The CW has announced four pilot pickups, including one from
Gossip Girl showrunners Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage:
"Hart of Dixie": From Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage ('Gossip Girl'), 'Dixie' follows a New York City doctor who inherits a practice in a small Southern town inhabited by an eclectic and eccentric group of characters.
"Heavenly": From Richard Hatem ('Supernatural'), the legal drama follows the team of a young female attorney and a former angel who tackle cases together. The show will find the fallen angel dealing with his newfound human feelings and emotions “sometimes to hilarious effect.”
"Awakening": A coming of age tale about two sisters who are also in the midst of a zombie uprising. William Laurin ('1-800-Missing'), Glenn Davis, Howard T. Owens, Carolyn Bernstein and Todd Cohen are executive producing.
"Cooper & Stone": The cop drama follows two smart young female detectives on Chicago's North Side who are best friends, and equally adept at discussing fashion, music, pop culture as they are solving homicides. They’ll investigate murders while attempting to keep blood off of their expensive shoes and making witty references to the current big names in entertainment. Laurie Arent ('Boomtown,' 'Life') is executive producing.
