Showtime says it has ordered a U.S. docu-series called "Time of Death," which will follow a group of terminally ill people shortly before they die.

"This is not an easy show, but it is a subject I've always wanted to be able to explore in detail. And I know it will make for a powerful and compelling viewing experience."
"Producing 'Time of Death' has been one of the most intense and thought-provoking experiences of our careers," producer Jane Lipsitz said.
"This is a series about death but it's also about life and living and humor and love. It's a brave series to do and we are thankful Showtime has given us the opportunity to tell these stories," producer Dan Cutforth said.
"Time of Death" is in post-production for a fall debut on Showtime.
