Treme: Trailer

I know we have plenty of Wire fans kicking around here, so they'll doubtless be anticipating David Simon's latest TV offering, Treme. The series takes place three months after Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, following the residents of the city's Treme neighbourhood (including musicians, chefs and Mardi Gras Indians), as they try to rebuild their lives in the wake of the hurricane's devastation. The cast is pretty damn good, too, with some Wire veterans in the mix: Steve Zahn, Khandi Alexander, Kim Dickens, Clarke Peters, Wendell Pierce & John Goodman. You can check out the first trailer embedded above. HBO's Treme debuts on 11 April.
