Showtime series in development: The Damned

[Temis the Vorta]

The Damned.

The Damned is described as a modern adaptation of the comic, written by Cullen Bunn and illustrated by Brian Hurtt. It will revolve around Eddie, a cursed man, who is stuck in the middle of a turf war in modern day Chicago where mobsters are demons. Eddie must play all the angles to keep the warring families at bay while trying to reclaim his soul.

Haha, The Sopranos from Hell. Sounds cool.

I think this is the first really sf/f series I've heard that Showtime is developing. (Have there been more? I can't keep track of it all.) There's one called Last H.O.P.E. about "the last hospital on Earth," presumably a post-apocalyptic scenario, but I haven't heard much about it at all.
