The networks doled out orders like they were going out of style today, with a slew of high-profile projects including "Beverly Hills Cop" and a new Greg Kinnear dramedy series getting the greenlight. Get a full accounting below.

"Shield" creator Shawn Ryan is on board to write as well as executive-produce alongside original star Eddie Murphy, who will reprise his role in the pilot alongside Brandon T. Jackson ("Percy Jackson," "Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son"). The plot will center on Aaron Foley (Jackson) - police officer son of Murphy's Axel Foley - who is constantly attempting to escape the shadow of his famous father as he works the Beverly Hills crime beat. If the pilot goes to series, Murphy will continue to appear in a recurring capacity.

- "Backstrom": Crime drama from "Bones" creator Hart Hanson based on a book series by Swedish novelist Leif G.W. Persson about an overweight, self-destructive detective.

FOX

The pilot will be executive-produced by "Cougar Town" co-creator Bill Lawrence.
