I saw one of the series last night, where they were voting on independence..

I like the acting very very much, the sets are wonderful, there certainly is a wonderful realism + dialogue.

...+ I had no idea that while John Adams was fighting to create our country, that his family was home fighting smallpox. (Talk about a sacrifice).. The bit when they were first reading Thomas Jeffersons declaration really choked me up.

Much like Band of Brothers, and From the Earth to the Moon, it looks like Tom Hanks and HBO have not only another winner, but another very important peek into history.
