Lost producer goes to the Fringe

LostIt looks like one of the executive producers of Lost is moving to another network. Fox has tapped Jeff Pinker to run Fringe, their new high profile sci-fi police drama from J.J. Abrams, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci.

Fringe will be produced by Warner Brothers with Pinkner serving as executive producers and showrunner. Pinkner and J.J. Abrams have a history of working together since Abrams' previous ABC show Alias.

The new project centers on an FBI agent who teams up with a guy and his scientist father to confront unexplained phenomena. I can see why Fox went for this show. It's the J.J. Abrams version of The X-Files.

The series' premise also has a little bit of Eleventh Hour mixed in, which is a British series that Jerry Bruckheimer is importing and adapting for the U.S. to be broadcast on CBS. It feels like all the networks are copying each other's shows. Isn't there any originality in television anymore? I know. Silly question.
