Bitsie Tulloch is most likely a name most of you haven't heard of, but those of you who have heard of most likely know her as 'Lonelygirl15'. Deadline is reporting that Bitsie (Real name Elizabeth) has been cast along side Russell Hornsby (Meet the Parents) to star in NBC's newest pilot project 'Grimm'

The pilot is going to be a dark and fantasy styled cop drama taking place in a world where characters inspired by the Grimm Brothers' fairy tales actually exist. It will center on a detective, Nick Burckhardt who is being played by David Giuntoli who starts to see humans as different beasts and monsters and discovers that he must protect the human race from these monsters.


Earlier this week it was reported that Silas Weir Mitchell (Prison Break, Halloween II) is also set to play a character named Eddie Monroe who is a reformed big bad wolf who starts helping Nick with his cases.

I'm not 100% sold on this idea just yet, I think it would work amazing as a comic-book, or a series of novels, or hell maybe, MAYBE it could work as a movie but I just don't see it playing out too well as a TV show, but at least with it being on NBC it might have a fighting chance.

I agree, Intruder. And I'm sure FABLES is a trillion times better than what this show will be.

I'm tired of law and order dramas even if they have an interesting premise. :(

David Greenwalt(Buffy and Angel) and Jim Kouf(Angel) will be the executive producers and writers, so I'm thinking this show will be similar to Buffy and Angel.I'm very interested in it.

I'm also looking forward to Ronald D. Moore's 17th Precinct.That's another NBC show set in a world where magic and the supernatural are more prominent than science.They've already cast Eamonn Walker, Stockard Channing and Jamie Bamber.I'm intrigued by it.

Bitsie Tulloch was not lonelygirl15, she was a character on there named Alex. lonelygirl15's character's name was Bree, played by Jessica Rose.

In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police, who investigate crime; and the district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders. These are their fairy tales.

This could be a fun idea in the right hands. I would definitely give something like this a chance. Just don't put it on Mondays during football season!

Umm... This sounds like it could be cool, but that big bad wolf thing sounds like Bill Willingham should call his lawyer. Now, Fables would make a damn good TV series, but not on NBC.

Hey, wait a minute. Didn't NBC order a script for a Fables pilot a couple years ago? I smell shenanigans.
