ABC’s “NYPD Blue” sequel series will not air this fall, but remains under consideration for midseason, TheWrap has learned.
The police drama was one of the buzziest pilots at the network this season, but it will have to undergo some reshoots and retooling before ABC makes a final verdict later this year.
Written and executive produced by original series writers Matt Olmstead and Nick Wootton, the new drama centers on Andy Sipowicz’s (Dennis Franz in the original 1993 series) son Theo (Fabien Frankel) as he tries to earn his detective shield and work in the 15th squad while investigating his father’s murder.
