Kitsis, Horowitz and Damon Lindelof developing secret pilot show
13 Oct 2010
Pilot ShowsIn what is sure to be one of the hottest properties of the rapidly approaching pilot season, former Lost executive producers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz are developing a fairy tale-themed drama series. Oh, and they’re getting a little help from—stop me if you’ve heard of this guy—Damon Freakin’ Lindelof!
Here’s what I know right this second…
Kitsis and Horowitz are getting ready to pitch the project to ABC Studios, where the duo currently have an overall deal. If it gets a green light, Lindelof—who also has a deal at ABC—will serve as a consultant.
So what is this thing? Good question. The only additional intel I’ve been able to glean from my sources is that it will have a female lead. (Paging Sarah Michelle Gellar… )
Based on the pedigree alone, I’m going to declare it the breakout hit of the 2011-12 TV season.

Considering that Fables was an ABC series, and it does have a female lead (Snow White) (as well as a male lead, Bigby Wolf), this was indeed the first thing I thought of. Seems like the most obvious answer.
ReplyDeleteexcited!
ReplyDeleteSounds like this could be the "Fables" series that was supposed to be in the works for quite some time.
ReplyDeleteLets hope it turns out as awesome as me! I'm willing to give it a try, the pilot that is.
ReplyDeleteyeah, and this time they can actually THINK THINGS THROUGH before putting something random into a show
ReplyDeleteI love this idea !
ReplyDeleteVery interesting.
ReplyDeletefairy tale-themed?
ReplyDeletefemale lead?
in the words of Lindelof: "I can't write women" xD
let's see how it turns out...
I wish Darlton would do another show together :(
ReplyDeleteyayyayayayayyayayayayyayaaaahahhhhhh!
ReplyDeleteAwful, sounds like a new Pushing Daisies lol
ReplyDeletethe new darlton?
ReplyDeleteCan't they use a different network? Like cable?
ReplyDeleteWould have been so much better if they used Frakking.
ReplyDeleteI chuckled.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know freakin' was his middle name.
ReplyDeleteThat would be awesome if they made Fables. Love that comic! Fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteMaybe he's better at consulting them.
ReplyDeletePresuming this is indeed Fables, I just want to say that I think Sarah Michelle Gellar would be a really strange pick to play Snow White. Or am I just hung up on the hair color ?
ReplyDeleteEvangeline Lily on the other hand... perfect ?
Fractured fairy tales with a sci-fi twist? I'd watch.
