Miranda’s Rights & Midnight Texas - Legal Soap & Supernatural Drama Pilots Ordered by NBC

Launching a primetime soap was one of NBC’s priorities for this development season, with a number of scripts ordered. Now Miranda’s Rights has become the first such project to get a pilot pickup. The network also has given a pilot green light to Midnight Texas, looking to expand the genre universe of veteran Grimm with a supernatural drama based on best-selling trilogy from the author of the Sookie Stackhouse series Charlaine Harris that were the base for HBO’s vampire drama True Blood. Both projects come from NBC sibling Universal Television.

Written/co-executive produced by Katie Lovejoy and executive produced by John Glenn, Miranda’s Rights is a one-hour legal soap about an idealistic group of lawyers who not only work together but live together at their start-up firm.

Written/executive produced by Monica Owusu-Breen and executive produced by David Janollari, Midnight Texas is described as Twin Peaks meets True Blood in Midnight, Texas, a remote town where your neighbor could be a vampire, a witch, a werewolf, and even an angel. Mystery, horror and romance combine to both enthrall and frighten any outsiders who decide to venture into this unusual place.
