FX orders 'Powers' pilot

Just after a week it ordered the Ryan Murphy-Brad Falchuk pilot “American Horror Story,” FX is ramping up with “Powers.” Powers

Drama, based on the graphic novel by Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Avon Oeming, centers on a pair of detectives who deal with cases involving people with superpower ability.

Pilot, from Sony Pictures Television and FX Prods., is written by Charles “Chick” Eglee and directed by Michael Dinner, who brought the project the cabler. Production is set to begin in the late spring.

On the heels of “Terriers” being canceled after its first season, “Lights Out” struggling to get ratings traction and “Rescue Me” starting its final episodes in the summer, FX is looking for a new drama to help fill out its schedule.

Network is expecting to give either “Powers,” “American Horror Story” or “Outlaw Country” — or maybe two of them — a pickup in the next few months in order to accommodate a fall debut.

Circle of Confusion is the shingle behind “Powers,“ with Dinner and Eglee set to exec produce.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

A man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-gardener of his soul, the director of his life. A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life. All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better. All the art of living lies in a fine mingling of letting go and holding on. Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out. Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact.

First, the artist acts as god by concocting a world, or a system for generating beauty.
