Taking artist license as done with Sons of Liberty maybe entertaining but unfortunately with the passage of time snowballs into such inaccuracy that it literally rewrites history.
Series such as Deadwood and Black Sails unfortunately focus more on irrelevant sexual content in hopes of drawing a larger audience. To me it is a real turn off and the story loses its appeal because the sexual component dominates and obscures the swashbuckling and adventurous nature of such shows. In other words if pornography is the point people could look elsewhere
