Executives at ABC announced Monday that the network will premier a new Lost spin-off series this fall based around that show’s popular smoke monster character.

The new series, a half-hour family-oriented comedy called Where There’s Smoke, is touted by ABC as the new anchor of its Thursday-night lineup.

ABC sources reported that the series will transplant the evil black cloud from the island of Lost to the suburbs of Chicago, where it works as a sports radio host, surrounded by “a whole new group of crazy characters.” Actress Lea Thompson has signed on to play the monster’s long-suffering wife, who must put up with her husband’s screwball antics while raising the couple’s two rambunctious children, Tanner and Smoky, Jr.
