NBC is probably feeling left out, since there are DC Comics series at FOX, CBS, and The CW, so it’s probably only natural that the next DC TV project would be in development for them.
The next project, though, is a workplace comedy.
Here’s how Deadline describes it:
Based on characters from DC Comics, Powerless is a workplace comedy set at one of the worst insurance companies in America — with the twist being that it also takes place in the universe of DC Comics. The show is about the reality of working life for a normal, powerless person in a world of superheroes and villains.
The good news? Powerless comes from Ben Queen, the creator of A to Z who would put references to things like the Wolfman/Perez New Teen Titans in his show. In other words, he knows his stuff. How this will play out should be interesting. Right now, Powerless is just a “pilot production commitment,” but of course if the pilot goes well, it could go to series.

The premise sounds good I hope it does get made. NBC is a good place for it because they had The Office, 30 Rock, and Parks and Recs and all three are workplace comedies.
Craig…………sounds like a fun show…………will share this site with David M.
