M.J. has sold a pilot for a one-hour drama to Fox (to be directed by the director of “House”), based on The Reincarnationist! Let’s cross our fingers that the show will be chosen – then we will be able to get our reincarnationist fix on T.V. as well as online…

Here are a couple of links to news about the pilot:

From Fancast

“Richard Schiff is joining drama β€œThe Reincarnationist,” about investigators solving present mysteries caused by past-life traumas. Schiff will play a scientist who is a legend in the field of reincarnation.”

From Baltimore Sun

Reincarnation pilot filming here has good shot at Fox

While most pilots never see the light of a network’s prime-time schedule, there’s one that began filming today in Baltimore that looks like a strong candidate to make the Fox lineup next season.

The reason for the optimism: the pilot for the as-yet-untitled series about reincarnation is the work of a writer of quality drama, and the series seems to fit with what some network programmers see as the next big theme.

The pilot, which follows a team of investigators who use the concept of reincarnation to solve present-day problems in their clients’ lives, is being directed by Deran Sarafian (House) and features actors Kelli Giddish (All My Children), Nic Bishop (Home and Away) and Ravi Patel (Scrubs). But the name that matters most in this production is that of David Hudgins, who wrote the script and serves as executive producer. Hudgins most recently worked as writer and supervising producer of the NBC drama Friday Night Lights.” [the rest, here]

I will keep us all updated on news about the pilot. Stay tuned.
