The series centers on an across-the-pond romance between a New York teacher (Cuthbert) and a London stockbroker (Kemp) where, “Edie meets Michael on a trip to London. When her bag gets stolen and she finds herself in a bar - broke and without a phone - she asks Michael for help. What starts up as a guarded but flirty exchange ends up as a full-on New York-London relationship, two people not looking for love but falling into it nonetheless.” Scorsone will play Edie’s roommate, a promiscuous rocker and Whitworth will play Edie’s ex-boyfriend.

Facts & Trivia
- An adaptation of the British series NY-LON (2004) with Rashida Jones and Stephen Moyer.

- Elisha’s character was described in the casting breakdown as being, “… an incredibly appealing, feisty, cool downtown woman who’s adopted NY as her home. She teaches adults literacy, and she’s totally committed to her students, although she doesn’t make much money doing this. She believes in doing what she can to help the world. To make ends meet she also works at a Bleeker Bob’s-type used record store for serious music-heads; she loves music. She comes from money but has rejected it, living independently in NYC. Her mother died of cancer when she was young. She’s emotional, feisty, strongminded and loyal, someone who women totally identify with and men will follow anywhere.”

- Filming for the CBS’ one-hour pilot was completed; however, it was confirmed in May 2008 that it wasn’t being picked up (produced by ABC TV Studios/Beacon.) It is extremely unlikely that the series will get picked up later on.
