With AMC’s 4 for 5 track record in launching original series in recent years, it makes sense that the network is now trying its hand at reality TV.
AMC announced today that it is developing two new reality shows, ‘Inside the DHS’ and ‘The Pitch,’ to launch in late 2011 and early 2012. Ahem — since this is AMC, they’re “docu-stories.” Okay then.
The first, ‘Inside the DHS,’ is a behind-the-scenes look at the Department of Homeland Security that’s scheduled to premiere later this year. The second, ‘The Pitch,’ follows real-life Mad Men working at an ad agency. That will debut early next year.
