This show caught my eye online and I decided to take a chance and purchase on blu-ray. it's competently written, well-acted and has an interesting setting for a show. It's also very well produced and captures the period and location very well. If you have an interest in World War II era drama set in an unusual place (New Mexico) I recommend Manhattan - Season 1. Curious to see where things develop for Season 2.

Great TV Series. Disappointed they didn't release season 2. Great production - high quality Series - that is big screen deserving material. Very highly recommended.

a part of the history of world war 2. the atomic bomb was a tough job add the job made tougher by some of the paranoid government officials. a good watch and worth the time

Yeah, it's a fictional account of a very important historic event and as film and TV so often does, a bit over-dramatized. But still a good show to watch. Looking forward to future seasons.

Really liked characters and plot involving the personal relationships and stress associated with development of the atomic bomb. Seemed very real. Good acting and set.
