It seems we can expect to see a line up of new fall TV shows that take inspiration from science fiction and fantasy. Will you be tuning in?



Remember the fairy tales your parents used to tell you before bedtime? Well, those weren't stories, they were warnings.

Detective Nick Burkhardt thought he was ready for the grim reality of working homicide in Portland, Oregon. That is, until he started to see things... things he couldn't quite explain. Like a gorgeous woman suddenly transforming into a hideous hag, or an average Joe turning into a vicious troll. Then, after a panicked visit from his only living relative, Nick discovers the truth about his visions: he's not like everyone else, he's a descendant of an elite group of hunters known as "Grimms" who are charged with stopping the proliferation of supernatural creatures in the world. And so begins his new life journey - albeit a reluctant one at first - as he solves crimes with his partner who knows something about Nick has radically changed but can't quite put his finger on it. Along the way, Nick finds himself unexpectedly getting help on some of the more difficult cases from Monroe, a guy who seems normal at first but is soon revealed to be what you might call a "big bad wolf." Literally!

While the Brothers Grimm wrote fairy tales that children have adored for generations, imagine if the villains were real, and Nick was the only one who could stop them.

From executive producers David Greenwalt (Angel, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and Jim Kouf (Angel, National Treasure) comes a new world of police work where all cases have a storybook connection... but not always happily ever after.

I think this could be good, (: very interesting.
But I'm not sure how far they could go with it ...

after all, there's only so many fairy tales.

@cherry, im sure they will start improvising and making episodes based on folk lore too.
Thanks @ ncreb. I honestly think the Wonder Woman show pilot had to be very crappy for them to outright reject it.

Looks interesting and a bit like Special 2. Unfortunately it will be lucky to last as long as that or Dresdon Files. Dresdon was better than Special unit 2 by far but only lasted 1 season.

Oh and I take it this site isnt called Comicbook Movie any more but Comic, Book and movie.com. Cool bring on the Carot top articles !!!

This site has become a joke...
I read your article Dmon, glad you tied it in with the comic cover unlike the copy and paste job above...
It is pathetic that some egos are too concerned about getting an article on the main rather than doing a bit of research and seeing if the news had already been covered in a previous article.
Some people need to stop trying to play journalist when they clearly have no chops.

sometimes articles get buried in the news section its hard to see something that doesn't have a link to a direct page such as Superman or The Avengers get over it
