The CW announced on Tuesday that it will renew “Burden of Truth” and “The Outpost” for their second seasons in summer 2019.

“Bulletproof” follows two undercover cops, Bishop and Pike as they chase down hardened criminals in London’s East End. But the series is more than high-octane action and thrilling cases.

Fox Reality Channel has ordered a new series that puts an attention-getting gender twist on the trophy-spouse reality genre.

The network has ordered nine hours of "Househusbands of Hollywood," which follows a collection of stay-at-home spouses of successful L.A. women.

The cast includes Tempestt Bledsoe ("The Cosby Show") and husband Darryl M. Bell ("A Different World"), Jillian Reynolds (formerly Barberie, from "Good Day La") and her husband Grant and former Los Angeles Dodger Billy Ashley, among others.

The project produced by Marilyn Wilson Prods. represents a different kind of reality show for the cable channel, which is dominated by off-network acquisitions, original competition series and the occasional docudrama.

"Househusbands," set to bow in August, falls into an ensemble soap category that's provided ample fruit for such high-profile cable players as Bravo, VH1 and E!

"We believe 'Househusbands' could be a breakthrough for us," said Bob Boden, Fox Reality senior vp programming.

Fox Reality Channel has greenlighted its competition series "Solitary" for a third season.

In addition, the network has named ShineReveille International as its distribution partner to license the show's format and finished episodes worldwide.

"Solitary 3.0" is in preproduction. Nine new participants will be subjected to physical and psychological tests requiring extreme patience and endurance, with a new twist for the third season that's being kept under wraps. One winner will take home a cash prize of $50,000.

"Solitary 3.0," which Fox Reality said is its most successful original series, is executive produced by co-creators Andrew Golder and Lincoln Hiatt.

FremantleMedia North America, the U.S.-based division of British media giant FremantleMedia, has signed a first-look agreement with executive producer Lincoln Hiatt, executive producer of Fox's reality show Unan1mous. Hiatt will work with FMNA chief creative officer Eugene Young to develop and produce new primetime reality series. Hiatt has more than 15 years' experience as a producer, writer, director and videographer in film, television and documentary. Hiatt also is executive producer of Fox Reality Channel's Solitary and has served as senior producer of ABC's Alternative Development Lab. "Lincoln has shown tremendous imagination throughout his production career," FMNA CEO Cecile Frot-Coutaz said.
