Aquarius (series, show, nbc, character)

[John F S]

I searched 15 pages and couldn't find a thread.
This is on NBC, beginning tomorrow, Thursday. It is about Charles Manson, his followers, and the cop who went after him. David Duchovny plays the cop.
It is a network summer show so it may not be of the highest quality - but we'll see. We might be pleasantly surprised.
If you have never heard of Charles Manson, then you might want to look him up.

I can't wait to check this out, but we never watch NBC so I've really never seen a preview. I think that it is an investigation of him before the wild rampages and mass murders. I remember reading Helter Skelter when it first came out. Charles Manson is one hell of a monster.

We'll record and watch it, for several reasons, none of which involve a lot of hope with regard to its quality. We didn't like Duchovny in Californication and I suspect that his character will be equally annoying in Aquarius.

He was on one of the NY news stations the other morning promoting an album he made and he sang a song which sounded awful!

Even though it will air on a different network, perhaps hiso could be the prequel to Moulder's return in the upcoming re-issue of the X-Files?

And who in America that is old enough to tie their own shoes has not heard of Charles Manson?

I believe you might be surprised.

Great premise, so I hope it will be great.

On the other hand, this is NBC, which hasn't put out a good series in as long as I can remember.

And yes, I did try The Blacklist, and no, I didn't like it.

I'm going to give this one a shot. I've always been fascinated by this crime for some reason.

Won't be watching. I don't need to watch anything more about Charles Manson. He sickens me. Might be good for people who didn't live through that time or you have a fascination about that sick nut-job. Hope those who watch enjoy.

I haven't watched the show yet, but to be fair, the previews certainly seem to be painting Manson as a "sick nut-job."
