Hate Crimes Character Procedural from Katie Couric Receives Pilot Order at CBS

CBS has given a pilot order to a character-based procedural from writer Jenny Lumet (Rachel Getting Married) and producers Katie Couric, David Marshall Grant (Brothers & Sisters), Alex Kurtzman and Heather Kadin. CBS TV Studios, where Kurtzman’s company Secret Hideout is under an overall deal, is the studio.

Penned by Lumet with Grant supervising, the untitled drama is being informally described as “The Good Wife meets Homicide.” It centers on an elite team of investigators for the Northeast Regional U.S. Hate Crimes Unit who solve a myriad of crimes against humanity as they confront their own biases.

The Jenny Lumet project was one of the biggest drama buys this season for CBS, which landed the pitch with a put pilot commitment in a bidding situation with another network.
