Manhattan (sometimes styled MANH(A)TTAN) is an American period drama television series depicting the Manhattan Project, the United States Army's research and development program which produced the first atomic weapons during World War II.

The show was the first drama production for WGN America since the revival of Tribune Broadcasting's production arm as Tribune Studios. The series premiered on WGN America on July 27, 2014 and earned critical acclaim throughout its run, but failed to secure adequate ratings. As a result, it was canceled after its second season, becoming the first WGN America original series to be canceled.
Set in 1943 and 1944 during the Manhattan Project and World War II, the series focuses on the scientists at Project Y and their families in the newly-created Los Alamos, New Mexico, a town the outside world knows nothing about. The government tells the scientists only what they need to know, while the scientists keep secrets from their families.

The series began filming in mid-March across 12 acres (5 ha) in New Mexico. On October 14, 2014, Manhattan was renewed for a second season. Production on season 2 wrapped on July 24, 2015.

The review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes reports a 90% critics rating, with an average rating of 8.3/10 based on 31 reviews; the site's consensus reads: "Though slow to start, Manhattan is a top-notch drama thanks to a talented cast, beautiful cinematography, and a keen eye for period detail."
Season 2 received further acclaim, scoring an 80 out of 100 based on nine reviews on Metacritic. Rotten Tomatoes reports a 93% approval rating, with an average rating of 8.7/10 based on 14 reviews, and the site's consensus reading, "Manhattan's slow-building intrigue and sense of impending doom deepen in season two, further enriching an already well-acted period drama."

Creator Sam Shaw said although that at first the show seems to be about World War II, and the development of the atomic bomb, it was about two eras: the development of the atomic bomb, and after dropping of it on Japan. Speaking about a potential third season Shaw said "the most complicated and morally fascinating and dramatic aspects of the history don't come until after the end of World War II." Shaw noted that only Fritz, Meeks, and Winter knew exactly what happened at the end of season 2 and that going forward he hoped he would get to write that story. Shaw also said "I hope we'll get to follow characters in this moment when Los Alamos goes from being the best kept secret in the world to being the most famous city on the planet."
