Currently I am moving into a position where we have narrowed down the projects that I have genuine interest in, and hope to have reached a decision on something very soon!
If he chose this show, it must be good. The man has great taste
Now let's hope it will be picked up
Please, tell me it's Pittsburgh, I think I may have a stroke.

The very good news is that Curtis Hanson is involved (multiple Oscar winning writer and director - LA Confidential among others).

ETA: Link to Curtis Hansons' imdb entry:

I have more than proven that I know nothing about show business... but the fact that it's produced by CBS itself... is that a good sign??
Grace, logic would dictate that it's a good thing. But then logic hasn't done us much good so far, so who knows?
The other medical drama mentioned in Pam's post is a Bruckheimer production, and we know how CBS loves his procedurals, so I really don't know I'm afraid. Anyone else got any thoughts?

Oh... Bruckheimer does have an in, doesn't he? Darn!!! And yeah... we've caught tons of odd breaks... isn't it our turn in the karma line yet???
And... Hmmm... wonder what an organ transplant doctor's hair looks like... and do they have tattoos?
Someone had to ask...

Yay! That sounds good to me!
Now I'll have everything possible crossed and will be sending good thoughts! I really hope this pilot will be picked and will have successful multiple seasons! And that Alex will be in it for a long time, so that we can enjoy him on a weekly basis!
Go ALEX!

Judging from the other medical dramas, they seem to have a lot of time for steamy love affairs.
Hopefully tats will be revealed during love scenes
Oh Grace, I have no clue! I am getting giddy with all this excitement

Guys I am being so calm here, but I live an hour from Pittsburgh, my daughter is going to the University of Pittsburgh for nursing, my sister in-law and god children live 5 minutes from Pittsburgh, and Alex may have a lead in Three Rivers, sorry but
if this show happens and it is filmed in the Burgh, I have died and gone to haven.

I wonder what the good doctor's male/female patient ratio will be?
Dr. Yablonski, I think it's about time I switched organs, you know, just as a precaution. Will any female patients NOT fall in love with their doctor?

Hey nayp..do some scouting around and see where exactly this'll be shot..and I may show up at your front door..it's a bit of a drive for me from NY, but I've done it before for alot less motivation...

Neither am I.....however, I felt the same way about vampires, and look how mistaken I was!
If I can give vamps a chance, I can certainly give doctors a chance too.
Doctor Alex....hey, it's kind of a return of Medic Mick???
