Development edit

While originally intended to air on NBC midseason in the 2009–10 television season with a thirteen-episode order, it was reported on October 1, 2009, that the episode order had been reduced to four and would air as a mini-series.[5] On January 10, 2010, it was announced that only the pilot would air, as a television movie. The NBC President of prime-time entertainment told the Television Critics Association that "it will be a pilot where you could see where it could go in series, but there will be a resolve at the end of the two hours. If the TV movie performs well the story may be continued."[6] On May 16, 2010, Entertainment Weekly reported that the show would likely never air.[4]
