Comcast's Versus network has bought
South Sydney Story, a docuseries detailing Russell Crowe's role as owner of an Aussie pro rugby team, says
Variety. The series will air Wednesday nights over five weeks in October and November.... CBS has ordered eight episodes of
Jingles, a reality competition from (guess who) Mark Burnett, in which contestants conjure up catchy tunes touting real-life products.... NBC has granted a 13-episode order to
Robinson Crusoe, a drama series based on the Daniel Defoe novel and to premiere as early as fall 2008.
