The USA network has opted not to pick up the previously announced Over/Under pilot, which starred Steven Pasquale, to series, according to Deadline.com.
In the pilot, Pasquale played Paul, a day trader with a massive gambling problem who is fired from his job six months after a bad trade costs his firm millions. Shut out of the job market, he and his wife move to Brooklyn where Paul finds an unlikely partner and starts a high-end bookie business. Pasquale filmed the pilot back in spring of 2011.
Pasquale is also at work on another pilot for NBC, the Jekyll and Hyde-inspired Do No Harm. The show follows Jeffrey Kohn (Pasquale), who struggles to keep his alter-ego Ian Price under wraps. The series will also star Broadway veterans Michael Esper and Phylicia Rashad.
USA has yet to make a decision regarding another untitled pilot starring Nathan Lane and Cheyenne Jackson.
