According to Deadline.com, NBC has just picked up a still untitled Western series that's being produced by stage and screen star Sean Hayes. Written by Kerry Ehrin, the project is about 'Jacob Morris, a young, eccentric East Coast doctor of mental disorders who moves to a primitive Western town at the foot of the Colorado Rockies. There he immediately stands out as he doesn't fight with a gun but rather uses new theories that are being practiced in the East.'

Hayes is best known for his role as Jack McFarland in the NBC sitcom Will & Grace, for which he won an Emmy Award, four SAG Awards, one American Comedy Award, and six Golden Globes nominations. Hayes made his Broadway debut alongside Kristin Chenoweth in the April 2010 Broadway revival of the musical Promises, Promises.

He has received a nomination for the Drama League Award for Distinguished Performance. He was also nominated for a Tony Award for Best Actor in a Musical.
