    I watched the first part. Was pretty meh. Not sure if I'll watch the second. It's probably more action packed and entertaining but the first was pretty boring.

    Haven't seen it yet. My dad said historically it was pure garbage though.

    I don't know enough about the Texas Revolution to say. But it's not surprising based off the Sons of Liberty mini series.

    It's a shame how inaccurate these are considering they're on... THE HISTORY CHANNEL

    Well fuck. I just realized this is a 5 parter and not just two nights.


    Still haven't watched part 2, but knowing it's got lore episodes coming makes me think I should give it another go

    well Sons of Liberty was basically funded by the Sam Adams brewing company. (Sam Adams running around Boston like he was the dude from Assassin's Creed.) Idk if Titos Vodka or Shiner Bock is sponsoring this one, but we will see how terrible it is.
