Q: Will there be another season of the miniseries "Sons of Liberty"? It was entertaining and historical!
The short answer is that nobody knows. As you say yourself, "Sons of Liberty" was produced as a miniseries, which means there was no commitment to more at the time, but that the option is open. It also means that, if the producers do decide to make another series of some sort, they're not committed to any kind of timeline the way a regular series would be.
"I don't know if there'll be another part," actor Jason O'Mara told TheHDRoom.com, "but it would be interesting to see how it all plays out."

Q: Was there a Hanna-Barbera character who was the ghost of an American founding father or something? Or am I making that up? Didn't he have his own show at one point?
Though it certainly does sound like you're making him up, the Funky Phantom was very real. Well, relatively real.
He was the main character in a short-lived 1971 series called, appropriately, "The Funky Phantom." In it, three teens who are driving around aimlessly with their dog inadvertently free the ghost of a Revolutionary War soldier. The ghost (who, it should be said, was not particularly funky -- certainly not by 1970s standards) follows the kids around, helping them solve mysteries.
