Australian paranormal comedy series Strange Calls is being developed for American audiences for a third time. THR reports that NBC has given a pilot order to a remake of the show produced by Aaron Kaplan and written by Cougar Town’s Blake McCormick. The single-cam series follows “an affable but down-on-his-luck young police officer who is transferred to a rural town where — with the help of a peculiar, elderly night watchman — he starts to realize the town has a bizarre supernatural underbelly.” ABC developed the show as a potential series twice in 2012 and 2014, but it ultimately did not move forward at the network.
