James Hibberd says that NBC is in negotiations with John Grisham and
indie company eOne Television for a series based on Grisham's book
"The Firm," which would go to air this fall without a pilot--Grisham
and eOne have a former "L&O" producer on board as showrunner, but they
want a 22-ep order and retaining overseas syndication rights, which
NBCUKabletown may not want (not to mention the fact that this may be
more of a fit with a high-end cable network than the home of "Biggest
Loser" and "The Voice"):
