Nancy Grace is being groomed to be the next superstar in syndication.

Broadcasting & Cable reports that CBS Television Distribution (CTD) hopes that CNN's Nancy Grace is the next big thing in syndication.

CBS reportedly has an exclusive development deal with Grace to develop a 30-minute series that will be a "new take on the court show."

B&C reports the working title is "Swift Justice With Nancy Grace," and it is aiming for the air in fall 2010.

Grace reportedly will also keep her HLN show.

“We looked at our research about her, and it didn't take too long to notice that she's a superstar on HLN,” says John Nogawski, CTD's president to B&C. “She's the most female-skewing star that they have on their air, and she's number-one in every adult and female demo. She's a huge brand....The key to any great show is the personality, Nancy is a gigantic television personality, and people already trust her opinion.”
