12-time Emmy Award winner producer/director Jon Alpert and Matthew O'Neill capture the humanity, hardships and heroism of the US Military and medical personnel of the 86th Combat Support Hospital, the Army's premier medical facility in Iraq. Sometimes graphic in its depiction of combat-related wounds, BAGHDAD ER offers an unflinching and honest account of the realities of war. Premieres Sunday, May 21 at 8pm ET/PT, with a special encore presentation on Memorial Day.

Caught this last night, and it was pretty damn good. Horrible carnage, and it seemed like all the soldiers were reservist, makes you wonder why we have a full time millitary. All those damn IED injuries, almost all of the victims shown.

I tivo'ed it, i will definatley be watching this soon.

caught the ending... was really sad.... is it just that special or a series?

DVR'd it and tried to watch it this afternoon... An excellent inside look... At the mid-way point I actually teared up and had to shut it off for a while. I don't think that has ever happened to me. I applaud HBO for airing this.

I'm surprised more people haven't watched or commented on this special. I DVR'ed it and watched it tonight. Excellent special and something that everyone should see. It's definitely brutal and I had to turn my head several times. The last marine really got to me.

See it.

I'll agree with everyone else. If you don't have HBO, try to find a way to catch this show.

Excellent!

HBO :clap:
