'"The Wire" creator David Simon and Spain's Mediapro ("The Young Pope") are in early development on "A Dry Run," a drama series following members of the Abraham Lincoln Battalion who came to Spain from the U.S. to fight fascism during the Spanish Civil War.'

Wow, if it is well done that will really be something.

I am not interested in the Communist vs Capitalist agenda, but maybe there will be good battle scenes.

Bob,
Where the SCW is concerned, you have to have a little bit of the politics to get a sense of the passion involved on both sides.

Definitely promising.

My first thought is that it will be the typical manichean story, with the Internationals almost saving singlehandlely the poor Natives from the Forces of Evil (tm).

On the other hand the showrunner is David Simon. That is a good thing.
