ABC had given a put pilot commitment to "Long Island Sound," a family comedy from "Mad About You" co-creator Danny Jacobson and "Repo Man" star Emilio Estevez.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, several networks were circling the Estevez vehicle and there's a substantial penalty attached to ABC's pilot commitment.

If "Long Island Sound" goes to series, it would place members of the Estevez family as regulars on three different networks. Father Martin Sheen (born Ramon Estevez) stars on NBC's "The West Wing" and brother Charlie Sheen is on CBS' "Two and a Half Men." Estevez's ex-wife Paula Abdul is an "American Idol" judge over on FOX.


The new series is actually produced by the Tannenbaum Co., which produces "Two and a Half Men." Eric and Kim Tannenbaum will executive produce with Jacobson, while Estevez will serve as a producer.
The script, by Jacobson, focuses on a Long Island family man who is fired from a big engineering job after the Sept. 11 attacks and has to reevaluate his life as he becomes a successful small-business entrepreneur. He lives with his wife, two kids, a socially active aunt and her Alzheimers-inflicted father.

"Hopefully it will come across as human and funny and real," Jacobson says.

Estevez, largely out of the public eye in recent years, has appeared in films from "The Outsiders" to "The Breakfast Club" to "Might Ducks" to "Freejack." Last season he directed for CBS' "The Guardian."
