Created by J.J. Abrams - the first series he's the sole creator of since 2001's Alias - and showran by Bash Doran (writer of 12 episodes of Boardwalk Empire, among other things).
Pilot written by Abrams.

It is described as "an epic and intimate sci-fi fantasy drama. Source previously have described it as centered around a world’s battle against a monstrous, oppressive force."

The script was highly sought after, but HBO managed to grab the series, as they already have a working relationship with Abrams' Bad Robot (with Westworld, among other things).

The latest news are from June 2018, so it seems they don't have a cast and haven't started filming yet. But it probably also means they must be getting close to now.

As for what the title might mean: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demimonde


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

J. J. Abrams, the creator of many sci-fi tears.


"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

They say Sci-fi and J.J., I read a world’s battle against a monstrous, oppressive force. I disconnect.

Seriously, I really really really miss tought-provoking stories with a Sci-fi setting. Supposedly they read and know their Asimov, Lem, Clarke, De Pedrolo, Lovecraft... I'd say, what are you waiting for!? BRING IT! Mad
