Exclusive: Two-time Emmy-nominated writer Theresa Rebeck is set to pen The Faithful for Concordia Studio, based on the true story of how a fight over land between St. Stanislaus Church and the St. Louis archdiocese became a battle to define the future of Catholicism. The story is based on the life of Father Marek Bozek.
Concordia’s Jonathan King and Patrick Callan are set as producers. Dan O’Brien is also producing.

The peacock network has lowered the axe on another sitcom. Whitney has been cancelled after two seasons on the air.
The show was a marginal performer last season but was given a second chance anyway. The ratings didn't get any better in season two and actually saw a significant drop -- from a 1.9 in the demo to a 1.2 rating. Total viewership for the second season averaged just 2.65 million viewers.
Whitney stars Whitney Cummings (as a fictional version of herself) and Chris D'Elia as a couple who remain committed to each other but don't want to get married. Other castmembers include Rhea Seehorn, Zoe Lister-Jones, Dan O'Brien, and Tone Bell.
The defacto series finale of Whitney aired on March 27th.

The Fall TV Season presentations for all the new network shows take place this week with the first announced today. Here's a full breakdown of which concepts have made the final list over on NBC.
With Bob Greenblatt having replaced the outgoing Jeff Zucker, NBC is looking to turn around its dismal fortunes and has started by significantly cutting back on a bunch of shows which were simply not performing.

There are twelve new shows in all, half of which are being held until mid-season. In the Fall, the biggest gamble is "Prime Suspect" - the U.S. remake of the iconic British police drama. With only the rarest of exceptions, American remakes of British shows have generally failed...
