This one sounds cool, but sadly sci-fi shows rarely thrive on network tv. This would probably be more successful in cable.

This sort of sounds like a "Golden Girls" esc comedy. I'd like to see this see the light of day.

I'd love to the westerns return to network tv, there hasn't been one arguably since Dr. Quinn and this one sounds good, but for some reason, I think Westerns are more suited for CBS, than NBC.

May not be the most creative, but I dig it.

So is this sort of like a Female version of Big Bang Theory? If this gets picked up, I can see this getting the post Big Bang Slot.

FOX: It's Messy

Kaling wrote the single-camera comedy, in which she stars as a young Bridget Jones-type Ob/Gyn doctor balancing personal and professional life, surrounded by quirky co-workers in a small office. The project, which she executive produces with Howard Klein, has a personal element — Kaling herself is the daughter of an ob/gyn mother and an architect father. If the project goes to series, Kaling won’t be able to return to The Office next season.
