It's 1967 and the era of free love, drug experimentation and Vietnam is in full effect. When the teenage daughter of a respected lawyer goes missing, LA Police Sergeant Sam Hodiak (David Duchovny, "Californication," "The X-Files") starts asking around. He soon discovers that the hippie kids he's questioning don't take kindly to cops, especially one with hair as short as his. Needing the help of someone they trust, he partners with rebellious undercover cop Brian Shafe, a man who's more comfortable rolling a joint than patrolling a beat. It's not long before they stumble upon a small-time cult leader seeking out vulnerable women to join his cause. From there, they follow this man's trail down a rabbit hole of drugs, sex, murder and cultural revolution. Little could they know, however, the guy they're hunting will eventually become the killer we now recognize as Charles Manson. He was a lost soul who desperately wanted to get into the music scene of the '60s until something snapped. This is the show that will explore the cat-and-mouse game between him and the police, which will go on for several seasons ultimately ending with the infamous Tate-LaBianca murders.

Cancelled
S02E08 is going on air on August 27th. This needs to be corrected.
It's not for me, after watching 2 episodes, I just find it too bland, not hooking me or giving me any reason to continue.. Non of the characters are interesting me in any way including the character played by David Duchovny.
Not what I was expecting..
Cringy dialogue, awful art-direction, no thanks
Frankly I expected more from first 2 episodes this was 3,5 or 4 star show so far. I dont say that it is not worth watching but I expected more.
