More Abrams News: He Might Direct The Pilot Of His New Show

Here is yet another story in a week filled with J.J. Abrams news:J.J. Abrams wants to take a hands-on approach to Undercovers, his pilot at NBC. In addition to co-writing and executive producing the project with Josh Reims, Abrams is in talks to direct the Warner Bros. TV-produced pilot. NBCs Undercovers, about a husband and wife working together as spies, has been described as a mix between Mr. & Mrs. Smith and The Bourne Identity.When it comes to Abrams, I'm like how twelve year old girls are with Edward the glittering vampire, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. The guy is simply one of the best genre people working right now, and I always highly anticipate his next project.And when it comes to the TV shows he's been involved with, "Fringe" is just decent but "Alias" is one of my favorites of all time. And "Lost"? Well, I would murder someone if they made me miss an episode from the upcoming final season. Literally, murder them, while crying and saying "It'll all be better soon." So yeah, I'm on board for this.Source: The Live Feed
