NBCU Finally Pours Water on USA Network -- Series Reboot of John Grisham's 'The Rainmaker' Is Linear Network's First Unshared Scripted Original Since 2000

The Rainmaker.

NBCUniversal has ordered a series reboot of 1995 John Grisham bestseller The Rainmaker from Lionsgate Television and Blumhouse Television. 

And here's the really interesting part: This rather high-profile series adaptation is being targeted, at least for now, exclusively for the linear USA Network, which hasn't had a original scripted series order sent its way since 2020.
