Steve Schult noticed this notice on K Street tonight about a pilot ABC plans to film in South Boston about Boston's first crop of women cops in the 1970s. Deadline Hollywood describes the premise:

Dubbed “The Broad Squad” by the local press, they arrived at a tumultuous time in Boston’s history, marked by corruption within the police force and a heightened organized crime presence in the city. Navigating rival neighborhoods as well as the conflicting attitudes toward them from everyone, they find themselves tested both on and off duty.

Deadline Hollywood adds the co-producer/writer is a graduate of "Boston-based Harvard University."

The site updates us about the pilot's male lead:

Spector plays Tommy Anthony, a scruffy, sideburned, loose cannon of a cop who sidles up to Lisa at a bar, unprepared for her outpouring of vitriol.
