It is a decent docuseries it is told in a very compelling and engaging way. When a docuseries examines a prior event, it is typically done to complete viewers' memory of it by providing information they might not have known or remembered. In any case, it fills in any gaps that might not have been communicated in the pre-internet and pre-social media era. Although it's startling that the Boston Marathon bombing happened ten years ago, neither of those circumstances existed at the time. Because of this, American Manhunt falls short of fully informing us of information on an incident that was so widely covered that it dominated social media and the news cycle for a week following the explosion of the bombs. In the conclusion it is very informative to viewers who don't know anything about these events. If you followed it back then when it happened you might as well skip it.
