Production

NBC ordered the pilot to series on May 4, 2017 together with Rise , making both series the first regular series orders for the 2017–18 United States network television schedule. [10] In May 2017 NBC announced that Matt Corman and Chris Ord would be the series' showrunners. [11]

In a letter published by the 'Renew The Brave' campaign, guest star Naren Weiss wrote about the series as well as his reasoning for taking on one of the series' antagonist roles, stressing the importance of Hadi Tabbal's portrayal and character (Amir Al-Raisani) in terms of the political and entertainment landscapes of the time. [12] Despite this and several other fan campaigns, the series was not renewed for a second season.
