Inspired by Bellevue, the oldest public hospital in America, this unique medical drama follows the brilliant and charming Dr. Max Goodwin, the institution's newest medical director who sets out to tear up the bureaucracy and provide exceptional care. How can he help? Well, the doctors and staff have heard this before. Not taking "no" for an answer, Dr. Goodwin must disrupt the status quo and prove he will stop at nothing to breathe new life into this understaffed, underfunded and underappreciated hospital - the only one in the world capable of treating Ebola patients, prisoners from Rikers and the President of the United States under one roof - and return it to the glory that put it on the map.

The series will follow Alison Wilson, who believes she is happily married until her husband, Alec, dies and a woman shows up on her doorstep claiming to be the real Mrs Wilson. Alison is determined to prove the validity of her own marriage, but is shown some disturbing secrets.

The Indian Detective follows Peters' Doug D'Mello, a charming, smart, ambitious Toronto cop of Indian heritage whose dreams of becoming a homicide detective are put on hold when he is unjustly suspended. While on leave, D'Mello visits his dad in Mumbai, where he gets embroiled in a local case and pursues an impressive and beautiful attorney. As a dangerous investigation unfolds, D'Mello must also grapple with culture shock in a country where, despite his heritage, he is an outsider. Equal doses comedy and high-stakes drama, The Indian Detective marks Russell Peters' first starring role in a scripted television series.

This sci-fi thriller is described as "a gripping global tale of minds linked and souls hunted" and will premiere late next year - presumably, all in one sitting. It was born from a late-night conversation among the Wachowskis, "several years ago," about the ways in which technology is great but also terrible.
