May 17, 2019 Update

Today's updates:
  • The Rain season 2 now bingeable.
  • See You Tomorrow removed from list. Didn't realize it was a movie, not a series, oops.
  • Wizard and Glass, the Dark Tower series, I am pushing to a 2020 estimate.

    Today's development hell list are more shows from about 2 years ago.
  • Ascendant (Starz) - Based on Divergent movie series.
  • The Munsters (NBC) - Reboot of the of the 60s show.
  • Mosaic (NBC) - "Set in the near-future metropolis and follows the interconnected lives of a diverse set of characters struggling to navigate their relationships in the face of emerging technologies."
  • The Fifth Season (TNT) - Based on N.K. Jemisin’s Hugo-winning sci-fi fantasy novel. "An epic drama set in a world where civilization-destroying earthquakes occur with deadly regularity. A small minority of inhabitants has the ability to quiet these earthquakes, but they can also cause them. The series follows three women, each of whom possesses these special, earth-controlling abilities."
  • The Jetsons (ABC) - Live-action reboot of the 60s cartoon.
  • Galaxy Quest (Amazon) - Based on the 90s movie.
  • The Valiant (CW) - "A Celtic princess on the run from an arranged marriage and a sheltered life who is captured and forced into slavery under Julius Caesar. She ends up training among the first wave of female Gladiators to compete in the Colosseum for fame, fortune and, ultimately, her freedom."
  • Untitled Female Marvel project (ABC) - "It's Jessica Jones-esque." I think this might have fallen apart after the complete failure of Inhumans on ABC.
  • Spirited (ABC) - "A fake psychic who realizes she can really communicate with the dead. She decides to put her con-woman past behind her and actually start helping people."
  • Who Fears Death (HBO) - From George R.R. Martin. "Coming of age tale of Onyesowu in post-apocalyptic North Africa where her story makes her an outcast. She must go on a journey from self-reproach to love, but to do so she’ll have to overcome untold obstacles—defeating her hated sorcerer father and becoming the instrument of prophetic deliverance for a land of oppressed people, all the while fighting to master the terrifying powers growing inside her."
