Jon Favreau (who will also direct the pilot) has co-written a drama, Ex-Comm, which apparently crosses X-Files and The West Wing, along with the writers behind Star Trek (Kurtzman, Orci), Seth Green (yes, THAT Seth Green, from Robot Chicken, Family Guy, Austin Powers, Buffy, etc.) and Michael Dougherty (X2: X-Men United, Superman Returns). Wow, what a team! ABC is ordering a pilot and it may go to series.
