33 "Tales of the City" (1993) (mini)

- Over 15 years several companies (including Warner Brothers and HBO) bought
options to film this story, based on 'Armistead Maupin' (qv)'s novel.
Finally this 6 part miniseries was produced by Britain's Channel 4, San
Francisco's local PBS station KQED and PBS' ``American Playhouse''.
- PBS bowed to the pressure of the right and dropped plans to film the second
volume of the series with Channel 4. Although Channel 4 was reportedly still
interested in the project, it chose not to proceed alone.
