New history series Lincoln Apple TV
Manhunt

A gripping thriller and Civil War era history lesson, the seven-part miniseries focuses on the aftermath of Abraham Lincoln’s assassination and the search for his killer, John Wilkes Booth. The story pivots around Secretary of War Edwin Stanton (Tobias Menzies) and his determination to find Booth while enacting Lincoln’s political wishes — and meetings with Frederick Douglass, Lincoln’s successor, and a fragile Mary Todd Lincoln shed new light on the era. But perhaps most compelling and new to many history buffs is the story of Mary Simms (Lovie Simone), who was enslaved by the doctor who briefly housed Booth and treated the assassin’s broken leg, and at great risk testified against Mudd at his much-publicized trial.  The series adaptation comes from Monica Beletsky (Fargo, Friday Night Lights) and co-stars Lily Taylor, Matt Walsh, and Patton Oswalt. The first two episodes begin streaming today.
