FREEDOM, WILL REIGN, IN AMERICA

So the new mini-series John Adams premiered tonight.

Part 1 premiered tonight, and so far, I'm impressed by Paul Giamatti, as always (I didn't see Lady In the Water).

Anybody else see this?

    But I have seen 1776 and no one can replace the John Adams in that. Played by Mr. Feeny from Boy Meets World and Kit from Knight Rider

    what I really like about this production is that it's incredibly historically accurate

    After reading this for my AP US History class, I will never touch another piece of John Adams related material. It was so goddamn boring.

    Giamatti's performance in The Illusionist would have made the film watchable even if it didn't also have Edward Norton being awesome.

    The Founding Fathers are awesome.

    John Adams is a giant dick, basically. And Ben Franklin is a pimp.

    And yes 1776 is the best historical film ever.
