Hmm... Men in Black as a copycat TV series?
Would it be set on the moon and interplanetary space or earth-bound?

The ABC project reminds me of the DC comic series Manhunter but without supervillains.

It says "eliminating alien threats in outer space," not "from outer space," so that suggests it isn't Earthbound.

I hate the title. It sounds like it's a show about people courting lung cancer. I hope they change it.
