Law - "Law and Order" has Nothing on this Proposed Show!

"Tonight in Los Angeles: Stories Ripped From the Federal Register! "

Imagine the pitch sessions: "SSA-CSI" -- Diligent clerks at the Social Security Administration team up with crime scene sleuths to crack cases. Or "HIPAA-SVU" -- Enforcers of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act vigilantly protect the identities of victims of heinous crimes.
You'll find this exciting pitch for a new show ("Hollywood is America's storyteller, and there are a lot of great stories about government workers that haven't really been told ...") about half-way through today's Reliable Source column in the Washington Post.
