Fourteen years after the end of Ally McBeal, Fox is returning to the legal dramedy arena with another female-centered young ensemble. The network has given a script commitment plus penalty to The Underlings, a dramedy from Hart of Dixie creator producer Leila Gerstein and Aaron Kaplan’s Kapital Entertainment.
Written/executive produced by Gerstein, The Underlings is set at a corporate law firm fueled by greed where a group of beleaguered, hapless, assistants, led by a plucky paralegal resolves to right the wrongs of their evil bosses and clients.
Kaplan is executive producing with Dana Honor. The project has been laid off at 20th Century Fox TV.
