Classic Joseph Heller novel is being re done for television in this six part tv series that brings us back to WWII times exploring adventures and misadventures of Yossarian and his friends as American bomber crews in the heat of World War Two. What I love about this series is that all six episodes are greatly even written, there is absolutely no filler episodes and no boring parts that so many series have while you wait for the main storyline to come about. Well, Yossarian only wants to survive and come home again and finish the number of missions that Col. Cathcart only elevates all the time. He manages to fake sickness, get shot in testicles, survive jumping out of the plane, shagging General Scheisskopf s wife, lose friends and tries to stay sane in the horrors of war. Cast is excellent from Christopher Abbot as Yossarian to veterans like George Clooney, Hugh Laurie and Giancarlo Giannini. Best of all are characters. So many different colorful characters like Major Major Major Major to bootlegger Milo and dialogue is full of humor but serious at the same time and I love every single minute watching this series. Unfortunately I didn t read the book, but this series was a blast. I will also have to see the older movie with the same title anytime soon. Great one if you love war themed series!
