When you get to watch an excellent quality series like John Adams it makes Pay TV worth the price and especially with no ads on Showcase. This series has sent me back to my History books. for further information.
Can’t wait for next weeks episode.
What a horror to have had to put up with Ad’s that seem to arrive almost every 5 minutes in prime time on our free to air TV !

This program is kicking it out of the park! Really wonderfully put together, and loving the no ads, all the better for no interruptions

Wow! I watched the first episode last night and I absolutely agree with your review David. I have always been a fan of Paul Giamatti’s work and this would have to be one of his greatest performances.

Oh, and I’m glad it wasn’t shown on one of the commercial stations. Watching this on Showcase completely uninterrupted added to experience.

Mini series are great – but should never be shown on a sunday night (continued monday) coz anyone who has to work always falls asleep half way through…

These are the type of shows that are made for cable tv – quality stuff.

Any chance one of the Commercial FTA channels might screen this, sometime in 2009? I also don’t have pay-tv.

Wish this were on FTA would love to see it.

I never got into the american ones but I miss the golden days of the oz mini series. Loved The Dismissal,Bodyline & For The Term Of His Natural Life among many others.
