Fox greenlighted a single-camera comedy pilot based on British series, Spaced. The project was originally picked up by the network back in October, with a put pilot commitment.
Wonderland Sound and Vision is behind the show, along with Warner Bros. TV and Granada, which holds format rights. McG, Peter Johnson, Adam Barr and Robert Green are executive producers.
Spaced revolves around two strangers who pose as a married couple in order to rent an apartment and become intimately involved with the other misfits in the building. The series has been nominated for a BAFTA and an International Emmy Award.
