Reunion
My favorite of the series
The relationship and intimacy between John and Abigail is the strongest emotional cord throughout the series. Other aspects of the story is well done but this great American love story was brought to life perfectly. Giamatti and Linney are exceptional tailored for each other as these characters; the few times the series stumbles it never involved the marriage. As such this episode is deeply engrossed with that aspect and the literally reunion scene is the most touching of the series.
Apart from that the episodes dramatizes successfully one of the surreal episodes in history that is both really funny and really emotionally painful. The scene in which John Adams is introduced to King George III *as America's ambassador* is best scene of the series. It fully captures just how bizarre, awkward and well in a way funny that event must have actually been.

&#; King George III to John Adams, on the occasion of Adams&#; audience with the King on 1st June,
This scene from the superb HBO miniseries &#;John Adams&#; (based on David McCullough’s best-selling biography) shows the aforementioned meeting between King George III and then-US Minister to Great Britain (and future President) John Adams.
The American war for independence against Britain concluded with the Treaty of Paris, and this royal audience in June was a moment of great historical importance. It marked the first meeting between a British Sovereign and an official envoy of the newly-independent United States of America. As such, the audience was a highly anticipated meeting among the European ambassadors and British courtiers at St James Palace, the King&#;s principal residence and site of most official Court functions.
For Adams, a Federalist and former British subject who was among the more conservative of American statesman, the meeting was a highly emotional one. He recalled it vividly in a letter to his wife Abigail, who would have her own audience with the King&#;s consort, Queen Charlotte,
