“The L Word” creator Ilene Chaiken developng drama about lesbian doctor couple for NBC
For all of you loyal fans of The L Word who are hoping for a follow-up feature film or miniseries featuring your favorite characters from that late, great Showtime series, this latest tidbit is a good-news, bad-news scenario.
L Word creator Ilene Chaiken is developing a new series for NBC which would put any L Word plans – if there were indeed any – on the back burner.
Deadline Hollywood reports that the project centers on a lesbian couple who are doctors at an inner-city Philadelphia hospital.
This is the second sale this development season for Chaiken, who spent the past eight years at Showtime working on her drama The L Word and its reality offshoot. A character-driven procedural she is writing and executive producing with Joel Silver landed at CBS last week

Great idea. Dr. Sarah Shahi teams up wit Dr Kate Moennig. IM ALL 4IT!
But — instead of an ‘inner-city hospital,how about a really gorgeous hospital in Hawaii,or maybe in Vancouver BC, or — maybe Las Vegas, where Drs Sarah & Kate specialize in treating showgirls. (Guest star: Michelle Williams)
What we DON’T want is for Ms. Chaiken to mix-in social commentary with the eye candy!
