DEVELOPMENT STAGE: ordered to pilot |
DESCRIPTION: (from ABC's press release, March 2010) Friends. Partners. Lovers. Ten years ago, these San Francisco detectives were everything to each other. They rode together, protected each other and never let anything come between them. Times have changed and they've fallen out of touch. Now the murder of one of their own is about to bring them back together. When tough, charismatic cop Kevin Ulster is shot point blank in his own apartment, his old friends and colleagues regroup to investigate the case. They owe it to him. Ten years ago, he taught them everything they know. Even though they've drifted apart, the Mission Crew is still tight and they refuse to let Kevin's murder investigation get buried. Joining forces, this investigative team will work side-by-side on new cases while they struggle to uncover the truth behind Ulster's death. With their long history together, each new investigation will force the crew to revisit old wounds, reignite past passions and rediscover what made them a force to be remembered. It's a good thing they have each other, because while they look for the truth... someone else is keeping a close eye on them. Boomtown's Chris Brancato and Berte Salke, along with Dirty Sexy Money's Jon Feldman, deliver an atmospheric, character-driven police drama that's part The Big Chill and part NYPD Blue. Sometimes old friends are the only friends you've got. |
