HOLLYWOOD (Variety) - David E. Kelley isn't wasting any time jumping back
into the series development game.
While his Fox drama "Girls Club" failed to ignite much interest among
viewers earlier this fall, the Emmy-winning writer-producer of "Boston
Public (news - Y! TV)" and "The Practice" has already penned a pilot
script for a new hourlong drama, and it's being shopped to potential
network buyers for the 2003-04 season. Details are few, but insiders say
it's a family drama built around an Irish-American clan.
Under the terms of 20th Century Fox TV and Fox Broadcasting's mammoth
multiyear deal with Kelley, the Fox network has a first-look right to any
Kelley-created project. But both the scribe and Fox Entertainment
president Gail Berman quickly decided the project wasn't right for Fox. As
a result, Kelley's reps have taken the project to the open market.
Several networks have already expressed interest in the script, which
would be produced by 20th Century Fox TV and David E. Kelley Prods. and
will no doubt fetch a major financial commitment. The good news for the
Fox network: Kelley's nothing if not prolific. In addition to the family
drama, industry insiders believe he will find time to create another show
-- this one targeted for Fox's 2003-04 schedule.
