The network has picked up two projects – Dean Georgaris’ agent drama The Blank Slate and The Irrational, Arika Mittman’s adaptation of book Predictably Irrational, to pilot.
Written by The Brave creator Georgaris, Blank Slate is a high-concept procedural about a government agent who may not be what he seems.
Special Agent Alexander McCoy is a legend in law enforcement, the agent we all hope is out there, the agent we’d all like to be. The only issue is … he doesn’t actually exist. He’s a ghost, a phantom. So what happens when a man claiming to be Alexander McCoy walks through the door with all of his skills and knowledge, but with an agenda nobody will see coming.
Meanwhile, The Irrational is an investigative thriller from Mittman, an exec producer on NBC breakout hit La Brea. An adaptation of Dan Ariely’s book, it follows a world-renowned professor of behavioral science, who lends his expertise to an array of high-stakes cases involving governments, law enforcement, and corporations with his unique and unexpected approach to understanding human behavior.
