Created by Christian McLaughlin and Valerie Ahern, San Rafael will follow the lives, loves and fights of a group of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered residents sharing an apartment complex. Maverick TV's Michael Rosenberg will executive produce the new series with the company's Guy Oseary. Maverick TV, a division of Madonna and Oseary's Maverick Films, is also developing One Giant Leap: Neil Armstrong's Stellar American Journey, a mini for Fox TV Studios.
