Brotherhood to return for 2nd season

PROVIDENCE -- Brotherhood will be staying in the 'hood -- at least for another year.

The Showtime drama series, shot entirely in Rhode Island, has been picked up for a second season, a Showtime spokesman said today.

There were 11 episodes aired on the cable network this year, with the season finale scheduled for this Sunday. Filming for the next season will probably begin in April, according to Showtime. Ten new episodes will start to be aired next summer.

The hour-long drama tells the story of two brothers, politician Tommy Caffee (Jason Clarke) and gangster Michael Caffee (Jason Isaacs), who live in a fictional Irish neighborhood in Providence called The Hill.
