Dennis Quaid and Michael Chiklis in Talks For CBS Cowboy Drama

Dennis Quaid and Michael Chiklis may star in a new CBS TV show. THR reports that the actors are in talks to star in the 1960's-set drama based on the true story of Ralph Lamb, "a rodeo cowboy-turned-longtime sheriff in Las Vegas. Quaid would star, with Chiklis playing opposite him as a Chicago mobster who moves to Vegas." 

This would be Quaid's first time starring in a TV show. Chiklis is no stranger to TV, having starred in The Shield and ABC’s No Ordinary Family. The pilot is being written and exec produced by Greg Walker and Nicholas Pileggi along with James Mangold. Quaid's film roles have not been too great lately, so this might be the perfect fit for the actor. What is your favorite Dennis Quaid movie? I loved him in Innerspace and The Day After Tomorrow.
