The Special Projects Departments is a small L.A Branch that deals with the unexplained, and otherwise unsolved cases, that may or may not be linked with the term "supernatural" or "otherworldly". Being transfered to the Deparment, having completing her five year course on the police academy, Officer Allison Baxter (Jennifer Garner) teams up with longtime detective, David Johnston (Nathan Fillion), in hopes of solving these cases, and making the city of L.A a much safer place.
(portrayed by Nathan Fillion)
For several years, David Jonhnston has worked alongside Chief Phillips over at the Special Projects Department, following leads on alien abductions, vampirism, and other nasties that swoop this dark city of Los Angeles; and when being partnered with Officer Baxter, the investigation on the supernatural becomes more and more intense. But, his quirky attitude, and innappropriate humour can be seen as nothing but a guise, as his dark past with the things that go bump in the night beings to come to the surface; revealing that he too was once abducted by aliens. As he struggles to uncover everything that happened to him for the past three years he blacked out, Detective David Johnston finds himself in the thick of it; risking anything to reveal the truth to the world! But will they believe him?
(portrayed by Jennifer Garner)
Devoting five years of her life at the Police Academy, Allison Baxters' contracted service was complete, and she was transfered to the Special Projects Department over in Los Angeles. Believing that some things are better left unexplained, she also has a strong opinion against the supernatural; seeing it as nothing but myths and legends to swerve people from the truth: that the government is fighting to take over the world. She too, like Detective Johnston, enjoys taking the occassional risk; and sometimes finds herself in more trouble than she bargained for - but with all that's happening around her, and this new supernatural evil rising in the city, its hard for her to come up with another scientific excuse to back it up. Do aliens exist? Are there other things out there than humans? She'll have to discover this on her own!

There will be a total of 13 episodes per season. This first season will have an overal big bad and will not just consist of case after case after case. As you can see, my main inspiration was the X-Files, and I hope to do a more modern kind of take of it. These two main characters aren't the only people in the show. There are a group of experts (lab techs, scientists, etc) working the labs over at the Special Projects Department. More characters will be introduced as the season progresses, and if things go well, next season will have a new regular; a detective just like David. Feedback is much appreaciated XD
