@@thomasmills339 So just because a show was liked, doesn’t mean it’s underrated? Get off your high horse. Who cares if it’s inaccurate, it’s a TV show.
Such a damn inspiring scene. Like, ugh! Ben riding in like a badass, Caleb *being* a badass, the music. It's just all too much. Loved this scene. *Love* this show!
The most underrated show I've ever seen I've spoken to so many people bout this show and nobody has heard of it it needs some more recognition especially nowadays
I gave up on it at first as it seemed a little slow, but some Red Raider buddies convinced me to try it again I am glad I did. Not only is it historically accurate, except for the Hollowoodizing to make it more interesting, but they did a great job of character development and showing you how the character develops. It is a very well done show.
The battle itself is one of extraordinarily underrated significance to the Continental Army, it was the first time the American rebels took to the field, and stood toe-to-toe with British regulars and didn’t blink. They slugged it out with the British all day, eventually both sides disengaged with no significant damage or gains, a feat which even very, very few European continental armies can claim to have done. Monmouth was where the US Army was truly given its trial by fire after being forged in the ice of Valley Forge.
This show was incredible, not nearly enough modern film made on this great period in our history, this show, the John Adams series and maybe the movie The Patriot, it is of critical importance to express how this great country came to be.
The patriot was an atrocious affront to history though. Wrong in so many ways. I can forgive the weapon inaccuracies but the movies full of shit that’s so antithetical to history, just like Braveheart, that it’s just hard to watch. For instance, British soldiers burning down a church full of civilians? Sure I’m Nazi German… The American War Of Independence is a complicated subject full of wrongs on both sides, but nothing like Nazi Germany. The patriot is pure garbage, and has nothing to do with the founding of a nation in the American colonies. It’s ridiculous. There’s key points to remember when you throw aside the 20th century history books… The “Americans” per se, we’re not fighting for independence until 1776. Until then they simply felt their rights as English men were being affronted; they weren’t. The 7 years war caused massive debt to the crown spent entirely to defend saidncolonies. “Founding fathers” used propaganda, to spread a narrative, and in the end only won because the French joined, and the crown (most British folk didn’t give a shit about the American colonies) was busy fighting several wars including rebellions. The colonies actually had the advantage in the war. This wasn’t the underdog defeats evil empire. More a combination of various aspects that came together and caused what led to the founding of a nation. A prime example is the fact that the crown wanted to STOP stampeding across native territory after the 7 years war, but entitled asshats like Washington (terrible general, great President, decent Marshall) who felt they were Owed that native land.
FI5HR not in your home court, buddy. we didn't need the French; we won the war because of George washingtons continentals and heavy resistance in the south.
Aaaaand Cue slo-mow Brewster looking through gun powder smoke ...bad ass. The emotion felt through the song makes the scene. Nothing like a great montage. David Gray's that dude!
The Battle of Monmouth Courthouse, such a remarkably well done scene. The composition, the slow motion shots, and the whole scene together, as a whole, is what makes it awesome. I loved this show since day one, when Caleb is waking up to Robert Rogers' and his men after they'd been slaughtered. "Set It Right" is the perfect choice, it gives you chills watching it. As a Freemason and historian, I just appreciate the sacrifices made by so many unknowns, as it usually is the innocent who suffer most in war. Of course as a TV show we have to make allowances, as to the paid extras, repeated scenes from opposite angles, and the Show as a whole was truly underrated, I wish more seasons than 4. Love Angus McFaydens portrayal of Robert Rogers is just spectacular, as any historian/ war buff knows "Rogers Ruies of Ranging" especially our 75th Ranger L.I. Regiment, they take pride in their family tree and take pride in both Simcoe and Robert Rogers as their Forefather.
@adam smith. It was believe it or not, the 18th century version of a grenade launcher. Known as "the hand mortar" it could lob larger-than-bullet sized projectiles at far distances, or as featured here; multiple projectiles at once to rain down upon the enemy's position. The weapon was used primarily by the navy which explains Mr.Brewster owning one, as he eluded to navy service multiple times in this series. Also explains his beard; in the 18th century facial hair was extremely frowned upon, only outlaws, wilderness men and sailors had facial hair due to their lack of grooming. I hope this answered your question sufficiently. Tristan. Reenactor and extreme history fanatic.
Hey man it was really a civil war led by propaganda by “founding fathers” who manipulated the result of the 7 years war which bankrupted the crown while defending its colonies….
Caleb is such a badass, he looks like Death walking on the battlefield. I love this show. I started watching it after I was done reading « George Washington’s secret six » from Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger
One of the coolest things about this video, is not how incredible the music is, nor how powerfully patriotic the scene is, but the fact that ALL of the top comments don't have a single "dislike"... That almost means more to me than the scene does. Long live the United States!
What I liked the most in this series is that they depicted *both* of the factions at war not black and white (as the americans are the absolute good and the britishes are absolute evil), but with shades of grey. Well, most likely the only exception was simcoe, whose change of heart was a little bit rushed imho.
That hand cannon is awesome! Also I agree that this show is awesome! Should be required viewing in every History class where the birth of this Nation is discussed. It was such a fragile, perilous endeavor, and the fact that it succeeded was a miracle. One which we shouldn’t squander.
