While David E. Kelley's Ally McBeal garnered more attention, Picket Fences garnered more acclaim. Set in Wisconsin, the Emmy-winning drama plays like The Andy Griffith Show by way of The Commish. The focus is on small-town life from a law and order perspective. The action revolves around Sheriff Jimmy Brock (Tom Skerritt), his physician wife Jill (Kathy Baker), and their children, Kimberly (Holly Marie Combs), Matthew (Justin Shenkarow), and Zack (Adam Wylie). Storylines alternate between personal issues, like puberty and pre-marital sex, and criminal cases. As Matthew quips, "Things happen around here." At city hall, Jimmy is joined by officers Kenny (Costas Mandylor) and Max (Lauren Holly), dispatcher Ginny (Zelda Rubinstein), and coroner Carter Pike (Kelly Connell), who likes to exclaim, "Let me exhume the body!" The courthouse is dominated by Judge Henry Bone (Ray Walston) and attorney Douglas Wambaugh, played by Fyvush Finkel (Baker, Skerritt, Walston, and Finkel all won Emmys for their work.) Cases include tragi-comic crimes, such as a serial bather ("Frank, the Potato Man") and a cupid killer ("Be My Valentine"), but more serious issues also come into play, such as assisted suicide ("Sacred Hearts") and incest ("Nuclear Meltdowns").

David E. Kelley? He is making a no doubt shitty US version of Life on Mars!

But this didn't get picked up right?

I saw someone say this elsewhere, but there couldn't possibly have been a pilot. No casting news or anything was ever released. Being that the show just recently ended in the UK, it probably only began development very recently. I wouldn't expect it until at least mid-year, or next season.

Then again, the show would have to be very very retooled, so maybe the network just didn't like the very basic changes that would need to be made.

iirc it is coming but not this fall. It wasn't part of the whole pilot choosing stuff last month. It's a show a bit farther off. Mid-season or 2008, not sure which.

I'm noticing a pattern in all of MAF's current posts

1. MSNBC marketing
2. Advocation of TV shows that don't feature African Americans

The white picket fence says it all $:-\$
