Fox has added ‘Past Life,’ another drama, to its fall roster.

Based on the novel ‘The Reincarnationist’ by MJ Rose, the series uses the concept of reincarnation to solve present-day mysteries caused by past-life traumas.

Created by David Hudgins (‘Friday Night Lights’ and ‘Everwood)’ the show stars Kelli Giddish (‘Life on Mars’), and Nicholas Bishop (‘Home and Away’), who are pictured; and Ravi Patel (‘Transformers’) and Richard Schiff (‘The West Wing.)’

On Tuesday, Fox picked up two other new series: ‘Human Target,’ based on the DC comics book about a private detective/bodyguard who impersonates his clients to eliminate threats against them, and ‘Sons of Tucson,’ a single-camera comedy about three brothers who hire someone to pretend to be their father when their dad is sent to prison for a white-collar crime.
