New show starring Terry O'Quinn & Michael Emerson. Confirmed.

JJ Abrams pitching show with 'Lost' stars

Looks like Michael Emerson and Terry O'Quinn -- otherwise known as Benjamin Linus and John Locke/Smokey from the ABC hit -- are coming back to the small screen.

JJ Abrams, Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec ("Alias," "Mission: Impossible 4") -- who work together under production company Bad Robot -- have been pitching a comedic drama to networks in which Emerson and O'Quinn play former black-ops agents, according to New York Magazine's Vulture.

Not that this should come as a complete surprise. In February, Emerson and O'Quinn told TV Guide they wanted to work together. Emerson also spoke about a potential collaboration while promoting "Lost's" DVD collection release. But this is the first time the project looks to have legs.

While there aren't many details, Vulture says the working title is "Odd Jobs," and it will have elements of comedy. Emerson mentioned earlier this year that he'd want to star as a suburban hit man, a la "Mr. and Mrs. Smith."

Warner Bros., the studio where Bad Robot is based, had no comment when asked by Vulture.

A show I can watch with both Terry O'Quinn and Michael Emerson in that isn't interrupted by an insipid love triangle with Evangeline Lily and Matthew Fox. Sounds great.

Remember that new show we mentioned the other day? Starring Lost's John Locke and Ben Linus, from executive producer J.J. Abrams? It's officially happening, and soon. Advantage Abrams!

After down-to-the-wire negotiations with Lost network ABC, NBC has picked up Odd Jobs, the new hour-long drama from Abrams starring Terry O'Quinn and Michael Emerson, reports Deadline.com. The show has a put-pilot commitment from the network, which means that NBC will air the pilot and most likely pick it up for series.

Locke 'N Linus - Next fall on NBC?
Little is known about the new show, other than it will center on O'Quinn and Emerson as former Special Ops agents. Abrams' former Alias writers, Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec, will write the project and executive produce. The duo is also working on the script for Abrams' Mission: Impossible IV.

Bad Robot figurehead Bryan Burk will also executive produce the series, alongside Abrams, Appelbaum and Nemec (which would be a great name for a law firm.) NBC now has two projects with Team Abrams, the first being this fall's spy show Undercovers.

This series joins Bad Robot's very busy TV slate, which includes FOX's secret Alcatraz series and a show at CBS from The Dark Knight co-writer Jonathan Nolan, titled Person of Interest.
