Aquarius cancelled

No big surprise. I didn't think they would renew it. To bad it was a very interesting series.

Maybe Netflix will pick it up.

Not surprised, but disappounted nonetheless.

Sad but expected.

Damn, this should have been on a premium channel in which David Duchovny has a previous history with or, better yet, something like AMC where they are able to afford authentic vintage clothing and such for a T.V. series like Mad Men (2007).

I figured they were going to give this the same treatment as Life on Mars (2006). It's just too expensive to produce.

I'm going to miss Aquarius but also have to say that I'm not the least bit surprised. What I found particularly interesting was that, amongst being set back in the sixties and seventies, was that while it might have a small procedural story of the week it also had a larger evolving story line. Also it followed the character of Sam Hodiak and you learned about him and embraced him as much being an on the job Detective as well a human being outside of the station who's just trying to get by. Not every procedural show fleshes out their characters in the way Aquarius fleshed out who Sam Hodiak was.

I will say I was pained by what happened to his female friend, Billie Gunderson. She was very good for him, breathed some much needed life into him and got him to live outside of being a police detective. It was sad what happened to her and how, even as a casual viewer, even I know the trauma she suffered will come to end their relationship. At least it's what I would've expected had there been a third season.

For someone whom originally was only watching because I enjoy Emma Dumont, Clair Holt and the Manson Murders fascinate me (just how crazy can one guy be, let alone those who followed him?), I have to say that Oliva Taylor Dudley and Tara Lynne Barr were nice finds and the show as a whole really was impressive if lowly rated... Old style police work, before the times of CSI reports and running to the computer to dig through some treasure trove of a police database that both all to conveniently tell the heroes what they want to see or hear...

My sympathies to those who liked and will miss the show.

I watched the first season and was entertained enough to finish it. Then watched the first episode of the second season, and it lost me.

Season 2 was so rushed with a lot in continuity errors that I thought it had been cancelled before starting filming it.
