What’s your elevator pitch for Turn??? I’ve been going back and forth for years about whether to watch it rip

I'VE GOT YOU MY FRIEND

1. What's it all about

TURN: Washington's Spies is basically a prequel to 'Hamilton' but instead of focusing on the life of the founding father, it targets a group of friends-turned-patriots in Setauket, leading up to the Battle of Yorktown.

('TURN'= 'Sharpe' + 'Aubreyad' with 'Hell On Wheels' sprinkles)

2. Characters

Whereas the main character- Abraham Woodhull, a cabbage farmer, and his father the Magistrate of Setauket- are annoying most of the time, the show is full of other amazing characters you'll end up loving!

Abraham Woodhull- the WORST spy ever

Anna Strong- a founding MOTHER OF REBELLION, and yes she's VERY strong, we love her

Benjamin Tallmadge, a head of the Intelligence, aide to Washington, too pure for this world

George Washington Himself- I absolutely LOVE how they portrayed him not only as a FOUNDING FATHER™ and HERO™ he was, but a man who's vulnerable and will help his soldiers dig out the trenches

(And whereas the engine which kept 'Hamilton' running was the father-son relationship between Alexander and Washington, I'd concur that we got it but between Washington and Lafayette/Tallmadge.)

Major Edmund Hewlett - aka 'Oyster' Major (because of the Oyster Bay near Setauket where he was stationed), he's a fan favourite for a reason- to witness his character develop over the seasons was sheer joy

He's a gentleman, a good, decent man, and one of the most human characters in the entire show+ he cannot flirt which makes him even more precious<3

Caleb Brewster, he's capable, good-humoured comic relief in the shape of a Blackbeard, he grew up with Anne, Ben and Abraham in Setauket and camps with Washington's army, loves axes and cowboy hats

And there's this RAT- John Graves Simcoe, we love to hate him, (I wish there was a stab button like during the Ides of March), he's a psychopath with tragic backstory, obsessed with killing, kind of Obadiah Hakeswill from 'Sharpe' but Simcoe does it in style™

3. They have BOATS

YES THEY DO.

4. Photography

Simply stunning, to choose one frame was a crime because you can pause a random episode and discover that the frame looks like a painting

5. References

If you've seen 'Hell on Wheels' and liked it, you'll probably enjoy TURN as well! Just like that historically inspired series, TURN is full of good good-paced drama which has a tendency to keep you on edge every now and then, beautiful costumes, great props (cannons and guns) and (quite bloody) fight scenes

WoAH, that took me like an hour but I hope it's of use- I tried so hard not to hyper fixate and I hope it shows bahhaha

Thank you for Your ask, happy to be of service! <3

↳ The Wild West

“My heaven is filled with good horses, open plains, wild cattle, and a man who loves me. It is always sunrise in my world. And there are no storms. I am the only lightning. I know death now. I’ve seen it. It had no fangs. It smiled at me. And it was beautiful.” - 1883

A perfect sky, a storm A message made from bones Of those we loved We lie awake in fear Of what we've lost
