Below are some of the latest and greatest pilots/pitches currently being taken into consideration at theVPN!

Avery Strange, is an hour long supernatural crime/mystery drama focused on a teenage paranormal investigator who, with the help of his estranged mother and a few classmates, try to solve the mystery behind his twin brother's sudden death, all the while dealing with the countless things that go bump in the night, as well as everyday problems.
"VPN executives are currently awaiting a second draft of the pilot before going into the voting stages. So far, the pilot has gotten positive reviews, and if picked up, would join a long list of supernatural dramas on the network. However, talk of a secondary category of "Crime/Mystery" may be opened to better define the shows fitting into both genres."
