NBC starts planning 2015- 2016 with JLO

  There is one less drama slot open for NBC's Fall 2015 season. In a somewhat unprecedented move, NBC has given a 13-episode straight-to-series order to Shades Of Blue. Shades of Blue is a drama that will star Jennifer Lopez, she will also executive produce with her American Idol co-star Ryan Seacrest. Shades of Blue is a complex police series that
centers on Harlee McCord (Lopez), a single mother and detective recruited to work undercover for the FBI’s anti-corruption task force. She is apart of a close-knit unit known for its conviction record. However, the story begins when Harlee has become compromised by her colleagues — all of whom have pitched in to help her raise her daughter — and finds herself faced with the moral dilemma of working against her cop brothers in order to redeem herself. This will be the first drama from reality powerhouse RSP’s.

The brass at NBC "We’re especially excited that Jennifer is returning to her acting roots from such great movies as Out of Sight, and they know that she will create this complicated character in a vivid way that will breathe new life into the cop show genre. Ryan Seacrest is part of the NBCU family and doing his first scripted drama series with us makes perfect sense.”

What do you think? Are you excited to see Lopez back on the small screen?

MY FIVE WIVES ON TLC

"One huge plural family" After the raid in Texas, many Americans became aware of polygamy as an alternative lifestyle being practiced secretly all over the U.S. TLC became the first channel to offer viewers an inside look into how polygamy was being practiced by "modern" looking men and women. The network decided to capitalized on the American public's innate fascination with alternative lifestyles and their curiosity with how these all American families; live, interact and find a way to raise and feed households that are often 5 or 6 times the size of the average family.    We got our first look into how normal and yet chaotic their lives were when TLC introduced its viewers to the Brown family; Kody, his four wives, and their seventeen children.
