New NBC Shows

NBC has given series orders to the following:

Line of Fire: Starring Peter Krause, Hope Davis, Kat Cunning, Tommy O’Brien, Taylor Bloom, and Charlie Bartnett, this drama series is described as, “A family of law enforcement agents bridges personal differences and crosses professional boundaries as they tackle cases for the FBI, U.S Marshals, Secret Service, and Department of Justice. After a seemingly cut-and-dry case turns into a deadly conspiracy, they must use the expertise from a lifetime of protecting civilians and politicians to protect one another and bring the killer to justice … even if it means betraying their sworn code.” It is written by Josh Safran who also produces alongside Jenna Bush Hager and Ben Spector.

The Rockord Files: A reboot of the classic series of the same name would star David Boreanaz in the lead, with Michaela McManus, Jacki Weaver, and Felix Solis supporting. It’s described like so: “A contemporary update on the classic series of the same name. Newly paroled after doing time for a crime he didn’t commit, James Rockford returns to his life as a private investigator using his charm and wit to solve cases around Los Angeles. It doesn’t take long for his quest for legitimacy to land him squarely in the crosshairs of both local police and organized crime.”

Newlyweds: Tea Leoni and Tim Daly lead this single-camera comedy pilot about a couple who marry on the fly, and Jamie Lee Curtis recurs. “A later-in-life love story about a free-spirited woman and a buttoned-up professor who marry impetuously after a whirlwind courtship,” reads the description.

Sunset P.I.: Starring Jake Johnson, the new project hails from Dan Goor and Luke Del Tredici and would feature Jake Johnson, Keith David, and Jane Levy as private investigators in Los Angeles. The description tells us, “Continues the proud tradition of Los Angeles private eyes that began with Philip Marlowe and will end with this show.”

The Traitors: A new civilian-only season of the reality competition series is coming, with Alan Cumming returning to host.

Wordle: A new game show, hosted by Savannah Guthrie and based on the digital game of the same name, is also coming to the network. “The new format challenges players to solve five-letter word puzzles in a supersized battle of smarts, speedand fun. It builds on the way the puzzle community engages with Wordle every day—solving together,sharing wins, debating strategies and cheering one another on. Now, that style of play comes to life as themost-obsessed and competitive players will team up in squads and go head-to-head in the “Wordle” arena,playing for an incredible cash prize,” the description reads. It is expected to arrive on the network in 2027.
