Lost and Fringe mastermind J.J. Abrams will next take a stab at comedy with a half-hour sitcom for Fox, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

As with all Abrams projects, details of the as-yet-untitled series, described as a "comedic medical show," are being kept under wraps. Fox has already ordered a presentation.
