Mail Call!

I just wanted to give some props to one of the best darn shows on TV. I personally can't think of a better premise for a show than R Lee Ermey talking about weapons.

Hoo-Rah!

One of my favorite shows on TV: you can almost see the glee in his eyes when he was firing off a jeep mounted Browning 30 cal ;)

Just want to throw in "Conquest" as being an excellent companion show.

Almost? Anytime Gunny gets ANY aimable weapon in his hands he lights up like a kid. My fave is when he fired off the tripod mounted Ma Duce in camp. Death to watermelons! Semper Fi!

I'm a huge fan of the show (easily one of the FUNNIEST and, gulp, educational shows on TV) and asked R. Lee about it in my recent interview.

I just started watching this show a few weeks ago after setting the TiVo and I love it! :)

Great vehicle for the Gunny to do what he loves best. :thumbsup:

Wow, that interview was a fun read:
- I've never bothered watching the first Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but will definitely check out the remake to see what kind of pervert he'll make ;)
- Glad to hear they're going to make another 26 episodes of Mail Call. Damn, that made my day :)

Thought it's worth noting here that I'm giving away five of the new Mail Call: Best of Season One DVDs (seven episodes plus promos) ...
