Point of Honor

I was amused while watching it. I think the clothes, the landscape, the buildings were really good, just how I would imagine them to be in this age. I loved the story, the characters. The actors gave a very amusing act. I recommend it for everyone, and I'm really looking forward to seeing the whole series. The end is shocking. What I really loved was the conversations, the characters made their best on those. If you are looking for a show in this period of time, you have to take a look at it. I'm not a history teacher, but found it pretty correct. Sorry for the mistakes I could have made while writing this, I'm not English. I hope I gave you mood to watch this pilot, and I hope Amazon will order the entire show.

Loved the story line! I'm hooked!! Makes you want to see more! Cant wait to see the next episode!! Characters will definitely develop as the show goes on, great location, costumes was great, loved the sisters look! Awesome crew, The writers did a great job with this one. I Loved it! Awesome director...Its Randall Wallace duhh!! Can't wait to see what happens next with the In laws, the sisters, what the new guy Palidore will be getting into. This has to be a series! Its a must! Awesome they chose to film this in Virginia, makes the story more driven, real, shout out to the hair and makeup department! everything about this show is great! Make more, let us enjoy more!

the hair is supposed to be worn up not down during the day with a center part. The head must be covered when outside. Dresses during the day had a high neckline not this off the shoulders bust spilling out look. Evening dresses had low necklines but not that low. Really people you should have done better research! Plus the costume (wardrobe) designer should have known better! There is a lot of photographic evidence, books, and museums that you can go to, to get the answers. If you want it done right hire the people who eat sleep breathe this stuff every weekend during the summer. You make us look bad... sure the hobby is expensive however we do put a lot of time and effort into researching images of period dresses, materials, sewing techniques, head ware (hats & bonnets) and drafting patterns from the original dresses. Some of these dresses are pure eye candy, yes we metaphorically drool over exquisite dresses and gorgeous fabrics. It takes me at least SIX MONTHS to sew one of my dresses.

It is the language, I do not understand why folks have to take a perfectly good story and ruin it will, cursing GOD, and it is offensive, angry and hateful language and should not be allowed. The story is very good, you are watching and getting involved in the story, there is a party scene and the people are introduced to these characters, then men ride up on this family and the women come out with their guns and then they decide it is OK to take the LORDS name in vein, that is wrong, and in my book, will never watch this show ever again, or recommend it. It might take a little more talent to find words to describe feeling besides cursing the creator of the universe. It is WRONG!!! On any show, it has no place in our vocabulary.

Why is everyone calling this a show? Anyway I'm glad it never took off. Australian accent, daytime TV camera quality and poor acting aside, this is just straight up apologia for the South and its ridiculous view of itself. Yes they owned slaves but they knew it was wrong! Thomas Jefferson did too, despite not bothering to free his own children in his will (knew it was wrong though), look how noble whitey is descending down freein' the slaves to "Amazing Grace" after the sisters pitched a fit about it but were magically immediately converted because of their genetic nobility no doubt. Despite the believable actions the protagonist John freeing the slaves /s he nevertheless quit West Point to fight for the Confederacy because reasons. Because HONOR, damnit. Compelled not just to fight, but to raise his own rabble regiment out of the extremely racist PoS that were previously plotting to kill his sisters over the rumour of some freed slaves! Such was John's nobility. Because that nasty West Point General was going to attack Virginia and burn it all down! All because of a little thing like owning human beings. John was just like the noble DEFINITELY knew that slavery was wrong hero, Robert E. Lee! Who definitely wasn't a slave-owning traitor who enslaved free black men from the North to fight for the South *wink*! What was he supposed to do? Support the humanists and the actual United States? Lol no. Honor (whispers loudly: and slavery).
