The current political climate following the United States Presidential Elections has now shifted the interest of television viewers more towards patriotic and military-themed television shows. This seems to have been recognized by the various television networks, which is why there is now an increase in the orders for pilot episodes for these types of shows.

The CW is the latest network to jump into the trend with the company now ordering a pilot episode for a show called "Valor." The television series has been described to be a serialized military drama and conspiracy thriller that will mainly be set within a U.S. Army base. The show will focus specifically on a group of elite helicopter pilots as they perform their different international and domestic missions.

"Valor" will also apparently tell the pilot's stories through a series of flashbacks of a failed mission involving the group's first female pilot. According to Variety, several episodes will then follow the group uncovering military secrets that will lead them to a mission to rescue a group of MIA soldiers.

CW's upcoming "Valor" television series is written and produced by Kyle Jarrow. The musician and writer is joined by "Beauty and the Beast" executive producer Bill Harber, who is on board the project also as an executive producer.

Aside from the CW, other networks have also been reportedly green lighting their own pilot episodes for military-themed new shows, a per a report from Deadline. Fox already has given the go signal for a pilot episode for a show called "Behind Enemy Lines." The show has been revealed to be a military soap centered on patriotic themes.

NBC also has "For God and Country," a television series following different military heroes in their different missions outside the country. CBS is also planning to release a new drama series that focuses on what elite Navy Seal commandos have to go through during training and on actual missions. ABC on the other hand is taking a different approach with their new comedy called "Charlie Foxtrot," which is all about a military family in the United States.
