    Today's portion of the development hell list. The last news I heard about any of these was 3+ years ago:
  • Bob the Valkyrie (CW) - "Every generation faces a rising tide of evil, adversary of the legendary Valkyries — three women chosen by fate to defend humanity against this evil. This generation is no different — only this time, fate accidentally chooses a male when selecting its Valkyries. Now Bob, a chauvinistic 'dude-bro', must learn to face darkness and fight evil…all while getting in touch with his feminine side."
  • Cry (CW) - "A doctor makes the astonishing medical breakthrough to bring cryogenically preserved people back to life, starting with the unfreezing of his own father — but he never expects that restoring life will have both glorious and devastating consequences."
  • Transylvania (CW) - "Set in 1880, a headstrong young woman in search of her missing father ventures from NYC to Transylvania where she teams up with a wrongfully disgraced Scotland Yard Detective, and together they witness the births of the most famous monsters and villains in history."
  • Harrow County (Syfy) - Adaptation of the Dark Horse comic written by Cullen Bunn. "Emmy has always known that the deep, dark woods surrounding her home crawled with ghosts, goblins, and the restless dead. On the eve of her 18th birthday, she learns that she is connected to these creatures and to the land itself in a way she never imagined, for she is the reincarnation of a powerful witch who was put to death on the very day Emmy was born. For this reason, the townsfolk mean to kill her too. In order to survive, Emmy must embrace the unusual powers at her command."
  • Riddick - Based on the movies.

Two undercover agents investigating a bizarre murder are pulled into this supernatural conflict and discover it’s more dangerous and far-reaching than anything they could have imagined."
  • Malefico (Starz) - Based on the popular Mexican production “El Maleficio,” which originally aired in 1983-84 with 320 episodes. "The new supernatural thriller will center on Don Enrique De Martino, a powerful Mexican businessman who has made a deadly pact with the Devil."
