Yep. Watched all three episodes.. I wonder if Sam Adams really had that much to do with it or not?. But now I know why John Hancock is a financial services group and Sam Adams is a beer company.. :D :D :D.

It makes want to dig into each person a little more to understand how involved they really were..

Anyone think the commercials seemed longer than the show intervals? I did. Felt like they strung two commercial segs in b/w each part.

Watched all three episodes just because it was pretty good. It was definitely not historically accurate. Looked like since Sam Adams beer was the sponsor that they made him look like Jason Bourne. In real life he was in his 40's with grey hair and was more of a scholar than a fighter.

I enjoyed the series, since it wasn't historically accurate, they may as well have killed off general Gauge in a bloody finale. Just saying...
