During tonight's Emmy Awards, FX premiered the first teaser for a new dramatic series, "Untitled Jersey City Project," right now consisting of eight short-form episodes.

Directed by veteran "True Blood" and "Game of Thrones" director Daniel Minahan, the series, chronicling the development of a waterfront stadium, also doubles as advertising for a new 2012 Audi. In the first two episodes --now online -- the characters race through the Holland Tunnel and around Harsimus Cove.

The plot focuses on two young New Jersey architects hired to design Waterfront Field, a dream project for a cut-throat Jersey City real estate tycoon, Larry Tyerman, funded by a mysterious Taiwanese couple.

Rounding out the story are corrupt union bosses and foremen; Tyerman's driver, who doubles as an FBI informant; well-connected and fast-rising city Councilman Philip Haney; and a reporter (Tonya Glanz) for "The Ledger" playing all sides to get her story.

Draw parallels to prominent Jersey City locals and New Jersey newspapers at your own risk.

The series, described by FX as "a work in progress television drama," began filming in Jersey City at the end of July, then closing off Pearl Street in Brooklyn and Duncan Avenue in Jersey City, among other locations.

"Untitled Jersey City Project" is the second FX series to prominently feature Hudson County,preceded by "Lights Out,'' which was canceled earlier this year.
