We have been waiting for this one for years now, but now
Apple TV Plus has finally decided to bring us their high end World War II series
MASTERS OF THE AIR which is a continuation of the legendary award winning
Band of Brothers
saga. This time it will be the story of the pilots who had to become
masters of the air in order to defeat the enemy planes. Produced again
by
Steven Spielberg the series will launch
January 26th opening the TV season of the new 2024 with two episodes with the rest of the nine part season streaming weekly till mid March! Our dearest

Hazeldine, Bel Powley, and Ncuti Gatwa. Based on
Donald L. Miller’s book the limited series follows the true story of an American bomber group in World War II.
the men of the 100th Bomb Group (the “Bloody Hundredth”) as they
conduct perilous bombing raids over Nazi Germany and grapple with the
frigid conditions, lack
of oxygen, and sheer terror of combat conducted
at 25,000 feet in the air. Portraying the psychological and emotional
price paid by these young men as
they helped destroy the horror of
Hitler’s Third Reich, is at the heart of Masters of the Air. Some were
shot down and captured; some were wounded
or killed. And some were lucky
enough to make it home. Regardless of individual fate, a toll was
exacted on them all. Check out the trailer below and tell us what you think.
We’ll sign up for our free 3 months of Apple TV next month and I’m sure this will be the first on Jason’s list to watch.
ReplyDeleteHope it won't disappoint.
DeleteExquisitely hunky... I knew it!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it not?
DeleteReading the bios of the three main character, all that seem attractive to me is that they were all shot down, one escaped, the other two were imprisoned and one of them escaped. otherwise, it will all be dogfights and they are not as fun to watch as ground battles and raids.
ReplyDeleteAt least we won't be forced to watch their pretty faces squished and bruised.
