friday). I'm not sure if I'll be able to manage that so I want to test it with a shorter show first before I begin a show that is multi season. (Don't worry I'll get to those eventually!)

Poll closes on Monday at noon eastern!

Will you react to The Last Of Us season 2 ?? It's coming up April

Scott Clark

Chernobyl without question. Not only is it one of the greatest mini series of all time, but it came at a time right when Game of Thrones completed its disappointing run. It was such a a breath of fresh air and was honestly amazing. Edit: Additionally, I think it would be a nice break from Band of Brothers. Watching The Pacific back to back with BoB will invite more comparisons between the two, and it should really be watched on it's own merits. Edit edit: AND since Chernobyl is only 5 episodes it would be a perfect test to see if 1 episode per day is feesible.

Julian Ortiz

Sorry I would have to pass on these not really into tv show

Tim C

Woo! Firefly has 100% of the vote! That might be because it shows me as the only one to vote so far, but I'll take it! 😄

Julian Ortiz

Cool ill wait for the movies.

Kevin Hooper

Chernobyl has my vote. It is excellent but very heavy.

Larry Darrell

The Pacific for me. I’m still in WWII mode. If some prefer a break… Then gotta go with True Detective. The Greatest Single Season of TV ever. I personally wouldn’t recommend The Watchmen. Sorry.

Farbod

I think Chernobyl is overrated. Firefly is super fun and TD1 is maybe the best single season of TV ever made.

Rhys

The Last of Us would be awesome, since season two is coming up. It's a strong first season so definitely worth your time imo.

Baldemort

Chernobyl is good but there is some disinformation about how radiation affects people in it. It can make the show come off as fear mongering about nuclear energy. So its important to dodge the more false information put in the show played up for dramatic purposes. I got family on both sides who worked in nuclear energy in the 80s during this time, then who watched the show but had major criticisms about how it can come off as political grand standing to spread fear to people who dont know anything about nuclear energy. Overall a great show from a production standpoint but from a true story stand point, there is quite a bit of disinformation. My vote goes to The Pacific. I wont vote for firefly as that show got cancelled and has terrible non cohesive writing. I dont understand why people are so attached to it in the reaction space other than its just a the trendy thing to vote for.

E

The Pacific is the choice after Band of Brothers for sure. But Chernobyl is also nice

Diiirk706

True Detective Season One, is the only good thing on planet earth. That is all.

Rain97

How the hell is true detective fourth in polling?

Baldemort

For multi seasonal shows. I want to request one of the highest rated shows of all time "Breaking Bad" If you have not already seen it?

Baldemort

Dont write off Masters of the Air if it dont win this poll. It should be watched AFTER the pacific as its the 3rd series in the Band of brothers saga which is why people are not voting for it over Pacific. The Pacifc BTW does have veteran interviews too but they are not attached to the episodes. You can find each interview on HBO max as a separate short clip to watch under each episode. The music in the Pacific is even better than in band of brothers. Our man Hanz Zimmer went to work.

Brad

Please watch The Pacific asap because you totally understand and care about what the people of the time and all of us who’ve served since because they and we love this country and will die for it no matter what

Wil Castillo

Breaking Bad is really good!

Dan M

I’ve only seen two of these series, The Pacific and Masters of the Air. I’m not really into tv series as much as I used to be. The last series that really held my attention to the end was Manifest. It’s very much like Lost, which I think I’ve heard you reference before. And if you liked Lost, you’d like this series. Something to consider perhaps for your next tv series poll. So, of the two that I’ve seen, The Pacific is definitely the better one. And it kind of makes sense to follow up BoB with this series. But I’m willing to give any of the others I haven’t seen a shot should they win.

TeeZee22

After being recommended by Mr. Lite, I just recently finished Masters of the Air and enjoyed it a lot. Doesn't look like it will win the poll, but I hope you watch it some time. I think you will like it a lot also!

George Roybal

I couldn't get past episode 2 of the Pacific. Highly inferior to BoB. Firefly is epic and has been reacted by multiple reactors who all praised it as one of the best ever. The Cast made up of big stars before they were big.

LiteWeight Gaming / Reacting

That all makes sense and I respect that! Don’t worry! There will still be plenty of movie movies as well! Hoping for 2-3 per week moving forward!

