Eliza Dushku To Star In TNT Pilot 'Bird Dog'

[WyldeMan45]

Always enjoy me some Eliza Dushku, and TNT is known to really give their shows even struggling ones a real shot, so this sounds like something that might have a chance. But for me it will definitely hinge on who's cast as her father as well, I recommend Clancy Brown . Interestingly, I've read about quite a few shows that seem to be heading up my way, probably just so they can shoot in Canada and call it Washington.

Dollhouse star Eliza Dushku is returning to series television as the female lead in Mike Robe's TNT drama pilot 'Bird Dog' a mystery fashioned around an unlikely partnership of two cops who happen to be father and daughter. It centers on Gail McGrath (Dushku), who followed in her father's footsteps in becoming a police officer but had little else in common with him. She left the big city she had grown up in to move to a small Pacific Northwestern town where she was patrolling the streets until her dad, a NYC cop, showed up on her front doorstep to join her as her new partner. Now this father-daughter team, call sign "Bird Dog," is being put to the test -- not only in solving crimes, but with each other. Robe wrote the script and is directing the pilot. Warner Horizon is producing. Buffy the Vampire Slayer alumna Dushku, repped by UTA and the Collective, recently guest starred in a highly-rated episode of The Big Bang Theory.
