ABC to man Front Line

By Joe Schlosser -- Broadcasting & Cable, 2/20/2002 11:35:00 AM

ABC has given the green-light for a new primetime reality/documentary series that will go behind the scenes of the U.S. military's ongoing war on terrorism.

The series, Profiles from the Front Line, is from Warner Bros. TV and producers Jerry Bruckheimer (Black Hawk Down) and Bertram van Munster (The Amazing Race).

ABC has given a 13-episode commitment to Front Line, which could be ready for primetime by this summer.

The Department of Defense and Pentagon have given their blessings to the project and will be involved from the outset, ABC executives said.

'I think this is an important show to make in order to salute our military and the men and women involved in the daily trials and tribulations on the front line against terrorism,' Bruckheimer said.
