May 1, 2019 Update

For today's update, I added 2 new upcoming shows:
  • Marvel's Ghost Rider (Hulu)
  • Marvel's Helstrom (Hulu)



  • Today I will include a list of 10 "in development" shows that I keep an eye out for. These will be the 10 oldest on my list, so highly unlikely any of them will ever happen. Though, I have seen shows sit in development hell for many years and then suddenly get produced with little or no fanfare. Anyway, I haven't heard any news about these shows in about 4 years ago, so don't get your hopes up.


  • The Disappearance (Starz) - Produced by Nick Antosca (Hannibal, Channel Zero, Believe, Teen Wolf). Boy disappears for 7 years, somehow tied to string of local murders. May or may not be supernatural, maybe just horror or thriller.

  • Untitled Hispanic Supernatural Anthology (NBC)- Produced by Eva Longoria. Set in the Southwest. Each season would be a new storyline (similar to American Horror Story, Channel Zero, The Terror).

  • Spin (Syfy) - Miniseries based on Robert Charles Wilson's Hugo winning novel. "About a young scientist trying to save humanity from the impending apocalypse of a mysterious, impenetrable cloud that has enveloped the entire Earth, blacking out the stars."

  • People Under the Stairs (Syfy) - Based on Wes Craven's 1991 movie. A cross between Downton Abby & Amityville Horror.

  • We are All Completely Fine (Syfy) - Wes Craven involved. Based on book by Daryl Gregory. "A mysterious psychologist draws out twisted evils from her patients’ pasts."

  • Disciples (Syfy) - Wes Craven involved. Based on a graphic novel by Steve Niles. "The futuristic drama explores what might happen if the world’s wealthiest people begin to colonize the moons of our solar system."

  • Tales From the Darkside - Based on the 1980's tv series. Pilot was made, CW passed. Several other channels were interested. We have Twilight Zone, 10 After Midnight, Creepshow, Amazing Stories, Black Mirror, Misfits & Monsters, Electric Dreams, so it wouldn't surprise me if this got picked up again in the next couple years.

  • Gateway (Syfy) - Based on Frederik Pohl's Hugo & Nubula winning novel. "Humanity discovers an asteroid teeming with the long abandoned spaceships of an advanced alien race - the Heechee - setting in motion a gold rush for alien artifacts and technology."

  • Moreau (CBS) - Based on H.G. Wells' The Island of Dr. Moreau.


  • These Final Hours (Fox) - Based on the 2013 pre-apocalyptic movie. "Set after a world-ending meteor strike, follows three siblings in the San Francisco Bay Area as they race to get to their estranged father’s bomb shelter that can withstand the end of days."

    That's it for round 1 from the deepest pits of development hell.
