Tron Legacy scribes Adam Horrowitz and Edward Kitsis ’ late television labor , an hour - long drama about modern - daylight faery story , has just been picked up by ABC . Fingers frustrate it ’s more like the comic book Fables and less like The 10th Kindgom .
Not that we do n’t have it away 10th Kingdom , we do — we just really want to see an updated , farinaceous fairy tale show that is n’t afraid to go a little dark .
Varietyis reporting that ABC has pick up Kitsis and Horrowitz ’s pilot , is titled “ Once Upon A Time , ” and here ’s the premise :
Pilot , from ABC Studios , is a mix of sci - fi and phantasy with a strong whodunit element . Premise is a modernistic - day take on queer tales , with a female protagonist who make out from a unique background . Show takes place in a small Maine town during the present clock time .
Lost exec manufacturer Damon Lindelof will consult , and like the outcast series , this drama will have a very orotund ensemble cast . We ’re very delirious for more hard - core phantasy on television , more fairies , less shirtless werewolves — no offense to MTV ’s Teen Wolf reboot .
