Showtime wants to make it a tv-series
http://tv.ign.com/articles/115/1157526p1.htmlIGN said:The script purchased by Showtime was written by Terri Hughes Burton and Ron Milbauer (Eureka). Chew stars Tony Chu, a federal agent that uses his ability to get psychic images from the food he eats to solve bizarre crimes. The world of Chew is unique in that it is set in a time when bird meat is illegal, due to an outbreak of bird flu. In the comics, Chu has also resorted to eating people to help him crack the case. How far Showtime is willing to go to stay true to the comic remains to be seen.
No time frame for the Chew TV show was given.
