LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - TNT has picked up Steven Bochco's pilot "Raising the Bar," a legal drama, for series development.


The cable network has ordered 10 episodes of the drama starring Jane Kaczmarek, Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Gloria Reuben, which revolves around young lawyers who have been friends since law school but now work on opposing sides.

Created by Bochco and lawyer-writer David Feige, author of the 2006 book "Indefensible," the project co-stars Melissa Sagemiller, Currie Graham, Teddy Sears, J. August Richards and Jonathan Scarfe.

Bochco's son, director Jesse Bochco, helmed the pilot for "Bar," which was written by Feige. Steven Bochco -- whose numerous credits include "Hill Street Blues" and "NYPD Blue" -- is executive producing the series.
