There’s one tradition I keep every year. When June 6 arrives — the anniversary of D-Day, when Allied forces stormed the beaches of northern France in 1944 — I revisit what I believe is the finest television ever made: Band of Brothers. The 10-part HBO miniseries, released in 2001, remains as powerful today as the first time I saw it.

What makes this ritual meaningful is not that the story changes, but that I do.