Baldemort

Lmfao the pacifc is literally rated way higher than firefly and won more awards. FIrely won no awards and was cancelled.

Ashley

Bruh trying to compare Firefly which has a longstanding dedicated fanbase to The Pacific which is a brutal watch and has none of the charm of BoB.

E

For sure for sure!

LiteWeight Gaming / Reacting

Really need to finish season 1! Watched the first two episodes when it first came out but didn’t finish it! I attended an event in NYC which showed the first two episodes.

TeeZee22

Yes, I had to thank him for telling me about it because I had never heard of it until he told me about it. It was really good and historically accurate!

2026-09-30 13:00 I would love for Firefly to win, one of my favorite shows of all time for sure. Its okay if The Pacific wins but I cant bring myself to rewatch it because of how brutal the violence and how it just lacks the connective tissue that really makes BoB shine.
2025-02-09 04:33

Lukas

Really? are are going to finish? It would be super popular, The Last Of Us HBO was massive. I recently watched your playthroughs of Last Of Us 1 (ps4) and The Last OF US 2. It was amazing. So you really haven't even seen episode 3 of season 1 ?? You could react to season 1 next month as a "lead up" or "leading into" season 2 in April. It would be SO EPIC

samcro92

The Pacific is so underrated. It gets a little bit of hate because it was made by the same people who made band of brothers so naturally it gets compared, and in that comparison it will always lose. But if you put band of brothers out of your mind and appreciate the Pacific for what it is, you'll understand very quickly that it's another masterpiece from Spielberg, hanks and HBO. Also it looks like chernobyl is winning the poll, if it does you should brace yourself! It's another masterpiece and very important story in our history, but it will shake you to your core...

Chris

BoB -> All-timer Pacific -> Outstanding Masters of the Air -> Pretty good Personally I voted for Firefly for a change of pace--worth coming back to The Pacific after a break though. Chernobyl was right there too. No shots at Watchmen, it was also great.

Dan M

Totally agree with you about Hans Zimmer’s score for The Pacific. Breathtaking.

Baldemort

@ashley The Pacific isn't meant to have that "charm" of BoB. Its an entirely different show with entirely different strengths to BoB. None the less follows a true story of real soldiers. The Pacifc shows the actual brutality and mental toll of war such was the Pacific Theatre.

Riggo 82

The only one of these I can't recommend is Watchmen. It's garbage. The movie on the other hand is great. Especially the directors cut.

Baldemort

Pacific was never meant to be like Band of Brothers. This show focuses heavily on the mental and brutal toll of war. None the less a very compelling true story told very well with an entirely different tone than BoB. Each show shines for different reasons.

Baldemort

agreed, it's gets shat on for no reason other than "boo hoo it's not like Band of Brothers" like no shit. Tom Hanks and Spielberg didn't want it to be. Masters of the Air, even more so. Each show has it's own tone to it.

scott osborne

damn it im torn between firefly and pacific but the thing is do i want you to cry your eyes out in every episode of of the pacific or do i want to see you enjoy watching and loving firefly such a hard choice tears or smiles tears or smiles smiles so firefly is the one i chose

Baldemort

Teegan since nobody mentioned it yet. write in your notes to watch "Serenity" movie after Firefly. Since the show got canceled midway through the first season. Several years later after fan backlash, Joss Whedon did a movie to essentially just send the show off into the sunset. Its both a standalone movie and a conclusion to firefly. There will be some continuity issues from the show to the movie but nothing major.

George Roybal

You're talking about different generations. The reason Firefly was canceled had nothing to do with the shows quality. Sorry that I didn't like The Pacific. But disparaging Firefly isn't relevant.

Ashley

they were both produced by spielberg and hanks. I'm not wrong for feeling what I feel. The pacific just lack a certain human factor. You cannot deny that the pacific was a failure.

Alex Gorell

Anything but Chernobyl, which looks like that’s what’s gonna win 😑

Rain97

Chernobyl is the weakest of the bunch, firefly and true detective are miles ahead of everything

FOX 03XX

When watching The Pacific you must watch the version with the historical interviews at the beginning of each episode. Another suggestion is to read Eugene Sledges’ book “With The Old Breed: At Peleliu and Okinawa” it really brings the series into context. The Pacific and European campaigns of WW2 were completely different in the way they were fought and the enemy we fought against. Just my two cents.

