ABC Cuts Original Episode Order for New Drama Series NOTORIOUS

According to Variety, ABC has cut its original 13-episode order for its new drama series NOTORIOUS to 10 episodes. As of now, the series has not been cancelled.

According to sources, the network is retaining actor options. All 10 episodes are expected to air on the network.

"NOTORIOUS" centers on the symbiotic relationship between charismatic defense attorney Jake Gregorian (Daniel Sunjata) and powerhouse TV producer Julia George (Piper Perabo), as they attempt to control the media, the justice system and ultimately each other.

Jake and Julia's relationship is inspired by the real-life friendship between famed criminal defense attorney Mark Geragos and award-winning cable newsproducer Wendy Walker. Their professional alliance has influenced some of America's MOST INFAMOUS moments in recent history.

When Jake's clients find themselves in the nation's spotlight, he uses the media to sway public opinion. Meanwhile, Julia, the executive producer of "Louise Herrick Live" (LHL), the number one TV news program in the country, capitalizes on Jake's clients' notoriety. Together, they make great TV and determine the nation's headlines.

In "Notorious," everyone's motives are suspect and morality is subjective. Meanwhile, the people surrounding Jake and Julia seek to advance their own professional and personal agendas.
