I love it. I pretty much prefer to binge watch just about everything but couldn't wait on this.

If you ever get a chance to visit West Point, take a trip to the old cadet chapel, the only remaining original building left.

It no longer sits in its initial place and now occupies the entrance to the WP cemetery. There, you'll find all the superintendent/commanders plaques that are posted after each retires. Cadets had the name on the plaque scrapped off and now all you can read is MGEN followed by a blank (where the name Arnold used to be)...a very cool artifact of history.

Arnold, who commanded WP had the most prominent fortification at WP named after him...now called the Clinton lot after revolutionary hero and NY governor George Clinton.

****, I didn't know season 4 had started. Time to binge!

This is an excellent show, thought there would be more discussion about it. Simcoe is a great villain, reminds me of the Swede in Hell on Wheels, just won't die. Can't wait to see the last two episodes. Wonder if Washington was so obsessed by taking New York in real life.

I'll be honest, I'm waiting for it to hit Netflix at this point.

I think it may have been on Amazon last go round.

Just watched the latest episode - probably one of my favorites of the entire series.

Netflix has all three seasons up.

Simcoe's line about desertion in front of Benedict Arnold was hilarious.

Get your knees dirty during casting call?




I kid, I kid

It's a wonderful hobby. Yall would like it.

Enjoyed the finale, particularly the portrayal of Washington.

Damn... that ending had me feeling choked up and patriotic all at once.

Me too, great ending to a great show.

Great show! I'm disappointed it had to end after only 5 seasons.

Rarely do I ever get choked up over a show, but that did it.

What an ending. One of my all time favorite shows.

Just binged and already at season 3 thanks to this thread well worth it

Great show - loved it all the way through. Simcoe was a powerful villain, a true madman. Feels like they pulled most of his character personality from Col. Tavington in The Patriot - probably why it was so easy to hate him from the jump.

You know, it's an ugly business doing one's duty... but just occasionally it's a real pleasure.

We tried to buy one of the whale boats from the show but it didn't work out.

Season 5 just dropped on Netflix and I'm probably going to watch it alll now.

Simcoe makes me hate Canadians so much.

So much.

That execution scene

I kept thinking he was just gonna call it off

Last episode was so-so until the very end.

And had me all choked up.

so Abigail just got screwed over? Wonder if that's a real person, or they just didn't want to end everything on a positive note.

Her code name was really used, but it was never discovered who used it. On the show, she made it to Canada (I think into Simcoe's province)
