History Creator / BryanFuller

'''Bryan Fuller''' (born July 27, 1969) is an American screenwriter and producer known for being involved with TV shows that ([[Series/{{Heroes}} almost]]) never find mainstream success, yet have dedicated cult followings. Starting his TV writing career on the ''Franchise/StarTrek'' franchise and on the TV remake of ''{{Carrie}}'', Fuller soon began to come into his own following the TurnOfTheMillennium, when he began creation and co-creating his own works.

Famous for starting [[BlackComedy dark-yet-humorous]] hit [[CultClassic cult shows]], his notable, independent early works include ''Series/DeadLikeMe'' (2003-04), ''Series/{{Wonderfalls}}'' (2004), and ''PushingDaisies'' (2007-2009). He also was an executive producer on the first, fourth and fifth volumes (because Seasons aren't comic book-y enough) of ''Series/{{Heroes}}'', and wrote fan-favorite episode "Company Man".

Known for his wildly original, sophisticated and usually macabre work; lamentably, his series tend to not last too long. [[note]] Consider this, when ''Series/{{Hannibal}}'' got renewed for a third season, an initial reaction among fans was ''disbelief'', as it was his first show to make it to a third season. [[/note]] Fuller seems to be fond of giving female leads {{Tomboyish Name}}s. All of his series (yes, even the DarkerAndEdgier PlayingAgainstType ''Hannibal'') share a universe.

** ''Hannibal'' was specifically contracted to air 13-episode seasons

* OneOfUs: A big fan of the ''Franchise/StarTrek'' series, he ended up on the writing team for 22 episodes. Besides that, occasional {{Shout Out}}s can be found hidden in places.
* [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers One of These Things is Not Like the Others]]: The shows he has created; ''Dead Like Me'', ''Wonderfalls'', ''Pushing Dasies'' and '''Hannibal'''.

During Fall 2012, he attempted a reboot of ''TheMunsters'' for Creator/{{NBC}}, dubbed ''Series/MockingbirdLane'', which did not make it past the pilot stage. His latest series is the crime series ''Series/{{Hannibal}}'', based on the character of [[Literature/TheSilenceOfTheLambs Hannibal Lecter]], running since April 2013 on Creator/{{NBC}}. Hannibal is an especially notable entry as, not only did season one mark the first time he got to end a first season on his own terms, but it's his first show not to be ScrewedByTheNetwork before reaching season three. He is also currently working on a television adaptation of the Creator/NeilGaiman novel ''Literature/AmericanGods'', which he will co-Produce with Michael Green.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: And ''how.'' Despite making shows with strong fandoms and great responses, several of his shows have been subject to cancellation. Put it this way: when ''Hannibal'' was the first of his shows to receive a third season, ''a large part of the fan-response was disbelief.''
