Editorial Reviews

From producer Steven Bochco ("NYPD Blue," "L.A. Law," "Hill Street Blues") comes the first scripted television series set in a current, ongoing war involving the United States. Gritty, intense, evocative and emotional, "Over There" takes you to the front lines of battle and explores the effects of war on a U.S. Army unit sent to Iraq on their first tour of duty, as well as the equally powerful effects felt at home by their families and loved ones.

A must-see show for all Americans, "Over There" is not about politics or policies. It's a true-to-life depiction of our courageous soldiers—the everyday heroes who fight for freedom under extraordinary conditions.

Includes an exclusive behind the scenes featurette!

Well i am in the army and just returned from over there where i spent 16 months fighting on the streets of iraq. This movie is extremly accurate. It shows the way things really were, and it shows what we really went through over there. So take it from me an operation iraqi freedom veteran who was there and have some storys of my own, watch this show and support YOUR troops.

I got back 6 months ago from "Over There" and from what I have seen this show is a very realistic depiction of what it's like(accept that their camel back always seem to be empty, lol). I haven't missed an episode and don't plan on it. Highly Recommended!
