In Hollywood almost everyone knows that pilots don't always lead to actual series, and those that do are often cancelled after a few episodes. So there's no guarantee the public will ever see any of these shows, but fans may be interested in what is brewing in the minds of the major studios.
Boldly Going Nowhere, Fox
Storyline: This pilot centers on the crew of a spaceship led by a rogue captain. The stories explore what happens between the adventures and how the crew members take care of daily routine things on the spaceship.
This pilot is from the people behind "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia," so there is experience on their side and comedy. Since it is slanted for Fox it may be more family friendly.
Legally Mad, NBC
Storyline: Legal drama centering on a high-end Chicago law firm and the legal and social drama that surrounds the founding partners and their associates.
Kenny Ortega, of High School Musical and Newsies fame, is directing the pilot.
The Middle, ABC
Storyline: This pilot explores the life of an extended lower middle-class family in the Midwest through the eyes of the mother.
It is just one of the many shows in development about the "middle class", even though statistics point to that group getting smaller and smaller
Limelight, ABC
Storyline: This pilot revolves around talented students and faculty at an innovative performing-arts school in New York, where students explore the combustible blend of contemporary music and dance while balancing their dreams, hopes and struggles.
Can anyone say, Fame?
We will see if any of these ever reach our television sets.
