there were several energetic threads here, a while back...
type in JOHN ADAMS and/or HBO into the RPF's search area.

It was a fantastic miniseries, and it really gives the sense of American patriotism, and more importantly, a great appreciation for what the Founders have done for us. It makes you feel like you are living in that time.

Haven't seen it but heard it totally skipped over the alien and sedition act.

I have looked through the Imdb,but those reviews are too short.I want something longer,like this review of Robin Hood:http://reason.com/archives/2010/05/18/a-libertarian-rebel

I wish it had been a lot more detailed and mechanical, but I really loved it (especially when he tells Hamilton off!)
