NBC greenlights ‘Law & Order’ live reality series

This isn’t exactly what we were hoping for when it comes to Law & Order. Rather than reviving the crime drama, NBC and Dick Wolf have decided to greenlight a reality show inspired by it.

The series is called Law & Order: You The Jury, which will have live elements, as well as interactive parts for the audiences at home, reports Deadline. The project comes from Wolf, who created Law & Order, and reality producer Magical Wolves.

In You The Jury, audiences at home will be presented with a real-life legal case and will be allowed to vote on the believability of witnesses and the evidence during the trial.

Wolf also worked on Crime & Punishment for NBC in 2002. His company is also producing Cold Justice and Cold Justice: Sex Crimes at TNT and Nightwatch and Dead Again at A&E.

Currently, Law & Order: SVU is the only incarnation of L&O that’s on TV. Wolf also produces the Chicago franchise and is planning a mega-crossover with Chicago Fire, Chicago PD, SVU and the new Chicago Med this season.

There have been rumors for months that the main Law & Order series could get a limited series revival, but Wolf said in August that it would be really hard to get everyone’s schedules in line to make it work.
