worked on FOX's upcoming "Wonderfalls," "John Doe" and "Roswell," are

Dozen").
The Attanasio pilot will focus on a team of doctors who diagnose cases that
baffle other medical professionals. He will executive producing with Katie
Jacobs and writer David Shore ("Family Law," CBS' Attanasio-produced
"Century City"). FOX had previously given the series a put pilot order.
CBS, meanwhile, has greenlit pilots for "Numbers," about an MIT
mathematician who helps the FBI crack cases, and an untitled show about a
father and two sons who work as bounty hunters.

written by Cheryl Heuton and Nick Falacci. The bounty-hunter pilot was
written by Terri Hughes and Ron Milbauer ("Idle Hands") and is set up at
Spelling TV.
