TNT's head of programming Michael Wright said: "When we saw the pilot for Perception, it confirmed what we thought from the first pitch - it's a perfect fit for TNT's original series lineup. 

"With its blend of intensity, emotion, humour, smart storytelling, sharp direction and a buzz-worthy performance from Eric McCormack, Perception is a hugely entertaining show we believe TNT viewers will love." 

TNT has ordered ten episodes of Perception.  The show is expected to premiere in 2012.
