Development and production In January 2009, The Gates was among numerous pilot scripts being considered by ABC for the 2009–2010 season. It was not until October 2009 that ABC first announced development of the series, which is an international co-production for Fox Television Studios through their international paradigm. A green-light for the 13 episode order was contingent on international financing for the project, which makes the series more economically feasible as a summer replacement.
