(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 06, 2009 ) Henderson, NV -- In Hollywood most seasoned actors know that pilots don't always lead to a series, and those that do are often cancelled after a few episodes. So there's no guarantee the public will ever see any of these shows, but aspiring young actors will find this list intriguing and somewhat educational.

Limelight, ABC
Storyline: "This pilot revolves around talented students and faculty at an innovative performing-arts school in New York, where students explore the combustible blend of contemporary music and dance while balancing their dreams, hopes and struggles."
ACT and its staff have their fingers crossed that this will be picked-up by the networks and fill its cast with one or two of the talented young people trained by ACT instructors.

Legally Mad, NBC
Storyline: "Legal drama centering on a high-end Chicago law firm and the legal and social drama that surrounds the founding partners and their associates."
Why is this one interesting to ACT? Kenny Ortega, of High School Musical and Newsies fame, is directing the pilot.

The Middle, ABC
Storyline: "This pilot explores the life of an extended lower middle-class family in the Midwest through the eyes of the mother."
Why does ACT find this one intriguing? It is just one of the many shows about the "middle class" that are on the list.

Boldly Going Nowhere, Fox
Storyline: "This pilot centeris on the crew of a spaceship led by a rogue captain. The stories explore what happens between the adventures and how the crew members take care of daily routine things on the spaceship."
Why does ACT find this one worth talking about? This pilot is from the people behind "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia," so there is experience on their side and comedy. Since it is slanted for Fox it may be more family friendly and we're hoping they cast a kid or two and maybe a couple of teens.

The list is filled with legal and medical shows -- one is all about nurses. Interestingly ACT found several Washington D.C. based programs, which could call for some talented teen actors.
