CBS made the decision to order the drama television pilots last year. In hopes of the project receiving a full series order, CBS and CBS Studios secured Larry Teng as the director and executive producer for the first episode, thus paving the way for an official greenlight. Despite the setback of attaching a supervising writer just before the Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike began, the project is still in development and is expected to move forward by establishing a writers' room in the near future. Described as a medical show with a huge emphasis on investigation, Watson presents a contemporary rendition of one of history's most brilliant detectives, who shifts his focus from solving crimes to unraveling medical mysteries.
