EXCLUSIVE: Greg Berlanti went 3 for 3 to date this development season having a third major purchase. He's teamed with friend and frequent collaborator Maggie Friedman for any high-concept crime drama project, that has arrived at NBC having a put pilot commitment. Friedman is writing the script from the untitled project, which follows two connected cases that exist in two different cycles. Friedman and Berlanti are executive creating for Warner Bros. TV and studio-based Berlanti Prods. Berlanti has put a higher-concept spin on the classic drama genre before using the ABC legal drama Eli Stone, in regards to a lawyer with prophetic visions. Friedman and Berlanti happen to be close given that they labored together on Dawson’s Creek. They did an airplane pilot for ABC together in 2004, that also was written/professional created by Friedman, professional created by Berlanti and created by Warner Bros. And Friedman offered like a talking to producer on Berlanti’s WB/Warner Bros. series Jack & Bobby. Carrying out a break, Berlanti gone to live in ABC Galleries, where he went Siblings & Siblings and co-produced Eli Stone with no Regular Family. Friedman remained at WBTV, where she developed and executive created the short-resided ABC series Eastwick.

This is actually the third project removed by Berlanti this development season, his first under his new WBTV pact. The 3 have offered with put pilot obligations: one at Fox (legal drama composed by Marc Guggenheim), one at CBS (cop drama at CBS compiled by Nick Wootton) and something at NBC. Oddly enough, the only real network to not snag a Berlanti-created project yet is his former longtime home ABC. Friedman is by using CAA, Berlanti with WME.
