Im sure it will be sold on DVD later on anyway. Im obsessed with Colonial America History and will definately buy it once it comes out OR I may just re-subscribe to HBO for a month or so.

man.....I just watched the 2nd episode and I gotta say everyone here regardless of political affiliation, especially because its election time, needs to watch this, great acting and the 2nd one, quite moving

We watched them last night, and were really imressed. I thought Paul Giamatti did an excellent job with his accent; which is normally nasal and annoying as hell. I've always liked Laura Linney, and she was good too. I had no idea that Dickinson from Pennsylvania and Rutledge from South Carolina were such chicken-shits, when it came to the idea of declaring independence. They practically make Rutledge out to be a little light in the shoes. David Morse makes a great George Washington; and Tom Wilkinson captures Franklin, in all his sarcastic and snide glory... he's hilarious.
