Down to Watch drops this week with a couple of spring streaming shows with secrets aplenty! Dan and Raul caught a couple of sneaky little shows in their sights with titles that might be misleading. First, AppleTV+ does not have the third season of Manhunt from Spectrum TV, but they do have an adaptation\\xa0of the book Manhunt that describes the lawful search for John Wilkes Booth. The investigation into Lincoln's assassination is new ground for most viewers and the first two eps get a lot out of the procedural\\xa0of it all as well as an unexpected emotional element. Next is The Gentlemen, a spiritual sequel to the film of the same name, both from writer-director Guy Ritchie who continues his resurgence after shedding most of his style-over-substance artistic persona. The show follows a new Duke in charge of a surprise weed grow op under his newly bequeathed manor and how his quick wits will serve him well as head of a criminal franchise and a family of aristocratic kooks. Word on the street is positive on both shows, but did these small-screen stories resonate with the DtW crew? Answers within!
