The Jensen Project is a made-for-TV movie which could act as the pilot for a new series. It’s a science-based drama starring Kellie Martin, LeVar Burton, and Patricia Richardson.
The Jensen Project tells the story of a secret organization by the same name. Set in 1988, 12 geniuses reside in the Alleghany Mountains researching the world’s most difficult problems and inventing solutions for them.
Unfortunately, a few of the members steal all the ideas and head to sell them and take all the credit. The rest of the members have to go after them in order to prevent the inventions falling into the wrong hands.
The TV movie is based on a story by Jeff Davenport. It sounds intriguing but it could end up being dire, as most TV movies do.
