The station, otherwise known as the National Broadcasting
Company, has picked up a half-hour pilot called I Hate That I Love
You, which focuses around a lesbian couple.
According to AfterEllen.com, the romantic comedy is the brainchild
of Jhoni Marchenko - the writer, producer and Emmy recipient for
Will & Grace, which was considered a latter-day breakthrough
for American television.
The show is said to feature a pregnancy as part of the pair's
relationship.
The news follows other recent reports which suggest that NBC will
also commission a second lesbian-themed show tentatively called My
Best Friend Is A Lesbo.
This will apparently focus on two female friends, one of which is
a lesbian, both aiming to help each other through "life, love, and
dating," according to the Hollywood Reporter.
