A Must Watch: John Adams

I don't have cable. Heck, I don't have a television. So I often miss out on cool things to watch - at least when everyone else is watching them. I was recently told about the HBO miniseries, John Adams, staring Paul Giamatti. I've since watched half the episodes and have been quite moved by Paul's portrayal of Adams and, to be honest, the entire cast is quite fabulous.

I have been most intrigued by the part of Thomas Jefferson in this series. Mr. Jefferson has been an interest of mine for some time now - especially since my discovery of the Thomas Jefferson Hour. It was interesting to see him portrayed as well, frankly, aloof and somewhat self-centered. I've yet to see the series Jefferson, but am pretty curious about it.

Oh and in my wanderings online, I found these two interesting trailers!
