He is.

I'm intrigued, sounds interesting. Hope it fares better than other recently fallen sci-fi(ish) shows like Jericho, Journeyman, My Worst Enemy, Life On Mars, Bionic Woman, and Terminator: the Sarah Conner Chronicles.

Not to mention the great modern fairytale/fantasy show Pushing Daisies.

Well ABC is giving it a good timeslot, so i'll keep my fingers crossed.

Interesting in 24 that Branon Braga (one of the terrible twosome accused of destroying Trek) is working alongside the very guy, Manny Coto, who almost saved Enterprise.

What's so odd about it, they worked alongside each other on Enterprise, I think i read somewhere that Coto brought Braga on board. Anyway, Braga will be ditching 24 for Flash Forward.
