The creator behind “Good Girls Revolt” is shifting her gaze from the newsroom to crime scenes. Dana Calvo has signed on to serve as showrunner and exec producer on ABC detective drama Avalon, per Deadline.
Set in the city of Avalon on Catalina Island, the series will tell the story of L.A. Sheriff’s Department Detective Nicole “Nic” Searcy. “Catalina has a local population that serves more than 1 million tourists a year, and each day when the ferries arrive, hundreds of potential new stories enter the island. Detective Searcy is pulled into a career-defining mystery that will challenge everything she knows about herself and the island,” the source teases.
Besides “Good Girls Revolt,” a Prime Video about female researchers fighting for equality at the magazine they work for, the former journalist’s credits include “Narcos,” “Covert Affairs,” and “Greek.”
