jabrams talks undercovers … [sort of]

yes, but will they be as awesome as these guys? // abc promotional photo

So the most anticipated series of next fall (at least by me) is undoubtedly Undercovers, the pilot being produced and (likely) directed by JJ Abrams.  He told TV Guide Magazine yesterday:

We’re just casting now and it’s obviously really hard. We’re hoping to do a show that is a lighter and sort of more wish-fulfillment show. That’s not to say it’s fantasy or anything, but it’s got an energy that feels, again, like something that I would want to watch – but that doesn’t necessarily guarantee that anyone else will. But it’s something that for me feels like a fun look at a genre, the spy genre, that I’ve worked in before but in a way that while familiar in some ways feels very, very different.

Oh, Jabrams and your cryptic words.  How I’ve missed you so.  I have no idea what a “more wish-fulfillment show” means.  But I promise you I want to watch it.  That’s really all there is to say or analyze about what he’s saying, other than PLEASE CAST IT NOW PLEASE.
