The project, entitled Austin
Golden Hour, is being written by
Lance Gentile (Third Watch, ER) and Mal Young (Doctor Who). It follows a team of young emergency room
surgeons and EMTs during the critical and suspenseful 60 minutes following a
trauma. The show will also focus on the private lives, relationships, and
rivalries of those men and women.
