Re: 'John Adams' HBO Miniseries

He does then go on to say that "it's not about looks," but "screen presence." Not sure what he's talking about but I only saw the first hour.

Yeah, I read the review and thought: did Giamani kick him down a flight of stairs somewhere?

Because (being a history major) I thought he was damn near dead on casting; he may be a touch to "pretty" for how people of the time period really were, but he much more closely matches the way I would perceive of John Adams based of all we know in comparison to almost any other major actor I can think of. I have been really pleased with his subtle, open performance that I think very well captures John Adams.

Very solid series. Has "EMMY" written all over it.
