February 8, 201511 yr Since it was about as historically accurate as Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter I don't think there is much to be offended by. I don't think any show that portrays a 43 year old Sam Adams leading a group of British soldiers on a Captain Jack Sparrow-like chase through the streets and across the rooftops of Boston is meant to be taken seriously.
February 9, 201511 yr All I know is that it was great way to sell a lot of beer. I will shamefully admit that I've had a couple more Sam Adams beers since watching it. Usually don't drink it too often.

February 9, 201511 yr I have it saved on DVR, but have not had the time to watch it. It's entertaining if you understand that very little of it truly happened or happened in the way portrayed.
