Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

karensmith123 I was in second grade, 7 yrs old, when this TV show was on. I loved it so much. I didn't know of the civil war until this show and I asked so many questions about the war, not understanding why brothers could fight each other. As I studied the war through school and college, I always used the perspective point of Ben and Jeff Canfield. I used to ask people if they loved this show as much as I did and they didn't remember it. When we first got the internet, I looked it up and only found the TV schedule for 1960 with the Americans listed, but that was all. I quit looking . . until now and found more info about it. I am excited to see there are more people who loved it as much as I did. I always wished it had been on more than the one year. I cried during the show. I remember when they saw each other while hiding in a barn. I wanted history to change and just let them live in peace, but of course, it couldn't end that way. I'm glad I had a chance to know this show. Thanks for info about it and everyone's comments.

pgspat I was just ten when I watched this civil war series. I remember it as the first show to make me think about the world of adults and the serious topics like war and how families could be torn apart. Growing up in the South I also had a sympathetic view of the rebels, but I also really liked Ben Canfield (Darryl Hickman). The episode I remember the most is when he and Col. Fry are captured and sent to Libby prison and how the prisoners were mistreated.The great uniforms and interesting characters left a big impression on me and like others here I often dreamed about the characters and often some of my memories of this show are actually memories of the dreams I had about it.This would be a great find on DVD but doesn't seem to have the commercial interest to ever come out. Maybe some day the TV on demand of the future will include this classic from the past.

graywyn1 Darryl Hickman has been one of my favorite actors of all time. Both my sister and I memorized the opening credits which are: One hundred years ago, Americans, both North and South, gripped by opposing yet sincere beliefs fought the war between the states. From this struggle emerged a new character, a new America. To the brave and gallant soldiers of the union and confederacy, we dedicate this program. Through the eyes of two young brothers, Ben and Jeff Canfield we will relive once more the tumultuous days of the blue and the gray the story of the Americans. We loved this show and unfortunately have not been able to see it for over forty years. I was hoping we could get a DVD of it so if anyone knows where, please let us know. His picture with Dick Davalos and Gigi Perreau in their roles on the Americans appeared on the cover of a TV Guide issue in 1961. Darryl Hickman was also on Broadway in How to Succeed in Business around 1964. We loved him as Davey on Dobie Gillis. I have seen the majority of his movies. I would love to be able to write to him and let him know how much he is appreciated or at least to be able to get a picture of him.

PontiacGTO17 I loved this show when I was a kid, and I remember being very disappointed when it was taken off the air. I remember that it was a gripping drama, and that it held my attention even though I was very young at the time and not too interested in anything other than comedies and cartoons. I also remember my mother complaining once that it was too violent, so maybe this had something to do with its appeal. Surprisingly, it doesn't seem to have made much of an impression on anyone else, because I've never met anyone else who even remembers it, so I'm glad to see so many positive reviews of the show here. I would love to see this show again. It must have been a good show, because I haven't forgotten it in 44 years, and I was only 6 or 7 years old when it aired.
