TNT has ordered a new pilot Highland, which is inspired by comedian Margaret Cho’s struggles with substance abuse.
In addition to Highland, TNT is also in production on a pilot for Snowpiercer starring Daveed Diggs.
Cho began her career as a stand-up comedian before transitioning to television.
“Highland will chronicle what happens when two extended, dysfunctional Korean-American families who share the same patriarch must come together after tragedy strikes.
