Julie in Slidell, La.: Is it just me, or is Life better than ever this year? What’s coming down the pike?

Anyway, in an upcoming episode we learn more about Crews’ time in prison through a couple of his friends who are still there, including a behemoth of a man who agrees to look out for a second friend who is being harassed by crack addicts.

In The Deadbolt interview mentioned above, Damian Lewis had this to say about the long-term affects of starring in Band of Brothers:
-
“Yes, I’m still convincing people I didn’t win the second World War. It can be quite overwhelming. But I mean, yes, what a privilege to have been involved in telling that story. I’ve said before I was slow to realize the enormity of the [scope] and the importance of the project and of the story and the task in hand to represent those guys well and responsibly.
“So having committed to it like that with thirty other guys, we kind of developed our own band of brothers. And those guys are good friends and we got married together and had children together over the last seven, eight years and we all hang out together.
