Busy Jason Katims ("Friday Night Lights," "Parenthood") is overseeing another drama in development at NBC, this time a modern-day take on "The Wizard of Oz."

"Dorothy Gale" comes from "Friday Night Lights" scribe Bridget Carpenter, who's exec producing; Katims will serve as a nonwriting exec producer with Meryl Poster.

 

Script follows the story of Dorothy, a girl from Kansas who tries to tackle modern-day Manhattan (her version of the Emerald City). Dorothy finds a job in the art world -- and must deal with a wicked boss.
