New Summer Series: Aquarius

It's probably one of the most talked about, heavily promoted new series of the summer. Aquarius is a new summer series on NBC that takes place in the late 60's when LA sergeant Sam Hook (played by David Duchovny) is helping with a missing person case with an undercover officer Brian Shafe (played by Grey Damon) who blends in like a hippie to fit in with the people being questioned. Unknown to their acknowledge that their investigation will lead to one of the greatest criminal of their generation, Charles Manson.

From the trailers and promos the series looks very interesting. This being Duchovny's first network television series since doing The X-Files, seems to be totally a different kind of character from his previous series as Mulder and Moody. The guy looks like a badass.

The series debuts this Thursday, May 28th with a two hour event starting in it's regular time slot at 9/8c.

After the series begins, NBC will allow you to watch the rest of the series online, NBC mobile app and on demand.

Also another interesting thing to know: on June 4th, right after Aquarius is the third season premiere of Hannibal with Gillian Anderson as part of the cast.

For that night two actors will reunite on NBC Thursday. So the truth is right there Thursday nights on NBC.

Aquarius premieres this Thursday in a 2-hour premiere event at 9/8c on NBC.
