Well since they announced it not too long ago and they just got a star/ I would it should appear sometime in 2010. HBO seems to take a hell of a long to get shows on the air. I've been hearing about true Blood for years and that one still hasn't aired!

I have a screener DVD of True Blood the pilot. I'm afraid to sell it on eBay because I get a lot fo free screeners from studios. The pilot is decent, kind of slow but it starts out with a bang. Then after you get over the novelty of them being vampires you're kinda like ehhh. Lets see how it progresses.

They are currently filming this pilot in Detroit. I worked as an extra on a film today and some of other extras worked on this pilot yesterday. I might try and work on it Saturday.

Suburbs. The extras I spoke to had filmed some scenes in Bloomfield Hills Wednesday and the Saturday shoot is supposed to be up near Clarkston.

Yay, new Michigan film incentives!

I just got confirmed for Saturday. It will be so cool to see Alexander Payne direct this.

This sounds a bit like Boogie Nights... which coincidentally Thomas Jane was in.

Re: 'Hung' gets HBO hot and bothered

I just found out this series is premiering on HBO June 28th.

I worked as an extra during a basketball game scene, interested to see what makes the final cut.
