A new time travel genre show, Fix It Men, has been picked up for distribution by ABC Studios.
Created by John Glenn and produced by Mark Gordon as part of an overall development deal with the studio, Fix It Men is an hour-long show that centers on a scientist and a special-forces soldier from a post-apocalyptic future who travel in time to our present day and into their younger selves in an effort to forestall Armageddon. They must alter a series of seemingly random events that form the chain leading to the catastrophe. Miss any one and all will be lost.
ABC Studios will handle distribution in the United States and Sonar does so for the rest of the world.
“Fix It Men is destined to be a buzzed about series. It’s original and will have trend-setting production values. Combining a brilliant writer like John Glenn with Mark Gordon’s top-notch producing team and Stewart Till’s international sales expertise is the recipe for a high quality drama,” said Executive VP ABC Studios creative and production Barry Jossen in a statement announcing the news Tuesday.
Added Sonar Entertainment CEO Stewart Till: “Fix It Men is a fast-paced story that combines action and suspense. It has universal appeal that will grab and hold onto any audience looking to be entertained, captivated and surprised. We are really looking forward to taking Fix It Men out to the international marketplace.”
