ABC has agreed to a pilot commitment based on the Vertigo Comics series “Fables”. The pilot will be scripted by Stu Zicherman and Raven Metzner.

The series “revolves around characters from fairy tales and folklore living in exile in modern-day New York.”

“Fables” could potentially be a nice replacement for fans of “Pushing Daisies” who will be missing the series after it’s officially cancelled in the very near future.
