John From Cincinnati is an American television drama, set against the surfing community of Imperial Beach, California. It is set to be broadcast on HBO. It is the result of a collaborative effort between writers David Milch and Kem Nunn, whose novels have been termed surf noir. The series began filming in October, 2006, with a scheduled premiere on June 10, 2007.
The series will star Bruce Greenwood, Austin Nichols, Rebecca De Mornay, Luke Perry, Brian Van Holt, Dayton Callie, Jim Beaver, Garrett Dillahunt, Willie Garson, Luis Guzmán, Emily Rose, and Ed O'Neill among others. Milch is an established name in television production; he created Deadwood and co-created NYPD Blue.
The series includes surfing sequences by well respected surfers Brock Little, Keala Kennelly, Dan Malloy, John-John Florence, Shane Beschen and Herbie Fletcher.
The program deals with a strange young man of mysterious origin and the effect he has on a community and in particular a dysfunctional family of professional surfers.
HBO is currently running a subtle street promotion campaign using standard issue lost pet and for sale signs posted on phone poles in parts of Chicago to promote awareness of the name of the show.
HBO's trailer for the show is set to "The Perfect Ending" by Harriet Street.
