Tales of the City (miniseries)
''Tales of the City'' is a 1993 television miniseries based on the first of the ''Tales of the City'' series of novels by Armistead Maupin.
To date, the first three books have been adapted into television miniseries; the first, ''Tales of the City'', was produced by the UK's Channel 4 and was first screened in the UK in 1993, then shown on PBS in the US in January 1994. Channel 4 eventually teamed up with the American cable network Showtime to produce the sequel, ''More Tales of the City'', which premiered in the US and UK in 1998. The third installment of the series, ''Further Tales of the City'' was produced by Showtime (without Channel 4) and was originally aired in the US on Showtime in May 2001.
==First production attempt==
Premium cable channel HBO acquired the rights to the first two ''Tales of the City'' books in 1982 in the hopes of turning them into a weekly sitcom. Pre-production began in the fall of that year with a pilot script by Richard Kramer. Kramer described the script as a "''Mary Tyler Moore'' for the '80s". In the face of the rising AIDS epidemic and a changing social climate in the conservative Reagan era, HBO reportedly felt that the book's celebratory attitude toward homosexuality, casual sex and marijuana usage would not be deemed acceptable by the viewing public. The channel considered toning down the stories and making the series a period piece but ultimately decided to scrap the project.
