Ever wonder how all those spies learn their secret skills? ABC Family is planning to reveal all with their new series, Shadows.

The new show, created by relative newcomer Jesse Peyronel, will focus on a secret program at Harvard that trains students how to become deadly spies. Given the tone of the network, I don't expect something grim and gritty, but something Alias or Chuck-esque? Sure, I can see that happening. Sadly, there's been no announcement as yet to when the show will begin airing.
