Memorial Day began in Charleston by black veterans? Are you kidding me? This is a first. Who thought of this? What nonsense. Sadly, this was a great series that succumbed to the liberal demand of assigning slavery as a motive for the start of the civil war which in patent nonsense. All in all a good program, but give me a break on the slavery thing as a catalyst to the war. The abolishment of slavery was an unintended consequence of the war, a good one, but had nothing to to do with why it began. Agenda history took over an otherwise good intent. Readers/ viewers should investigate and research the Buchanan tax laws that increased the levies on Southern deep water ports which Lincoln signed into law which prompted southern secession, and his ensuing instructions to blockade those ports, which were the first hostile acts that resulted in the outbreak of the war. But, the black Memorial Day thing is nothing short of hilarious.

Are you kidding me?

My wife and I were huge fans of Spader in Boston Legal and The practice, so we were hopeful that this would be a series that we could anticipate and enjoy. About 10 minutes into episode one we started laughing, so unauthentic and trite was the dialogue and over all genuine feel for the reality of this show. My wife could not contain herself, and she watches Lifetime and Hallmark for God's sake! If you think Bones is ludicrous, then take about 10 minute for this nonsense. What a shame that Spader had made his comeback in such a nonsensical show as this. Do not waste your time. Watch HGN instead. Really, such writing and slapstick is a real let down. There was obviously no consultation with military or intelligence people for an authenticity review. It was just plain bad.
