TVLine Items: Ealy Leads ABC Drama Pilot, MTV Reboots Cribs and More

Less than a month after ABC reversed its decision to renew Stumptown for a second season, star Michael Ealy is already planning his return to the network via the medical drama pilot Triage, our sister site Deadline reports.

Triage follows a pioneering surgeon named Finley Briar (Midnight, Texas‘ Parisa Fitz-Henley) across three decades working in the same hospital. “With the evolution of medicine as the backdrop, the show explores the interconnected careers, friendships and romances of Finley and her colleagues, and their tenuous relationship with time,” per ABC’s official description.

Ealy will star as neurosurgeon Nathaniel Price, “one of Finley Briar’s closest friends and colleagues with a profound personal connection.”
