A Year To Remember - Procedural Telenovela Adaptation in Development at NBC

NBC has given a script plus penalty commitment to A Year To Remember, a drama based on the Telefe telenovela Un Año Para Recordar, from Aaron Kaplan’s Kapital Entertainment and Telefe USA. This marks the first network sale for Telefe USA since the LA-based outpost of Argentina’s largest broadcaster, Telefe, was launched in March.

The adaptation, written by Michael Folley (How To Get Away with Murder), is a crime procedural that centers on a Boston Homicide Detective who’s confronted by her husband over an affair she’s having with her partner. In their ensuing fight, she accidentally kills him – only to wake the next day to find it’s a year earlier — her husband still alive, the affair not yet begun. Given a second chance, she must somehow find a way to keep the memory of that tragic night from becoming reality.

Foley executive produces with Kaplan, Dana Honor, Telefe USA head Diego Piasek and Telefe’s global content chief Tomás Yankelevich.

Two Telefe formats have been successfully adapted on U.S. broadcast networks before with Ugly Betty and Jane the Virgin, both produced by Ben Silverman.
