Written and executive produced by Turk, Eagle Eye revolves around an elite, hand-picked team of airmen, military detectives, and civilian agents within the Office of Special Investigations who utilize cutting-edge technology, sophisticated weapons, and their own investigative prowess to tackle the biggest criminal and counter-terrorism cases for the Air Force, Space Force, and U.S. Cyber Command.

Teng brought Eagle Eye to the studio, and Turk came aboard to serve as writer under his overall deal there.

Written and executive produced by Patrick, in Mastermind, a highly empathetic detective with the mysterious ability to scan memories through tough partners with a hard-edges, emotionless criminal profiler in a specialized government task force to solve the country’s most troubling cases.

Studio Dragon brought the project to PatMa and then both took it to CBS Studios.

In addition to Patrick and Teng, Tassler, DiNovi, Joan Boorstein and Alison Choi executive produce for PatMa, along with Miky Lee, Young-kyu Kim and Hyun Park for Studio Dragon.
