LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - ABC has picked up a crime drama pilot set in Detroit.

Titled "187 Detroit," the pilot marks ABC's first drama pickup that will be in the running for next season. "Detroit" is shot in the style of a fictional documentary crew following a top homicide division and has a realistic yet sometimes humorous tone.

ABC has been one of the more aggressive networks in getting development ready for next season, having ordered comedies "Women Are Crazy" and "Awkward Situations for Men."
