for everyone who says this show is fictitious how do you know the type of dialect that was used in colonial times in Boston for sure,or even the extent of details as to how events truly went down.Not one of you who writes these reviews was around then and most of you base your so called knowledge of how events went down in our countries history on school text books filled with misinterpreted information and fictitious history as well even propagandist at times.Which so many of you have been repetitively been taught to believe.Stop being so naive,This show is just another interpretation of how events might have gone down,with it's own little twist to it.You cant completely fit every event that shaped our history into a mini series hence (mini).It's going to be fast pace and yes this version is written and directed towards the younger crowd.I found it different and interesting as well as entertaining.History channel is still one of the best channels we have. Don't knock it for trying to educate a younger generation that has very little interest in our founding fathers.For those of you read this remember for every bad review there are as many good ones.Watch and be your own judge
