Never before has so little information gotten me so excited about a TV show.
Here's all I know. It's written by Christopher McQuarrie, who penned
The Usual Suspects. That's good. It's about a group of strangers who wake up in a deserted town with no idea how they got there. They're being monitored by security cameras and have to work together on solving a puzzle to escape. It's
Lost meets
The Prisoner. That's it.
NBC picked up Persons Unknown for a thirteen-episode run and we're promised that it will be heavily serialized. I'm sold. I love the idea of different people from different backgrounds having to work together, and I have complete faith in McQuarrie.
The Usual Suspects is one of the most brilliantly penned films I've ever seen.

I love the new
Battlestar Galactica series as much as the next fan, but could Sci-Fi be banking too much on the series
too soon? Among other shows in development, the cable channel has
recently announced a new prequel spin-off
series, called
Caprica, which will take place 50 years before the events of
Battlestar Galactica. The series is said to focus on the development of the first cylon while following the
familes of the Adamas and the Graystones. I know I'll definitely be catching it.
Other shows in development
for Sci-Fi after the jump.
