TNT picks up David E. Kelley's 'Monday Mornings' for 2013
8 May 2012 3:10 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
TNT has ordered David E. Kelley's medical drama "Monday Mornings" to series, giving the prolific writer-producer his first show on cable.
The series, previously known as "Chelsea General," will debut next year on TNT and follow a group of doctors in their professional and personal lives, centering on their morbidity and mortality conferences that take place every Monday (hence the title). Kelley co-created the show with neurosurgeon and CNN regular Dr. Sanjay Gupta; it's based on Gupta's book of the same name.
The show stars Alfred Molina ("Law & Order: La"), Ving Rhames ("Mission: Impossible," "Pulp Fiction), Jamie Bamber ("Battlestar Galactica"), Jennifer Finnigan ("Better With You"), Keong Sim ("Glee"), Emily Swallow ("Southland," "Ringer"), Bill Irwin ("CSI") and Sarayu Rao ("Sons of Tucson").
"Monday Mornings" will be the first medical drama for TNT since it canceled "Hawthorne" last year. It's scheduled to premiere in summer 2013. »

USA Pilots ‘Wild Card’ & ‘Over/Under’ Not Going Forward
28 March 2012 1:00 PM, PDT | Deadline TV | See recent Deadline TV news »
USA Network has made it official — drama pilots Over/Under and Wild Card will not be going forward. The pilots had been in limbo since they were screened by USA brass back in November. Over/Under, in particular, had strong supporters at USA, but its darker tones reportedly divided the network brass. The chances for both pilots got even dimmer when USA in January gave a straight-to-series, six-episode order to Greg Berlanti’s Political Animals, which will launch in the summer when USA would’ve premiered a newly picked-up drama. Wild Card, starring Jennifer Finnigan and Ben Lawson, and Over/Under, starring Steven Pasquale, were two of three drama pilots USA greenlighted back in November 2010. Last year, the network passed on the third pilot from that group, Eden. USA has two other pilots still in contention: an untitled drama from White Collar creator Jeff Eastin drama and a comedy starring Nathan Lane. »