Redacted

Awe, but Firefly is so good, funny. Only unfortunate part is only one season

LiteWeight Gaming / Reacting

Well don’t worry it’s only five episodes which means I can have it done in a week if I can stick to the schedule I want!

ShadowKnight

The Pacific without second thoughts, but looks like it ain't winning this one. Trust me when and if you'll get to it eventually , you gonna miss episodes 6 & 7 of Band of Brothers, it's MUCH more overwhelming than BoB, i really don't understand the comparison people make that: "Oh Band of Brothers is better, the pacific doesn't have any charm in it!" that is whole point, it wasn't meant to be charming and it's not here to comfort you it's here to do the complete opposite , and to show the difference of the warfare between the western european theatre and the pacific theatre of WWII. But with all that being said, whatever if someone prefer BoB over it then it's more than fine by me, they entitled to their own opinion, TV series and movies are a matter of taste after all.

Baldemort

agreed 100% the pacific is a masterpiece in whole different ways to band of brothers. They are all amazing shows.

ViolatedGorilla

I voted Firefly with True Detective S1 a close second. I wish your tear ducts a rest.

ShadowKnight

Pretty much, and in addition if I already mentioned the comparison people make in which BoB is the "better" one I actually found the Main Title Theme of Hans Zimmer of The Pacific more pleasing to my ears.

Apollo838

Looking forward to these! Pacific most of all:)

2026-09-30 13:00 I'm surprised Chernobyl is so popular. Its not historically accurate and actually contains some pretty dangerous disinformation.
2025-02-09 21:22

BläTäN

I hope the Pacific get a watch through eventually. After BoB, The Pacific is the next go to thing to keep with theme and all the rest. As for Chernobyl, I will unfortunately be giving this a hard miss. There are too many inaccuracies, and some rather 'iffy' views for my liking. The truth of Chernobyl is far more hard hitting, it never needed a show to make things up, it was horrendous enough.

Baldemort

"I didnt like the show therefore nobody else liked it, it was a failure" It was far from a failure. Literally what you said is objectively false. You can feel what you feel is another thing, but dont turn around and say the show was a failure just because YOU didnt like it. Its objectively a very successful show with high ratings and great reviews from most people who have seen it. Learn the difference between your subjective opinion and objective reality. Its nobody else's problem but yours that you cant understand why people love The Pacific :)

John Manke

true detective season one is iconic 💪

MoulinNoir

no shade to the rest but personally i've got Firefly in my sights - I can't imagine only a single one of these illustrious titles will be watched, so it feels to me like patience is going to pair nicely with hope on this one

Chris

There are a few people on here saying Chernobyl is inaccurate--my impression is that yes, they juiced a few things for dramatic effect, and obviously condensed things quite a bit... but that generally they got it right. Genuinely curious what is the dangerous disinformation?

PHILLIP CORNISH

I've been there and learned all about the history. This is pretty much spot on with a few miner details. It can be said that you will never know the real facts from the USSR but this was about the people who exposed the government to fix all RBKM reactors in the USSR.

Baldemort

The inaccurate information is mostly due to how radiation affects people. This show portrays radiation spreading from persons to person like a virus if you get close to them. Right now it's hard to explain without spoiling the show for Teegan but there are quite a few things that this show puts in to make it seem like fear mongering more than objective truth to the incident. I had family who worked in nuclear energy in the 80s when this happened.

Chris

I guess I just don't mind that too much, or see it as really essential to the core point of the show. To my mind the show is about a particular type of governmental ideology (late-USSR in this case, but one can find other analogues) way more than it's about nuclear energy.

Clay F

I am glad that Chernobyl won (not a huge commitment b/c only 5 episodes). Compelling series. IMDb 9.3. Won Emmy for Outstanding Limited Series. Chernobyl is not a documentary. Chernobyl is generally accurate with some dramatic license, as is typically done with content based on a true story. Very much looking forward to your reaction to Chernobyl. My next two choices are The Pacific and TD S1, both stunning.

Clay F

I am glad that Firefly didn't win -- hasn't aged well to me, but I do like the charisma of the Nathan Fillion character.

Clay F

I like The Expanse better.
