A fantasy drama based on comic book Fables is being developed into a TV series by ABC.

Stu Zicherman and Raven Metzner, who created Six Degrees, are to pen a script for a pilot of the hour-long drama, says The Hollywood Reporter.

The televised version will revolve around characters from fairy tales and legend living in exile in modern New York.

Zicherman and Metzner said central characters in the Bill Willingham comic, such as Big Bad Wolf and Snow White, will have similar roles on the show.

Metzner said they are "just like real people in the real world who live and breathe and look just like you and me".

Ray Romano will be making a return to television after his pilot Men Of A Certain Age was greenlit for production.

TNT has placed a ten-episode order for the drama series, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Men Of A Certain Age follows three college friends in their 40s dealing with their midlife issues. Romano will star as Joe, a divorced father-of-two, opposite Scott Bakula and Andre Braugher.

The show, which marks Romano's first TV role since Everybody Loves Raymond ended in 2005, was co-created by the actor and former Raymond writer/producer Mike Royce.

"The show isn't ever going to be weighty tome," said Royce. "We're really just trying to write out of our own experience and make the show relatable."

Romano and Royce will produce the show alongside Raymond's Rory Rosegarten and Cary Hoffman.

The series has been slated for a January 2010 premiere but no production dates have been announced yet.

Did Ex-Dawson's Creek Show Runner Just Trash Katie Holmes?

No, it isn't 1998. It's just that former Dawson's Creek show runner Tom Kapinos spoke at a Los Angeles Times Envelope Screening Series panel about his current show, Californication, last night, and well, he went off on his former starlets.

In talking about the genesis of Californication, Tom explained: "The idea came out of my own misery of working on Dawson's Creek. I came out here to write screenplays, and I ended up on Dawson's Creek, which was very lucrative and fun, but it was not what I wanted to do."

Tom then went on to seemingly trash Dawson's stars Katie Holmes, James Van Der Beek, Joshua Jackson and Michelle Williams. Check this craziness out...

"The experience was miserable," he continued about Dawson's. "But it was a four-year boot camp. It was like going to TV grad school and learning how to run a television show. Anybody on that show who could make a decision was allowed to run it at some point. I inherited the very awkward college years, and I almost ran the show into the ground. But I learned everything that I needed to know about how to run a show."

When the panel moderator asked, "What was it specifically that made it such a challenge?" Tom dropped this bomb: "It was the four monstrous actors at the core of it."

The audience erupted in laughter as Tom continued, saying: "They were very young, and they got very famous, and they made life miserable for any writer or producer on the show."


Are you surprised at Tom's comments about Dawson's Creek? Fire away below.

Swayze’s TV show 'The Beast' cancelled

Patrick Swayze’s TV show The Beast has been cancelled, it has been reported.

A source involved with the production of the A&E crime drama claims that a second season will not transpire, People reports.

The Ghost star filmed 13 episodes of the series last summer while he underwent treatment for pancreatic cancer, and had been unable to promote the show when he dealt with a bout of pneumonia in January.

"He had challenges while he was working because he was still doing chemo and it wasn't always easy but in spite of all of that, he'd suit up and show up," his wife Lisa Niemi said. "He was always there."

The actor, 56, had also received praise for his professionalism from co-stars.

A rep for A&E said "no decision has been made" regarding the future of the show. Swayze’s rep had no comment. The last episode of The Beast aired on April 23.
