Hoffe jedenfalls, dass die Serie besser sein wird als "TMYLM".
Youtube VorschauAm 28. Januar des nächsten Jahres startet HBO eine neue Serie und experimentiert mit dieser ganz schön. Nicht nur, dass bereits 45 Folgen bestellt wurden, die Serie wird werktäglich ausgestrahlt. Hinzu kommt, dass die Serie wohl hauptsächlich in einer Kulisse spielen wird. Ich bin irgendwie schon gespannt drauf. Sollte die Serie gut sein, hat man mit der Serie auch schon ausreichend neuen Stoff, sollte der Autorenstreik noch viel länger gehen.
The HBO 'Treatment'
A popular Israeli TV series about therapy is getting a translation
By Matthew Kalman, Globe Correspondent | February 25, 2007
TEL AVIV -- Hagai Levi, creator of the first Israeli drama series adapted for US television, has proved that less is more.

Israeli life is hardly lacking in daily drama. There is the horror of suicide bombings, the pain of war, the challenge of ending a 40-year occupation and finding peace with the Palestinians -- not to mention a raft of domestic corruption and sex scandals that in the past month alone have triggered the resignation of the country's justice minister and the start of impeachment proceedings against the president.
But "In Treatment," Levi's multi-award-winning daily half-hour drama series that has been snapped up for adaptation by HBO, has not a single gun, bomb, corrupt politician , or suicide bomber anywhere on the screen. Instead, it boasts a single indoor set in which the only action is two people sitting and talking to each other .
HBO will air 45 English-language episodes five nights a week in the fall, starring Gabriel Byrne as a taciturn but effective psychotherapist and Dianne Wiest as his therapist guide and confessor.
"In Treatment" became a television and social phenomenon in Israel, sweeping the Israeli television awards for best drama series, best director, best screenplay, best actor , and best actress, and attracting huge audiences in this tiny country.

HBO sets 'In Treatment' schedule
Therapy series stars Byrne, Wiest
By JOHN DEMPSEY
HBO has finally released the on-air schedule of "In Treatment," the most logistically complicated original series in the 35-year history of the network.
Starring Gabriel Byrne as a psychotherapist, "In Treatment" consists of five characters in one-on-one sessions as patients with their analyst; the five get nine half-hours apiece for their story arcs, for a total of 45 episodes.
Beginning on Monday, Jan. 28, at 9:30 p.m., the episode featuring the first of the five patients kicks off and runs for the next eight Mondays. On Tuesday, Jan. 29, the second patient stretches out on the couch and bares his soul for a total of nine Tuesdays. The same pattern holds for Wednesdays and Thursdays. The difference on Fridays is that the analyst himself will become the patient in a training analysis, with Dianne Wiest as his psychiatrist.
Beginning with week two of the series, the first week's appropriate half-hour will be repeated each night at 9 as a lead-in to the new episode.
