Weeds’ Mary-Louise Parker might star in new Showtime series
Over its two seasons, Showtime’s Masters Of Sex has been doing what some people once thought impossible: bringing HBO-esque prestige to a cable network that isn’t HBO. Showtime isn’t stopping there, though, and it’s working on another biographical drama from Masters’ executive producers Sarah Timberman and Carl Beverly. This time, the network is adapting the life/work of poet Mary Karr, the author of best-selling memoir The Liars’ Club. This comes from Deadline, which reports that Karr herself is set to executive produce as well.
