Remake, spinoff or sequel? Remake

Source material: The Israeli series "Mythological X," which aired in that country in 2007.

What's new: For starters, the possibilities of a second season: The original, about a woman who goes back through all her ex-boyfriends after a psychic tells her she's already met the man she's destined to marry, ran for only 11 episodes.

What's not: No reinvention of the premise here, as our single heroine (Elizabeth Reaser) tries to track down her One and Only within a year, lest the psychic's other prediction -- that if she doesn't find him in a year, she'll die alone -- come true.
