I wouldn't necessarily classify
all of the participants as liberals (e.g. Sean Connery has said things that have irked feminists) but overwhelmingly there appears to be a tilt in the "talent" pool.
Since this is PBS it will be paid for in part by your tax dollars. Since the show is called "Freedom" I expect it to have some political bent. Since it deals with history, I expect it to have some revisionism.
They could surprise me on this one but I call them as I see them.

The Liberty cartoon on PBS has Cronkite as Ben Franklin (I think) and it does a pretty good job without any leftistisms that I can discern.

One of the actor voices, Susan Sarandon, had a surprise for Reeve.At a news conference at the Rainbow Room, she said the actors had donated their $1,000 fees to the Christopher Reeve paralysis foundation.
How generous of Susan...it just touches my heart.[/sarcasm].

I happened to catch a little of this show one afternoon and, politics aside, was unimpressed.
The plots were "Scooby Doo" simplistic, the characters trite and the celebrity voices distracting.

Morgan Freeman as Washington?
