Add Josh Schwartz to the list of drama heavy hitters whose projects were picked up to pilot by ABC today. The network has greenlighted Georgetown (formerly Inner Circle). The hourlong project, written by Remember Me scribe Will Fetters, is described as a sexy soap centered around the young people behind the power brokers of Washington, DC. It hails from Schwartz and Stephanie Savage’s Fake Empire and Warner Bros. TV. Schwartz, Myers, Savage and Fake Empire’s Len Goldstein are executive producing, with Fetters co-executive producing. Journalist Ashley Parker serves as consultant. This is Fetters’ first foray into TV. On the feature side, he also wrote the Zach Efron starrer The Lucky One, which just wrapped, and his rewrite of A Star Is Born recently attracted Clint Eastwood as director and Beyonce as star.

It looks like Paul Lee is trying to turn ABC into the old WB network.
I don’t agree completely with your opinion, but afterall he run ABC Family.
=Fail.
This is going to be a good one
Love everyone involved, but this is a concept that sells every year — and fails every year.
Put it on a cable network and you never know…
But young people don’t wanna watch Washington on network tv — and old people don’t wanna watch young people banging and taking away their health care.
awesome…and totally f-n’ true.
THIS IS PERFECT!!!!! YOU ARE PERFECT!!!!!!
I haven’t read all the recent news yet and all I’ve seen selling pilots are white male writers. One female writer. ONE!!! And from the reaction alone on this bit of news, the ideas SUCK. This is what happens with inbreeding. Jez, throw some color in there for crying out loud.
I’m all for minorities and people in general but every time a tv pilot gets announced on here someone says “another pilot from a white middle aged man”. Its almost like a tic. Anyway, speaking of which, won’t this piss Shondra off about her new show?
I guess it’s time for you ladies to stop pitching “Chicks and Dicks”… oh wait, Fox picked that up. I guess thats diversity 1, bad ideas 35.
The 00-10 years have been dominated by 11 yr olds in your biz: toilet jokes and boobs… Here’s a new project that’s already missed the mark. “Georgetown” was cool in the 1960′s. No one outside the beltway gets this very cool city.
Even if it’s a good show, look at what netowrk its going to be on!
