Dramedy Murder In Manhattan, about a mother-daughter sleuthing duo, also is not going forward. However, I hear that ABC Studios, which produced the pilot starring Bridget Regan and Annie Potts, is high on it and plans to shop it to cable. With its premise, Murder In Manhattan appears suitable for Lifetime, where ABC Studios successfully migrated another dramedy pilot that narrowly missed at the cut at ABC last year, Devious Maids. ABC is expected to continue with the pass calls tomorrow when it also will pick up its new series and decide the fate of its existing series.

Not necessarily my cup of tea but surprised with the passing, it seemed to be a good fit for ABC. Especially if the quality is there (as it appears with the whole shopping it to pilot thing), it is strange
ReplyDeleteI was really looking forward with this show :( I hope its possible moves to cable works.
ReplyDeleteI was being sarcastic at the time but I'm going to take credit anyway:
