One of the most bizarre coincidences of all time: Thomas Jefferson and John Adams died on the same day, on July 4, 1826, the 50th birthday of the country.
John Adams: Thomas Jeffersons survives.
Respect to this show for not glamorizing or romanticizing old age. Thomas and John were both extremely sick and miserable when they died, and Giamatti and Dillane portray it very well. They did not die gracefully or peacefully, but with violence and coughing and basically rotting away in their beds.
The timing of Adams and Jefferson's death was so thematically perfect you would think it was made up for the mini-series
Remember when politicians would disagree with each other but also respect each other? Good times.
One of the most poetic coincidences in our nation’s history is the death of the two men both on July 4th who introduced partisanship and the peaceful transition of power between political rivals
I can almost imagine Adams going to heaven and shouting "Hey, what are you doing here? Now my last words will forever be known as irony!"
Watched this a few years back and instantly became a huge admirer of John Adams. What a great man and amazing life he lived.
John Adams’s final words:
Incredible series. Absolutely incredible. This entire series has awoken a true history nerd inside me.
These two men were so intertwined in a pivotal moment in history and over their lives. It's beyond fascination. While the events didn't happen exactly as HBO's portrayal, here, the sequence did occur as portrayed. Adams' last words were "Thomas Jefferson survives" but Thomas Jefferson had died 4 to 7 hours before. Adams also said his wife's name and was in-and-out of hallucinations on his death bed. I personally believe that Jefferson, having died, welcomed Adams in his passing. Thus, Adams' statement was accurate and correct.
The lesson of Jefferson and Adams is something people need to be reminded of today with our Politics. Despite our differences and despite what we think we can still be friends and friendships can always be fixed as these two men did.
As a Brit, I loved this miniseries. If only for the start, how everyone is a UK colonist, and by the end you see a bunch of founding fathers try to help kickstart a fledgling nation from 13 colonies. Amazing stuff
As kids we all worshipped Jefferson. As men we all relate and appreciate John Adam’s
RIP John Adams (October 30, 1735 - July 4, 1826), aged 90
I wish I could go back in time and meet our forefathers. It would be amazing.
Wow the odds of both men dying on that day is eye opening.
… I watched this scene once before… To my surprise, no death scene has ever brought me closer to crying than this one. I’ve seen many death scenes, but for some reason I found this one the most emotional.
John Adams: What are you doing here?
Both actors did a GREAT job portraying Adam's and Jefferson!