Ben doesn't come across as a tough guy but damn the boy can fight. From the first scene to the last he puts in work. Battles don't even phase him, just another day at the office. He's a real one.
+Austin Winchester i hope for at least 3 seasons more, the war ends in 1783 but the british army surrendered in 1781, it such a great show and i love american revolution
Christian Rowbotham no it didnt it sat in new york shagging its whores with washington incapable of moving them. and then just left after the treaty nice patriotic lie though.
One of the greatest scenes of the series. General Lee's plot to decimate the continental Army at this battle fail, the Brits thought it would end the war. Tallmadge was suspicious during the briefing but obeys orders. Caleb rides in to deliver a message that it's a trap which Tallmadge suspected. I guess Tallmadge was supposed to be a sacrificial Lamb being the tip of the spear, but that fails. After intercepting General Lee's predetermined retreat (he was delivering the victory to the Brits, they bought him off ) GW learned of the plot and showed up a day early as Lee was leading the continental army off the battlefield and into an ambush. GW gives him a public shaming and orders him to fall in behind; this later lead to a court martial and not a hanging, GW then takes the fight to the brits. Gives me goosebumps to hear GW yell fire and hear the cannons roar. The last couple of minutes of the episode were very moving as you can feel GW's gratitude toward Tallmadge and asks Tallmadge if he now trusts the Culper ring to which Tallmadge replies with my life and yours.
if todays Americans had half the courage and vigor of the revolutionary soldiers We would have a new government purged of greed and corruption and an end to the two party system.
This is where we come from.... If this ever comes again, know what it's for. And if we have to defend it, then do so with steadfast courage. We will be strong again.
This show inspires me now especially in a country where we are divided and people are trying to erase U.S. history. I will never let that happen and will show people like this show to always remember our history as it is important and so that it doesn’t repeat itself and so we divided Americans remember who we are and the country we live in! Will not let our history be lost without a fight! The good and the bad it needs to be remembered and should be remembered always
One of the greatest defining character moments from this scene comes from Simcoe. Look at how unbelievably comfortable and content he is when he's smack dab in the middle of a warzone where members of his own militia as well as the opposing army are slaughtering each other any regular man would hate and despise every waking second of this and be permanently scared by the horrors of it but not Simcoe Hilariously Simcoe feels publically insulted that Andrei demanded an immediate retreat when the odds have become impossible now that Washington and his Dragons have come in to storm the battlefield It really is telling that Hewlett always was Simcoe's complete and total Anti-Thesis to his very character a man who detested war and violence hut was roped into it hoping it would enevitably lead to a greater sense of peace but not Simcoe. He doesn't care who the enemy is or why we're killing them in mass as long as he gets to feel blood on his hands that's all he wants. In a lot of ways he's a lot like Gaston from the Beauty and the Beast remake. Specifically in the Remake since in the old Cartoon this was never addressed or even foreshadowed but in the remake they made mention how Gaston served as a Kings Ranger is the 7 Year War making him a War Hero who has seen so much conflict that his mind can never know peace
Loved this scene...but what a small battle! There's barely a hundred guys on each side lol. I know paying extras is a big crutch for tv shows that require large crowds to set the scene...but I know for sure that Washington, and the KING of friggin' England, had more troops than this!
no no no. The british clearly outnumberd the continental force in total numbers. However, similar to antietam later, the british never used their sueriority in numbers in this battle due to confusion.
🎶 Where at least I know I’m free and I won’t forget the men who died who gave that life to me and I proudly stand up next to you God bless the USA 🇺🇸 🎶
pretty cool but the battle of Monmouth happened in late June, not early fall. and the american army actually was ordered to not wear its uniforms as it was too hot to fight in them part of the reason the british lost was due to many of its soldiers collapsing from heatstroke
1:32 Andre’s like - I was planning on getting back together with my girl and having a great time as well as night of my life. Ugh! For once! Can anything go right for me?
@@bigmrcriticman5596 in one of the dvd commentaries you find out Simcoe was just lying to make himself seem more badass. Throughout the show he makes up bs to make himself look good. In a scene where he tells his men why he likes using a serrated bayonet the men look at eachother doubtfully.
A giant hand held mortar which looks so bizarre and out of place things like that were only used at sea and typically by pirates they are goofy and impractical .
The men who fought the American Revolution were different than every other American soldier since because they were fighting for a cause rather than an established country. After the Revolution every American soldier has fought for the government, not the cause of liberty. That's why the Revolutionary soldier is revered above all else.
great show. over the top at times? sure. historically inaccurate at other times? absolutely. entertaining as hell and have i watched the entire series a few times over? for sure. if i want historically accuracy to a T i'll read a book and watch a documentary
It was a hand mortar. The weapon was introduced in the late 1600s and rarely saw much usage. There are some accounts of its service in naval conflicts, but few and far between. Turns out shoving an explosive inside an explosive barrel held up to your chest with 1600s metalworking capabilities is a bad idea.

