In exciting news for TV fans, Vince Gilligan, the creator of the hit series “Breaking Bad,” has just signed a deal with CBS to develop a new show. Teaming up with David Shore, the mastermind behind “House,” Gilligan will bring us an intriguing police drama called “Battle Creek.” Set in the streets of Battle Creek, Michigan, the series will follow two detectives with contrasting perspectives as they collaborate to clean up the city.

Although it seems like a fresh idea, “Battle Creek” is not entirely new. Gilligan originally wrote a script for the show in 2002, but it never got the green light from CBS. Now, with the opportunity to revisit the concept, Gilligan and Shore are writing an updated version of the pilot while also serving as executive producers. The team behind the successful “Breaking Bad,” including Mark Johnson, is also on board for this exciting project.

Sony, the studio behind “Breaking Bad,” has already secured a 13-episode commitment from CBS, showing great confidence in the potential of “Battle Creek” even before the pilot has been shot. Fans can expect the series to premiere during the 2014-2015 season, making it a highly anticipated addition to CBS’s lineup.

As we eagerly await the conclusion of “Breaking Bad,” it’s fantastic news to see Gilligan’s creative juices flowing with not one, but two new projects. In addition to “Battle Creek,” he is also teaming up with Peter Gould, a co-executive producer on “Breaking Bad,” for the prequel spinoff series “Better Call Saul,” centered around the popular character of shady lawyer Saul Goodman.

With such talented individuals behind these new shows, it’s safe to say that our TV screens are in for a treat. Keep an eye out for “Battle Creek” and “Better Call Saul,” and get ready for some gripping and addictive storytelling.
