CBS to Develop Police Body Cam Drama with MADAM SECRETARY Producer

CBS is developing a police officer body cam drama series with Glenn Geller, according to Variety.

In the show, currently titled "Body Cam Cop," a cop's heroism inadvertently lands him celebrity status after an on-the-job incident goes viral. He and his new partner are then selected to be part of a pilot program that livestreams body cam footage to the public. However, they soon find their lives complicated when the cameras create unintended consequences on and off the force.

David Grae is writing on the series, and he will executive produce with Geller. The show will be produced by CBS Television Studios.

Last year Grae signed an overall deal with studio and he iss currently an executive producer on the CBS political drama "Madam Secretary."

Geller stepped down as the president of CBS Entertainment last May after suffering a heart attack. He subsequently signed a production deal with CBS.
