CBS All Access's 'Strange Angel,' anyone?

A slow-burner of a show. Actually had to watch the first half of season 1 twice because I lost interest and decided to give it another shot. Glad I did. Fascinating second half of season one that has carried over to season 2.

"Jack Parsons, a brilliant and ambitious blue-collar worker of 1930s Los Angeles, started as a janitor at a chemical factory but had fantastical dreams that led him to birth the unknown discipline of American rocketry. Along the way, he fell into a mysterious world that included sex magic rituals at night, ultimately becoming a disciple of infamous occultist Aleister Crowley. Parsons used Crowley's teachings of self-actualization to support his unimaginable and unprecedented endeavor to the stars."
