Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer get their own show on ABC! And it's steampunk?

It seems that Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer from Mark Twain's 1884 novel Adventures of Huckleberry Finn are heading to ABC to star in their very own show. The show will be titled Finn & Sawyer and is described as "an adventure-themed reinvention that revolves around the two famed literary characters who re-meet as young men in their 20s and form an investigative firm in a bustling and steampunk New Orleans."

Finn & Sawyer will be written and executive produced by Jason Richman and David Zabel (Detroit 1-8-7 and ER). The show could definitely bring up some interesting stories with the characters being in their 20s and being set in a steampunk environment.
