You can go to the link above to stream it from Episode 1,Season 1,to the most recent episode.

This,like most of what is produced by Masterpiece Theater,is one of the best historical dramas to be found,and it's free. I am watching season 3 now,and can't wait for the next episode to air.

The casting,acting,and writing is as good as anything you will find anywhere,and better than most. There is history,war,and even love and romance in it. Something for everyone. For any of you who might not know much about history,there are shocking lessons to be learned. If you don't already understand what drove so many to leave Europe and come to America,you WILL understand by the time season 1 ends. Life was short,hungry,and brutal for everyone but thee nobility in the Olde World.

I recommend it to all. I was going to to write "I even recommend it to teens",but due to the history lessons and the doses of reality,I have decided to recommend it ESPECIALLY for viewing by teens after explaining to them that while it is fiction,it IS an accurate depiction of life in thee 1700's-1800's in Europe for both the peasant (today's working classes) and the nobility (today's trust fund children).

PBS is too often government propaganda but occasional it is reasonably accurate.

Ok,and what does that have to do with a historical dramatic series?

I read all the Poldark books after watching the first season. I also REALLLLLY loved PBS(BBC)'s Sharpe series based on Bernard Cornwall's books covering the Napoleonic Wars.

Me,too. NOBODY does historical dramas better than Masterpiece Theater from BBC.

Thanks for the link tip. I've been watching it on cable. It's an excellent period piece and I love the scenery.
