USA has a new project in development from Psych creator Steve Franks – and he’s got some writers working with him that are pretty familiar. Especially if you’re, well, me...

Travis Fickett and Terry Matalas will write and co-executive produce the currently untitled drama, reports Deadline . Travis’ name should especially be familiar if you’re a longtime IGN TV reader, since he used to work alongside me here. And, full disclosure, I’ve known Travis and Terry since we went to college together. (Congratulations, guys!)The story is about a brother and sister who take over the family’s investment firm after the death of their parents, only to find out the true nature of the business was not what they’d been told. Franks will supervise and executive produce.Travis and Terry worked as writers on Terra Nova last year and are now writers on Nikita, as that series goes into its third season.In addition, USA also has a new half hour comedy in development from Royal Pains co-creator Andrew Lenchewski. Benjamin Brand will write the script to Speak American, described as the story of a “a young accent-reduction teacher with unconventional methods.”Deadline notes that USA is aggressively working to have an original comedy on the air by fall 2013, when they begin airing episodes of Modern Family.
