AMC expands its programming slate by giving a nod to two new unscripted reality projects:

• Secret Stash (wt) is a one-hour series from Kevin Smith, Charlie Corwin’s Original Media and Elyse Seiden set inside the world of a local comic book store, Jay and Silent Bob’s Secret Stash.  The series will have six episodes and a first quarter 2012 debut is planned. 
• JJK Security (wt) is a workplace dramedy from Ken Druckerman, Banks Tarver and Left/Right.  The plot centers on a group of quirky employees who work at a small family-owned private security company in rural Georgia.  Season one will have eight half-hour episodes and a third quarter 2012 premiere is scheduled.  

Darlene Hunt, writer/creator on Showtime’s The Big C, sold a comedy script to NBC based on the book Bad Dog by Martin Kihn.  Bad Dog is about Marty, a functioning alcoholic and TV writer-turned-management consultant whose marriage depends on his ability to control his dog Hola.  Neal Moritz and Vivian Cannon will produce the project from Sony Pictures Television.

FX’s American Horror Story cast Teddy Sears in a recurring role as Pat, Chad’s (Zachary Quinto) partner and co-owner of the haunted home that is the centerpiece of the plot from Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk.

Just a day after HBO approved the boxing drama pilot Da Brick from Spike Lee and John Ridley, the premium network cast John Boyega to play the lead, Donnie; Milauna Jemai to play Lynette, Donnie’s mother; Julito McCullum to play Kevin, Donnie’s best friend; and Kamahl Naiqui Palmer as Malik, the moral center of Donnie’s tight group of friends. 

Daytime syndicated series The Doctors welcomes psychologist and author Dr. Wendy Walsh as a new co-host beginning September 12 when the fourth season premieres.  The Doctors is produced by Stage 29 Productions and distributed by CBS Television Distribution.
