HBO and actor-producer Tom Hanks think Utah polygamists are ready for prime time.

Hanks, along with the television network that made a household name of "The Sopranos," is producing "Big Love," a new drama series about a Utah polygamist and his three wives that will premiere sometime in the summer of 2005, according to HBO, which approved the project Monday.

Hanks also produced the HBO miniseries "Band of Brothers" and "From the Earth to the Moon." HBO received 124 nominations for the upcoming Emmy Awards, far more than any other network.
