S1 E1
S1E1, "Currahee": The men of Easy Company go through tough training under a harsh officer as they prepare for war. Intense, disciplined, and gripping. Good for learners because much of the dialogue is clear and repetitive, with everyday chunks around giving orders, training, and motivation, in a direct, military tone.