He actually abolished Slavery in Canada when he was made governor.

Hilariously Simcoe feels publically insulted that Andrei demanded an immediate retreat when the odds have become impossible now that Washington and his Dragons have come in to storm the battlefield

in real life...it was 8,000 british vs about 10,000 continentals
no no no. The british clearly outnumberd the continental force in total numbers. However, similar to antietam later, the british never used their sueriority in numbers in this battle due to confusion.
11,000 to 14,000 it was relatively close...and the longest battle of the war, and we turned their backs.
JMO excuses excuses...they had the numbers and they lost to farmers....its no big deal.
It's because AMC keeps giving all its budget to The Walking Dead.
Ben is awesome, slicing those redcoats with style :)
Not as much as Caleb
+Alpha7293 yeah he was epic too:)
Founding Fathers would be very proud of this show-
Depicting the Battle of Monmouth, 28 June 1778.
David Gray Set it right wrote and sang the song in this scene and many others..
love the american and british uniforms this is the battle of monmouth
This is my favorite show ever. Not The Wire, not Breaking Bad. Turn.
Simcoe is so fucking hardcore.
Too bad this show doesn't have banastre tarleton now He was a fucking badass
Zyzor Indeed, he was.
+Zyzor He may yet appear later on.
Isn't he the guy that tried to kidnap ben Tallmadge? DUDE! lol
hardcore at retreating
Never have so many been represented by so few
That tiny cannon tho!
Its a grenade launcher i have a real one on my channel
Am like the only 15 year old that loves this part of history learned much more then I did in school no offense teachers
I’m a blue coat for life
I absolutely love this scene even though there's a lot more the producers could have done to make the battle feel larger
At the end it also seems to contain the dramatic theme music that can be heard in most scenes with Washington..
I’m so dang conflicted. I’m Canadian so I live under the crown, but also a fan of the revolution. Dang it
The actor who plays Major John Andre is a good looking man. Reminds me of the Loki actor.
Oh yeah, I can see that. I think he also looks like Armie Hammer.
The actor is JJ Feild and he is excellent in this series and others
This show needed more battles than conspiracies
This scene was excellent

Set it right...
pretty cool but the battle of Monmouth happened in late June, not early fall. and the american army actually was ordered to not wear its uniforms as it was too hot to fight in them
part of the reason the british lost was due to many of its soldiers collapsing from heatstroke
WRONG WAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!
Where did they get this because this was in 1776
Love this scene, just sad that it led to the downfall of John André who was my favorite character in the series.
That song works with this scene though, like director built the scene around it.
They make it look cold when it was the hottest temperature fought under in the war in reality.
Is there anywhere the original track can be found?
“What the HELL are you about man?!”
I know historians have pin the battle of Monmouth as a draw but I still considered it a American victory.
Cant wait till season 3 ^^ in april or so. I was starting to fear the worst. AMC would be stupid to not follow up on this after all.
1:32 Andre’s like - I was planning on getting back together with my girl and having a great time as well as night of my life. Ugh!
For once! Can anything go right for me?
RUclips thinks this is from The Patriot (2000). lol
General Washington also badass.
"Wrong way!"
I love Simcoe even though he is the devil, I love just about every Brit in the show
Same but technically he's Indian because he was born in india
@@Andressanchez-of3xv he was born in Cotterstock England, idk why the show says he was born in India

What is Caleb shooting in this scene?
What is the link to this song on iTunes
What weapon was used at 32 seconds? Handheld cannon?
A giant hand held mortar which looks so bizarre and out of place things like that were only used at sea and typically by pirates they are goofy and impractical .
Funny. It was near 100º during the Battle of Monmouth, and everybody's wearing their coats and cloaks.
