The series has a very similar style and feel to that show and the 60's setting is captured perfectly. There is a lot going on in the background of this atmospheric drama: racial tensions, sexism towards female police workers, sexual exploitation and the growing of many recreational drug culture, all that being explored in the storylines whilst remaining firmly centred around the creepy Charles Manson, played brilliantly by Gethin Antony. David Duchovny simply great.
