Why the fuck would you spoil a perfectly good historical subject like that?

>Not saving subjects that are going to be raped by someone with an agenda

Or maybe you'd prefer plays where the Founding Fathers are black men and women rapping to each other.

Like Sharpe's Rifles but with a middle class American before, during and after the revolutionary war.

Brad Sharpe's sergeant is a free black British man and treated exactly like any other British.

Ok but what is the agenda there besides pandering to a modern audience.
>>
>>798346
Brad Sharpe was promoted to Lieutenant when he saved George Washington's life from Indians (post-modern noble savage stereotype Indians).
>>
>>798351
In the revolutionary war Brad Sharpe mostly fights a guerilla was against the Tories and Indians (noble, but failing to correctly understand the situation) over the mountains. But there are episodes set in the South, Canada and the Maritime campaign as well.

Brad Sharpe also liberates Haiti from Slavery single handedly, with the help of his Black British sergeant.

>>798357
In the second Made for Television Length Movie Brad Sharpe takes on a tough rough and tumble young Corporal, who is from Spanish America. It is only when bathing that Brad Sharpe discovers that he is REALLY A WOMAN. She is a democratic revolutionary and as passionate as she is competent.

Sharpe and his squad are of course Riflemen, except for the Riflewoman who is fully accepted even as people come to know his secret. Being Riflemen they get up to Behind Enemy Lines Operators Operating Operationally with the Most Modern Gear Shit. When not being personally supervised by GEORGE WASHINGTON to take Secret Operational Operators Operating Operationally Operations they also encounter the forerunners of the FBI, CIA, NSA and Special Forces community, all of whom are upstanding and not morally corrupt in anyway at all.

The most controversial episode is where Brad Sharpe and the UNITED STATE MARINE CORPS compete for who can Operate Operationally most Operationalistically against the Tory British.

French and Spanish troops who fought with the revolution are never featured once on screen.

I think you're wrong there. Don't you remember the episode of Brad Sharpe where he almost wins the siege of Gibraltar but the French surrender monkies stop him from capturing it?

Fine, but don't get mad.

You are a scientist who invents time travel. So you are a time travaler. You are telaported back in time, but you can't get back. So what do you do, well... nothing you just sit and wait, and try to not get killed. Then all of a suden you are telaported again to a new place. This keeps happening until the end. This would work very well as a childrens show about history.
