HBO picks up Alan Ball's New Series

HBO has ordered another morbid pilot from Alan Ball, the man who brought the network Six Feet Under and True Blood. All Signs of Death, based on Charlie Huston’s 2009 crime noir book The Mystic Arts of Erasing All Signs of Death is a Los Angeles-set black comedy featuring “an inveterate twenty-something slacker who stumbles into a career as a crime scene cleaner, only to find himself entangled with a murder mystery, a femme fatale and the loose ends of his own past.”
