Maybe there's still hope for broadcast TV

NBC orders 10 scripted pilots

Hopefully, NBC's order of 10 scripted pilots will lead to a slowdown in the reality garbage that the networks have been throwing at us.  It's not necessarily a radical move for NBC, since they don't have a lot to lose as they sit at the bottom of the ratings ladder.   

Let's just hope the shows they're ordering are based on viable story lines supported by good writing.  Otherwise, we might be wishing some of the reality shows they'll replace would come back.

Time will tell.
