This is an implementation for casting a string to a series -

>>> abc = 'some string'
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> abc_series = pd.Series(abc)
>>> type(abc_series)
<class 'pandas.core.series.Series'>

Is your string a representation of a series like "0 1\nName: My_Series, dtype: int64"? You didn't clarify. If this is what you meant I've found no direct way of doing this, though this seems to be close enough:

import io

a = "0    1\nName: My_Series, dtype: int64"
_f = io.StringIO('\n'.join(a.split('\n')[:-1]))
pd.read_csv(_f, header=None, index_col=0, sep=r'\s+')
