Focuses on telling the story of those involved in project Manhattan, scientists and army men cramped in a built on the fly town in the middle of the desert. The setting is great and acting is on par overall. I recommend it to all, it manages to be entertaining despite revolving around the life of physicists. I don't know how accurate it is historically though, it's a TV show so it doesn't matter too much I guess.

It does look interesting. I will definitely watch it when it comes out on DVD. How's the overall season been?

I'd give it 75/100 so far which is really good for a first season, only one episode could be classified as filler IMO although one could argue it was for the sake of characterization.

I've been enjoying it. Watched about 5 episodes. One thing they should make clearer though is it's a fictionalised story with some characters made up and a lot of the events made up. Still a good show but it should really say it's inspired by the Manhattan project rather than based on it. So far I don't see any episodes as having been filler really, all have set up something else.

New season pretty good, first episode was a bit slow paced trying to build up, but shit is getting real real fast :applause:
