At 81 years old (born 1942) I'm younger than the characters portrayed (a WW II vet in 1950's to '80's) - but can relate. In 1954, with the Army-McCarthy hearings being broadcast on all 3 networks (that's all we had in those days) at 12 yrs. Old, the young question is - "why are we fighting amongst ourselves " and why can't we get regular programming? (and "why are they after me ?"- even then I knew I wasn't attracted to the opposite sex). So - many years later -having survived, thru those years that you could be arrested for being gay - until now - and having Matt Bomer and Jonathan Bailey bring to life those years - well - that's extraordinary. Thank you! You can quibble about production values, acting (all great), factual accuracy (and I did), but overall - it was great. I've seen all episodes - some good, some great (2nd to last) - wow. Thanks Matt Bomer (always loved you since "Chuck" and especially "White Collar") - but I also have a new love - Jonathan Bailey. Let's have some wine.
