This tv series will be 16+ (R-rated) tv series based on that footage from the first video and that mean it be dificult to program. But mabey there can program it on a Sunday 11.00 PM on the public channel in May, June and July 2014 after Board Walk Empire S3 (I expect wil start in February or March.) finished.
The series premieres at May 11th!

Eva Green, Rory Kinnear, Timothy Dalton, Helen McCrory and (Bond villain to be?) Simon Russell Beale coming your way from 11th May.
EDIT: perhaps I found them, let's see if it works like this

I can't make them bigger, though.
In the meantime, Neal Street are pinning their hopes on a co-production with US cable channel Showtime. A psychological horror set in Victorian London, Penny Dreadful will weave together literary characters such as Dr Frankenstein and Dorian Gray. It’s being shot in Ireland with a cast including Hollywood star Josh Harnett, Rory Kinnear, Helen McCrory and Billie Piper. The writer is three-time Oscar- nominated John Logan (Hugo, The Aviator, Gladiator), who also wrote Skyfall.
To make sure it’s properly terrifying, they’ve hired the Spanish film-maker Juan Antonio Bayona, who directed The Orphanage, a very clever take on the classic haunted-house genre.
I ask Mendes if the high-wattage line-up comes down to his excellent contacts book, but he says not. “We’re asking these people potentially to sign their lives away for five years if it’s a success. It’s a vote of confidence in the script to get stars of that calibre signing up.”

PENNY DREADFUL is one, singular series -- of which the creators hope to produce at least five seasons.
Show/program(me) = "SERIES"
Each Year New Episodes of a Series Appear = "SEASON"
Want to know why we Yanks are correct on this point?
Why do Brits call a limited multi-episode show a "mini-series". So there!
Because it is. I don't mean to cause any personal offence to Americans but it's no wonder why the rest of the world consider the general American to be so ignorant and uncultured.
This will definitely tide Bond fans over till the next film comes out.
This looks really good, and not just because of Dalton. Other horror shows like The Walking Dead & American Horror Story have not interested me, even as a fan of all things horror, this has.

I will have to try to watch this one somehow.
Has anyone seen anything of this yet? I actually did not read when the premiere is/was ...
Okay, I just read in an earlier post premiere was May 11th. Who has seen it? Do tell, please. :)
I watched a minute of it online, then closed out so the latest episode of 'Game of Thrones' would buffer faster, but so far, I've heard excellent things.
Here is the review I read:
