‘Generation Kill’ follows the highly trained Marines of First Recon Battalion through the first 40 days of the Iraq war. The seven-part miniseries portrays the true story of the young Marines’ experience at the tip of the spear of the American invasion, as they contend with equipment shortages, incompetent commanding officers, ever evolving Rules of Engagement and an unclear strategy. [via HBO]

Our Take: If you’ve ever known the duress of working in a chaotic environment then you know only a hundredth of what a First Recon Marine must face. Get the gripping (and gritty) miniseries onto your DVR, now. Read more about the show here. Sundays @ 9pm.

If any of you men know much about automobiles then you’ve probably heard of Top Gear. BBC’s take on auto reviews, in television format. Not just a regular television show though, an incredible program with Hollywood blockbuster production levels.

Undoubtedly, it’s co-host and anchor, Jeremy Clarkson that brings much of the show’s panache. His DVD, Clarkson: Heaven and Hell brings you his critical review of the best and worst cars in the automotive world with Clarkson’s signature sarcasm, wit and outstanding commentary.

Cost: $17 @ BBC America Shop

Father’s Day is this Sunday, June 15th. Arguably the most important man, nay person, in your life is worthy of some thought and consideration. Whether your father’s the grill maven or a speed demon we’ve got great gift ideas for dad this year.
