Yeah, I think I’m in as well.
I’ll also watch some of the great movies about that era:
The Patriot
John Paul Jones
The Devil’s Disciple
The Scarlet Coat
1776
The Howards of Virginia

Every year! Good series.

Is this exclusive to HBO?

Might start this weekend. It's always on my list to watch around the holiday. That and The Sandlot.

Of course, but I usually don’t go past Washington’s inauguration because I feel like the show, while still really good, loses its steam after the revolution.

Thanks for reminding me about this series. Totally forgot about it.

I lose interest when it starts to become medically accurate with gross depictions of ailments. lol.

I watch 1776 and FF thu the songs

I alternate every year between this and a lesser known, but very well done, 3-part series called “The Sons of Liberty”. It was on the History Channel about 8 years ago maybe dnd I just think it’s well written and acted. Try it out!

You do realize that the movie was based on the book and was historically accurate?

John Paul Jones
quote:amusing dialogue, great performance by Olivier
The Devil’s Disciple
quote:ehhh... Nice locations, but not much as drama. I'd love to see the Benedict Arnold story done as a miniseries. He had a hot, slutty wife -- imagine what they could do with that...
The Scarlet Coat
quote:poorly directed and mediocre songs, but great dialogue by Peter Stone.
1776
quote:This is actually pretty bad, as is Allegheny Uprising. The great Drums Along The Mohawk is technically an AR movie, but is mostly about fighting Indians
The Howards of Virginia

Molasses to Rum is great
But that song is a masterpiece compared to "Does Anybody Care?" and "Mama Look Sharp", 2 of the cringily cringiest cringers in the history of the musical theatre,

What makes it great is the accuracy. Everyone profited from the slave trade.
