David Morse as Washington was even more of a dead ringer. It was as if Washington had come to life.

Please, you Americans have in Barack Obama a man with more integrity than those founding fathers. He will save your pitiful USA.

I watched the first two episodes on DVD.
The production, casting, music, etc. were wonderful. However, it was too pc for me.
Just my opinion.

This is good stuff very well done going through and seeing what our founding fathers were like. It is perfect how they talk about the other family members like Charles being the alcholic, Abigial (the daughter)how they did breast surgery back then by basically chopping her breast off, John Quincy becoming the president later. Very good series 5 stars.

I grew up literally around the corner from the adams' birthplaces (the farm where he teaches john quincy about farming and announces to him that he is going to be a lawyer like himself) the attention to detail is unbelievable. the two houses are absolute replicas of the real ones on franklin st in quincy, ma. ironic that the two houses are situated on "franklin st". the scenery is much different today there is nothing agricultural about it. mcculloch and hanks are genuises!

My family trained two of the teams of oxen used in the movie (milking shorthorn oxen). Their names are Duke and Dan, and Red and Rusty. We got to visit the set in Richmond, VA. Everything looked so realistic. It was an awesome experience!
Just finished ... ( 4 months ago by mortsey)
Just finished watching the series, excellent and well made. I loved the political dialogue in the first few episodes, after that show became less political and a little more melodramatic (family, friends, relationships etc.) Also I found the span of time in the last few episodes a bit confusing. First 3 or 4 took place over 10-12 years last 4 took over 40 years. It was almost hard to follow the chorology. I found myself wishing for a timeline. Those were the only faults I could find in the show.
Alexander Hamilton ... ( 4 months ago by mortsey)
Alexander Hamilton looks like a corrupt and crooked political manipulator pulling the strings behind the scenes in this show. His character is not well developed and therefore it almost seems that only his faults are shown. Hope you are not disapointed. Just the same watch the show, You will not be disapointed with it overall.

What an ABSOLUTELY ... ( 4 months ago by monorail666)
What an ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE tv show this was. Every scene is either Paul Giamatti losing his temper and screaming, or Laura Linney crying over something. John Adams seemed like he needed to be committed to a mental institution, at least in this series.

Also, what was with all the fuzzy shots behind a chair or through a window, that's just poor photography.

John Adams, a unitarian, signed the Treaty of Tripoli. Article 11 stating that "As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions..."

Mcullough's book was really good and I am an admirer of John Adams historically, BUT I was dissapointed in the series mainly because Paul Giammoti, while being a wonderful actor was miscast here. He looked like an italian guy dressed up in a high school play while making funny expressions trying to do an english accent. Others will disagree but it just didn't work for me. I'll have to read more books...

I think I do. It sounds very much like Diem Ex Dei by Globus on their Epicon album (which you can download on iTunes). Also, the song playing just before this cue on the trailer is an incredibly beautiful song called Onward to Freedom by Immediate Music on their Trailerhead album (also on iTunes). Hope this helps. You should look at the music of Corner Stone Cues and Kerry Muzzey as well (all on iTunes).

OK. Now that I've heard it on The Duchess trailer, I'm positive that it is Diem Ex Dei by Globus on their Epicon album--except the Globus version is choral. When you listen to the sample on iTunes, it doesn't sound like the song you are mentioning, but it is. It is a glorious song and well worth the .99 cents.

This is a drama. If you want to discover what happened in the past read vast amounts of history. Only then can you arrive at an idea of the truth. Even then it will only be the truth as filtered through your own prejudices and desires. I was entertained by this drama - but it can never be called history.
