TV show description:
This dramatic thriller series takes place in 1967 in Los Angeles, two years before the infamous Tate-LaBianca murders of 1969.
LAPD Homicide Detective Sam Hodiak (David Duchovny) is a decorated World War II vet who barely recognizes the city that he’s now policing. Long hair, cheap drugs, rising crime, protests, free love, police brutality, Black Power, and the Vietnam War are all radically remaking the world that he and the Greatest Generation saved from fascism some 20 years ago.
Emma Karn (Emma Dumont), the 16-year-old daughter of a former girlfriend, goes missing in a sea of hippies and Hodiak agrees to find her. He faces only hostility, distrust and silence. He enlists the help of Brian Shafe (Grey Damon), a young and idealistic undercover vice cop who’s been allowed to grow his hair out. Shafe infiltrates this new counterculture to find her.
The generational conflict between the two is immediate and heated, yet they’re both dedicated officers. They soon realize that the need to bring Emma home is more urgent than they first thought. She has joined a small but growing band of drifters under the sway of a career criminal who dreams of being a rock star — Charles Manson (Gethin Anthony).
Episode #26 — I Will
A newly “retired” Hodiak tracks down the serial killer who has been tormenting him for months, without the protection and authority of his police position. Manson sends Tex, Sadie, Emma, and Patty to 10050 Cielo Drive, where they are swept up in one of the most infamous crimes in the country’s history.
First aired: September 10, 2016
What do you think? Do you like the Aquarius TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season?
I enjoy this show. It should be renewed for season 3
Aquarius needs to be renewed – PLEASE !!!!! – Duchovny really has me hooked. It’s a realistic and believable 70’s time period drama, with some great actors.
Fabulous program, but the network seems to jerk it around so it is difficult to find. Example…when is the next episode to air?
I totally agree with the schedule thing so I have it set to record through the DVR to record any day & any time.
I will set DVR just in case so that I do not miss it.
I really enjoy watching Aquarius. I read Hellter Skelter and it really is close.
Great show = please renew for another season
Love Aquarius!
Renewed for sure. It is a great show, Duchovny is awesome!
Aquarius brings back the feelings of those times-Veitnam, hippies, folk music, segregation, race riots. Renew please
Please renew this show is very very good! Unlike anything else on television.
I love shows with history class!! I can sit with my kids and reminisce knowing about this. Keep going!!
Please renew.
Great time period show,takes me back to my youth.I sure hope it comes back,PEACE and LOVE EVERYONE !!!!
Bring this show back. It was a great series.
Love this show, please keep on….yes for season 2
My hubby & I love this show. We are from this era & the turmoil from this time shows thru. We were very disappointed w/shows like Under the Dome. So much is promised, and then just goes off in weird directions that don’t make any sense & very disjointed from what they show at the beginning. “What the heck was all that stuff about the butterfly? At least Aquarius feels like art flowing over you & drags you in. Just like “Charlie” did in real life. That dude is crazy. But it makes for good TV.
