I cry every time I watch this series. The bravest of the brave, what they did for us.

@cbizrap I don't know about ideals you say you have lost but mine are intact. John Adans is my 7th cousin, Washington is 2nd. Many famous Americans are somehow related to our family, and we have fought in ever single war going back 400 years. A line unbroken of military service to 1607/1620.We have never given up our ideals and we still belive in our country. Neighbor,how stands the Union?" you better answer the Union stands as she stood, rock-bottomed and copper-sheathed, one and indivisible!!

@cbizrap They saw in the Europe of their day what America could become in the future, and created the Constitution, state's rights, and separation of powers. All of which were perverted by demagogues on both sides of the aisle. Now we are the Europe we fears to become. The Fathers are turning in their grave.

@forman1200 well now that bin laden is dead, perhaps we can get some of our civil liberties back? Just saying. And to me Laura Linney is the ideal wife.

@cbizrap They do exist, just very hidden by disgusting cultural forces. That being said, I am in love with Laura Linney.

I think some people are missing the point of this series. It's about an unsung hero who defied an empire to create the USA- and keep a family together. Remember, throwing terms like "liberals" around is idiotic, because political terms had different meanings at this time. If anything, the differences Adams had with Congress during his Vice Presidency are meant to mirror the political discordances of today.
This is one of the finest mini-series I've ever seen.Great news that they both won Golden Globes.Well deserved.Also Tom Wilkinson as Benjamin Franklin won too.John Adams's name is not well known in the U.K. so it was interesting to see the role he played in the creation of the USA.

America back then was to be a great country where everyone would be free. Even to this day that goal hasn't been met. There is still Prejudice and hate groups. America was NOT founded by the White man. America was founded by the Germans, Spaniards, French, Englishmen, Scotish, Danish. Ammrica was founded by many nations. Why can't groups like the KKK understand that? America was also founded by Catholics which the KKK despise. America was founded for everyone. America may meet it's goal one day.
