(and why an upper-class (rich if not actually aristocratic) Anglo-American was fighting with Hessian mercenaries).
I don't think he was fighting with the Hessians until after he was captured and/or killed.
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I figure, if I can deal with Roanoke VA being in New York, I can deal with anything.

Well, once you introduce two characters who've ... slept? ... for more than 200 years, one of them after having his head cut off, reality kinda stops being a consideration.

There's accepting the various undead, and then there's scrambled geography.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I figured the Wacky Misty Forest around The Lost Colony was some kind of Space-Time distortion not entirely unlike that which surrounds Brigadoon. Obviously some of the details change as to how and when it can be found by outsiders.

This show makes me glad I only have a vague sense of American history.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I just hope they don't Xena-fy the Founding Fathers too much. As long as Crane is just around in the vicinity for their big achievements without being an unrecorded contributor, I can overlook the trope. I don't want him ghost-writing Patrick Henry's "Give me liberty or give me death!" speech the night before.

Sue, considering that many Americans only seem to have a vague sense of the same, you're probably ahead, since you assume you don't have much.
I'm still chuckling over Sleepy Hollow ranches. And Spanish moss on the trees....
