Is Bryan Fuller Moving on to Heroes?
In case you haven’t heard, NBC has fired two of Heroes writer-producers the other day. They’ve been at the core of production since Season 1 and has left the show because of “creative differences” with the network bosses. The complete story of this is at Watching Heroes.
Now what does this have to do with Bryan Fuller, creator of Pushing Daisies?
I read something that raises the alarm bell for me today. Is Bryan Fuller getting back on board Heroes? Kristin from E! Online reports:
I’ve just been told by reliable insiders at NBC that Heroes most likely will replace Jeph Loeb and Jesse Alexander with at least one new writer-producer, and one of the names being tossed around is Bryan Fuller, the creative genius who served as a consulting producer for the first half of the first season.
The upside? This would be nothing short of awesome, as Fuller’s Heroes episodes were some of the strongest ever. If anyone can save this show, he can.
The downside? One would assume this could only happen if Fuller’s current obligation, Pushing Daisies (which he created), does not get picked up, which would be a heart-breaking TV tragedy. Though perhaps he could do both Heroes and Daisies and double the awesomeness in our living rooms? A girl can dream…
On one hand, I’d feel very happy and delighted for him. Such a creative mind should not be left with nothing to do. He’s definitely an asset. On the other hand if this pushes through —- what now, Pushing Daisies?
