Overview
- CBS has ordered a development writers’ room to advance the untitled medical drama after initially setting up the project in January.
- Jared Padalecki is attached to star as a headstrong doctor who practices improvisational medicine while running a mobile clinic with a young protégé in rural Texas.
- Anna Fricke is writing and executive producing via her Pursued by a Bear banner, with Padalecki serving as a non-writing executive producer.
- CBS Studios is producing under Padalecki’s first-look pact and Fricke’s overall deal, with Laura Terry as executive producer, Genevieve Padalecki as producer, and former manager Dan Spilo no longer involved.
- The move aligns with CBS’s year-round development approach used on Cupertino and Watson, and the series has no set premiere season.
