For myself this is a great sign, and I feel that this might be a good sign for fans of "Doctor Who" star, David Tennant.
This Christmas, Fans of the Doctor are going to mourn the loss of Tennant's "Tenth Doctor" in "The End of Time" which is going to show Tennant handing the reins of the show over to Matt Smith, and new Series Producer, Steven Moffat.
Tennant, however appears to be moving on from the role that made him an international superstar, and it looks like he's striking while the iron is still hot. According to denofgeek.com Tennant has signed on to star in a new legal series on NBC called: "Rex Is Not Your Lawyer".
The premise of the show is a comedy/drama featuring a top Chicago litigator (Tennant) who suffers from panic attacks who coaches clients so that they can represent themselves in court. The concept appears to be one that is a little "Off the beaten track" so to speak, but one that Tennant can pull off without a hitch, as fans of who knows that the Tenth Doctor runs the gamut of emotions.
According to the report as well, it appears that the series has been in development for about a year or two, and it's been greenlit since the summer. NBC is hoping that the casting of Tennant will have the same effect for them that the casting of Hugh Laurie for the FOX medical drama, House had.
I know that myself, I am very excited for this, because I have become a huge fan of Tennant's work, and now that he's not going to be on Doctor Who, I want to see him become even more of a success, and I know a lot of others who are looking for the same. That, and I am interested to see what kind of accent Tennant uses for the part.

If you're looking for perhaps a series regular character, like a bartender buddy, or adopted brother who keeps bothering his Lawyer brother for money, I am available for work.
