They had me at “White House Sci-Fi Series.” ABC has handed out a put pilot commitment to a project entitled Ex-Comm. The premise: “Ex-Comm” stands for “Executive Committee” a top-secret team of elite minds working for the newly-elected president, investigating and protecting our nation from the strangest occurrences and “conspiracy theory truths” out there. It is said to be a drama with comedy. OK, like most of the best dramas, Fringe in particular.

But wait til you see who is signed up to write the show: Jon Favreau, Roberto Orci, Seth Green and Michael Dougherty. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? It’s a Super Group, a Dream Team. Deadline reports:

Robot Chicken co-creator Green and Superman Returns/X Men 2 co-writer Dougherty hatched the idea and took it to Kurtzman and Orci’s company. Meanwhile, Kurtzman and Orci co-wrote this past summer’s Cowboys & Aliens movie, which Favreau directed. While abroad doing press for the film with the rest of the cast and crew, Orci was working on the Ex-Comm pitch, and that’s how Favreau heard about it and came on board.

Iron Man director Favreau is set to direct the potential pilot, with 20th Century Fox TV and Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci’s studio-based K/O Paper Products producing. Obviously, we’ll keep you posted with developments.
