Scott will make his TV directorial debut on a new TNT show called Raised by Wolves which, in true Scott fashion, is a high-concept sci-fi show. According to a press release, Raised by Wolves is about "two androids tasked with raising human children on a mysterious virgin planet.

TNT just gave the show a straight to series order, meaning you will see it on the air in the future.

And copy the looks and style of 'Star Trek' or 'Firefly,' then recycle the same storylines from those shows.

Will it be a comedy? I can imagine a couple of snarky tech-savvy pre-teens hacking their video game systems to take control of their guardians and playing "Rock'em-Sock'em-Androids". (The kids would be the wolves… ;-)

Sounds like the plot is an excuse for Hollyweird types to preach about the evils of being white, male, and middle class.
