Hey guys. I dont know if this subject has been talked about lately...but do any of you guys remember watching Tour of Duty back in the day? I remember all of us neighborhood kids couldnt wait to watch it every week....then we would get together and talk about about it the next day..recreate scenes...with GI JOE or just playing around.
Anyway, I discovered it on DVD last week and I wasnt sure what to expect because it was 20+ years old. I just got through season one and man, this show is STILL bad@ss! It gets kinda dramatic at points...and I think the soundtrack is different...but I love it. Im defintely looking into getting some more episodes. Sgt. character on that show is defintely my favorite. What do you guys think? |

I loved the show. I think it lasted two seasons? I don't remember. Wasn't the theme for the show Paint It Black by The Stones?

I don't remember very much about it, but I remember watching it regularly with my dad when I was a kid, and liking it, so it's a show that I'll likely revisit on DVD some day.

I watched that show when History reran it up here (couple of years ago). Good show.

Great show and none of us missed it in our neighborhood as well! We would dress up and play as our favorite characters.

Great show and way ahead of its time for network television of the late 80s and early 90s. A few years later and it would have made a perfect HBO series.
