Finally, on August 4, 2009, Dawn Ostroff announced that the project was officially dead for the CW. After the CW didn't pick up the pilot, the Rothenberg and Robinson tried to promote the potential series to other networks including NBC and ABC. It was reported that NBC liked what they saw, but didn't have space for it and ABC was considering the series for midseason. In the end, no one picked up the series.
