Katherine Heigl manages to keep finding work. It's incredible! From Access Hollywood:
Katherine Heigl could be heading back to primetime in a new high-stakes drama series for NBC. On Sunday, the network announced a pilot order for "State of Affairs," starring the "Grey's Anatomy" alumna. The series would be executive produced by Joe Carnahan ("The Blacklist") as well as Katherine and her mom, Nancy Heigl.

"We got them on the phone and they had this love fest and signed off," NBC Entertainment President Jennifer Salke told AccessHollywood.com of pairing up the actress with Carnahan, following the Executive Session panel at the Television Critics Association Winter Tour on Sunday. "So now we have them together and I think he is a great combination with her."

"[Katherine's] been nothing but lovely, I have to tell you," Salke said. "She and her mother are both very involved, obviously, and she's been on board with us creatively with where we want to take the show from the very beginning."
I thought she didn't like TV? Eating humble pie now?
