Finally some good news post-US strike, this time for fans of Women’s Murder Club.
US network ABC has replaced the creators Elizabeth Craft and Sarah Fain who left the series this month, with a new showrunner, Robert Nathan.
Nathan, whose credits include Law & Order, will now oversee production on the show, meaning it could be back on the air in the US by April. A positive sign, given the show was almost cancelled.
“There are no plans to revamp the series dramatically or shift the emphasis in any way,” 20th Century Fox TV said in a statement. “It remains a procedural focused on the four women leads who partner together to solve crimes.”
NBC, meanwhile, has ordered another six scripts of Lipstick Jungle. Candace Bushnell’s series starring Brooke Shields, Kim Raver and Lindsay Price will air in Australia on the Seven Network.
Women’s Murder Club is based on the series of books by James Patterson and airs in Australia on Network TEN.

Not sure why it was in trouble in the first place as it rated well but I’m ecstatic to see Women’s Murder Club continuing unchanged. It’s an entertaining series and my favorite of the new season. Lipstick Jungle on the other hand is a mess and only getting around 5m in the US so why would NBC bother?
