ABC did not simply spend its Thursday confirming comedy orders.<\/p>\n

The network also picked up six drama pilots.<\/p>\n

Drama efforts heading to series include “The Family,” “Quantico,” “The Catch,” “Of Kings and Prophets,” “Wicked City” and an “Untitled Pate & Fishburne Project”<\/p>\n

A thriller, “The Family” follows what happens when a politician’s young son returns ten years after being presumed dead.<\/p>\n

“Quantico” chronicles a group of new recruits–one of whom is suspected of having involvement in a new terrorist attack–at the FBI’s Quantico base.<\/p>\n

With Shonda Rhimes on board as an executive producer, “The Catch” focuses on a fraud investigator who becomes the victim of fraud at the hands of her fiance.<\/p>\n

“Of Kings and Prophets” is dubbed an “epic Biblical saga of faith, ambition and betrayal.”<\/p>\n

Designed as an anthology, “Wicked City” devotes each season to a crime set in a different period of LA history. It starts with “a murder case from 1982 centered on the rock and roll, cocaine-infused revelry of the Sunset Strip.”<\/p>\n

The “Untitled Pate & Fishburne Project” focuses on an ambitious couple that finds itself pitted against a ruthless tycoon.<\/p>\n
