Scott Bakula to Lead Detective Drama In the Works at CBS

Scott Bakula will make his return to CBS with an untitled procedural detective drama from Dean Devlin's Electric Entertainment. The "NCIS: New Orleans" alum is set to star and executive produce the high-concept detective procedural set in Los Angeles, which is still in early development at CBS. Michael Sussman will write and executive produce the series, reuniting with Bakula after working together on "Star Trek: Enterprise." The series has been described as quite a "leap" from his character on "NCIS," nodding to his four-time Emmy-nominated performance in "Quantum Leap." . . .
