Continuity: From August through September, the characters are in two places at the exact same time. James and Henri are present to witness LaFayette's courage at Brandywine on 11 September 1777, yet are also with General Gates' American army at Saratoga (and James is a prisoner of the British during that Saratoga episode at the same time he's able to witness Brandywine).

Quotes:
Benjamin Franklin:
Sir, I will tell you what I've told others just like you a hundred times: Congress gave me no power to hire officers.
French Officer: But I *am* of merit!
Benjamin Franklin: Sir, you knowing that you are of merit is a good and pleasing thing, but it does not mean it is known to everybody.
French Officer: You insult me! I am of exceptional merit! Hmph!
[storms out]
Benjamin Franklin: Heaven forbid he has the price of passage. If Congress continues promoting these fools into officers, we will surely lose the war.

I am a 35 year old parent with 4 year old and 2 year old boys. We watched Liberty's Kids every day. We especially loved the repeats because that is how the boys were able to grasp everything and remember it. What happened to it? Where did it go? We miss it very much. It was our favorite show. As a parent I feel that there is very little on television for children to watch and learn in a fun way. Liberty's Kids was interesting, educational, exciting, fun and held my boys attention for the entire 30 minutes. I wish there was a Civil War version of Liberty's Kids. Yes, we are a History loving family, but even if we weren't, we would still love Liberty's Kids. I want it back on television. Please. What do I have to do to get it back on PBS Pittsburgh?
