What the Hell?!

Considering the circles I run in, I can't believe that this is the first
I'm hearing about a big budget Jack Parsons series on one of the "major"
networks!

Anybody see it? Is it worth our time? How deep do they get into the
esoterica?

I assume they won't be including the part where Parsons shoots an 8mm film
of his mother having sex with his Great Dane roughly a week before the Big
Kaboom?
