Manhattan TV show 1st season rerun

I have enjoyed the "Manhattan" TV show this summer. It is fiction based on history -- the development of the atomic bomb, the Manhattan Project.

The setting is the desert community built for the scientists and their families during WWII. I would guess about 1943 or so. I love the way that era is depicted with wardrobe and cultural expectations.

Within that desert community, the story unfolds and the scientists try to develop the bomb. Lots of soap opera stuff looking for spies among the scientists, love affairs, mental health issues with the stress, unhappy wives and children, etc.

The show ended its first season this week, but they announced that the first season will re run all day this coming Sunday, the 25th. I highly recommend it.
