The 24 legal drama had a pilot script
The idea of using 24’s real time format – every episode covering an hour of the story – in other genres is intriguing. A legal drama seemed suited for it and Coto said that one got as far as a pilot script.“I wasn’t involved in developing them but I know the guys who were developing them,” Coto said. “The legal one got to a script. They just ultimately decided at the last minute, like any pilot, they decided it just wasn’t right. I don’t know much further than that. I think they just got to a script and decided it wasn’t working.”
