New Series Synopsis
Night Moves
Dramedy from Jeff Davis co-producer of "Rock of Ages" starring Will Forte "SNL, MacGruber, The Watch" and Gil Bellows "Vegas, Shawshank Redemption, House at the End of the Street" as rival but kindred spirit rock bar owners who must deal with the changes to the music industry in the mid 80's and the impact it has on their business and their future, as well as the turmoil in their own hectic lives and families.
The owners of two adjacent rock bars "Diamonds" and "Rust" compete for patrons, and struggle to survive in the late 80's as music shifts from hard rock to rap and pop. As much as they despise each other they find common ground as well, but ultimately know that only one of their bars can survive.

Julius (Andre Braugher) is a black man from the streets of Baltimore who has grown up into a successful businessman. He runs a large chain of convienience stores "Stoops" in poor black neighborhoods, with his managers and employees owning a chunk. Despite all the good he does for the 'hoods he still has his many detractors who only see him getting rich, and they say its at the expense of the very people he is helping. His most vocal detractor is Mikey (Mos Def), one of his best friends growing up who despite not having any success with his methods is an activist who believes you must change the whole system, not one life at a time. Despite their differences Julius and Mikey remain good friends. The show centers around the dichotomy that is the life of Julius including his business, his wealth, his model white wife (Aubrey O'Day), and his two spoiled children. Viewers will be asked to take a stand; for Julius or against Julius, there will be no sitting on the fence

The Next Level
12 athletic dreamers, 6 men, 6 women, train and compete both physically and mentally for a chance to win a sponsorship from Reebok that will allow them to train for a year and pursue glory in their chosen sport. Often it's economic circumstances, access to training and competition centers, injuries, and just plain bad luck that separates the ones who become elite from those that look back at what may have been.
World renown trainers Shaun Thompson "Shaun T" and Jennifer Nicole Lee "JNL" will be joined by other professionals including sport psychologists in determining which of the 12 deserve the chance to pursue their dreams.

Other Notes
The network has no other mid-season show plans at the moment. In the event that more programming hours need to be filled we will be relying on movies (including original productions), encore programming, and possibly special sports events in conjunction with eVolution and Balls cable networks.
Wolf Point returns for its 5th season and a decision will be made by mid-season on whether this will be its final season or not.
Channel 97 will also return for its 5th season, this will be its final season on the network, and the producers are looking for a syndication deal to continue the show beyond 2014.
