edchombeau After reading Bill O'Reilly's ; "Killing England" ; now seeing this TV series for the first time on NETFLIX; is a wonderful compliment to the historically written recreations of our Revolution. I recomment Both for those who like history recreated like ittrally was. Being of French ancestry; I've also studied how Ben Franklin, in Paris, at every good news opportunity , got King Louie to send his Navy and troops to turn the"tides of war" over for a victory for the Patriots . I'm sure there will be a movie on good ol Ben Franklin!And Lafeyyete.
Ian (Flash Review)This show picks up the battles after America declared its independence. You are given the neat perspective of the spies who work on behalf of George Washington the General and how some serious old school spying was done. A far cry from the high tech world of James Bond. The show is highly realistic and authentic to the period. There are lots of characters to keep straight and keep track of, which requires focus and/or rewatching a few scenes twice to catch everything. It is entertaining and the editing mixes up crisp and eloquent dialog, with some battles, subtle spying, a dash of romance and some bloody moments. Very enjoyable yet requires astute focus.
stutz-236-637453 Its the American Revolution and the need for information is one of the most important commodities...I love this series. its 3 seasons, and I wish there were more. The acting is great, the history is spot on... I can't say enough of this. I have told everyone I know about TURN.I will add , it is helpful to know your history about "Redcoats" (English), "Torys" (English sympathizers) , and of course the "Rebels" (the colonists )the setting in on Long Island, Conn, and New Jersey, New York City and West Point. Factual to some degree. ENJOY.
karen_oreilly This is why this is doomed to be canceled by AMC. They want cheap content they can churn out for a year or two until it becomes too expensive for their cheap budgets. Once a series is a success, Actors demand higher salaries cutting into AMC's profit margin.This is why they will write off the 2017 season so they can kill off characters, end the war and be done with this good series and onto a new one with a lot less production expenses, salaries and overhead.They can churn out more crap fodder most of us won't watch...other than Better Call Saul and The Son, which look promising. The Son is a bit clichéd though.
