NEW AMAZON SERIES: HISTORICAL 'POINT OF HONOUR' WITH CHRISTOPHER O'SHEA, NATHAN PARSONS, 'MAD DOGS' WITH BILLY ZANE, BEN CHAPLIN, STEVE ZAHN! NEW 'TESTAMENT OF YOUTH' TRAILER WITH KIT HARINGTON, ALICIA VIKANDER

NEW AMAZON'S SERIES
HISTORICAL 'POINT OF HONOUR'
In today's TV news, Amazon has announced their series pilots for 2015, among which we shall watch MAD DOGS and POINT OF HONOUR! The later one is set at the start of the Civil War, when a Virginia family, led by their West Point bred son, John Rhodes (Nathan Parsons), makes the controversial decision to defend the South while freeing all of their slaves. At battle against his northern brethren and his best friend and brother in-law Robert Sumner (Christopher O’Shea), John leaves his three strong willed sisters at home to run the plantation that is now without a free labour source. The choice to protect the life they have always known and defend the moral high ground will pit the family against one another and test their strength, courage and love. Annabelle Stephenson, Riley Voelkel, Patrick Heusinger, Luke Benward, Lucien Laviscount also star! 

'MAD DOGS'
Based on deeply suspenseful UK series, MAD DOGS will follow the twisted reunion of a group of underachieving forty something friends who are all at different crossroads in their lives. Celebrating the early retirement of an old friend at his gorgeous Belize villa, grudges begin to emerge and secrets explode as their trip becomes a labyrinthine nightmare of lies, deception and murder. It is a twisted tale of friendship put to the ultimate test. As an inconceivable chain of events unfolds, cracks within the group widen before the friends realize that the only people they can trust are each other, the last people they want to be relying on. Steve Zahn, Billy Zane, Romany Malco, Michael Imperioli and Ben Chaplin play the friends! I have to admit that I kinda liked the casting of the British series much better than the ensemble in the American version!
