More JJ Abrams coming your way!
ABC has greenlit Boundaries, a one-hour comedy pilot from director/producer J.J. Abrams, to be written by Grey’s Anatomy writer-producer Jill Soloway, who will also produce.
The show is about a failing cable access psychologist who rediscovers her true purpose when she is forced to take a job as a mobile notary.
It is the first major broadcast project to stem from Abrams’ six-year deal, signed in 2006, between his Bad Robot and Warner Bros. TV. A previous pilot, medical drama The Anatomy of Hope, based on Jerome Groopman’s book, went to HBO earlier this year.
Abrams has worked extensively with ABC as executive producer of the series Lost, Alias, What About Brian, and Six Degrees. He is currently developing a new Star Trek movie for Paramount Pictures.
Soloway, a former writer-producer for Six Feet Under, is working on ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy as a consulting producer. During her three-year stint on Six Feet, she earned three best drama series Emmy nominations as part of the show’s producing team.

Ohhh….my….gosh.
I’ve worked as a mobile notary since 2001. I can’t believe this is happening! I have so many crazy stories from being a mobile notary its not even funny. From burning white trash trailers to people on their death bed…it’s a crazy job.
Does anyone know when this will premiere?

Can’t find much on this show yet.
Does anyone have anymore info?
I have mixed feelings on this. I hope it gives a proper portrayal of a mobile notary to give the public an awareness of the role. On the other hand it could do two things if portrayed incorrectly; demean or misrepresent the duties of the notary.
I am also a Mobile Notary Signing Agent and run a nationwide association to inform and educate notaries. Hopefully the exposure will be good for the notary. I wonder where they got their knowledge what a mobile notary does?
I guess we will have to wait and see.
