Plotkin replaces Tony Optican, who left the network in May to steer FremantleMedia North America’s scripted programming efforts.
Among the series Plotkin has developed are CBS’ Without a Trace and Cold Case, FX’ Nip/Tuck and the CW’s Smallville. Most recently, Plotkin served as an executive producer for Chinese broadcaster CCTV.
