ABC is developing a U.S. version of Canadian hit "Being Erica," which formerly aired on Alphabet sister cabler SoapNet.
Maggie Friedman ("Eastwick") will write the U.S. version and exec produce. David Fortier and Ivan Schneeberg, who head up Toronto-based Temple Street Prods., which produces the original series, will also exec produce.
"Being Erica" centers on a woman who travels back in time to relive a regret from the past and manages to correct those wrongs in the present. Show, created by Jana Sinyor, debuted on CBC in 2009.
"Being Erica's" first two seasons aired on SoapNet, and a third season, which bowed this fall in Canada, is set to run on the channel starting Jan. 26, 2011. (Any future Canadian seasons may have to find a new home, however, as SoapNet will be replaced at the end of 2011 by Disney Junior.)
