Oswalt & Giamatti & Fuller Together?? The Latest From The Creator of WONDERFALLS & DEAD LIKE ME!!

I am – Hercules!!

Comedy genius Bryan Fuller, who created both “Wonderfalls” and “Dead Like Me,” has been busy writing and producing his latest pilot, SciFi Channel’s animated half-hour “Amazing Screw-On Head,” which Fuller adapted from the comic book character created by Mike Mignola (“Hellboy”). It’s a supernatural Civil War-era comedy about an otherworldly U.S. operative who can screw his head onto a variety of mechanical bodies.

I’ve read the script, and am here to tell you it’s hilarity itself, a cross between “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” and the old “Wild Wild West” TV series.

Now comes word that the ASOH pilot has been completed. Here’s who’s playing what:
* The Amazing Screw-On Head: Paul Giamatti
* ASOH manservant Mr. Groin: Patton Oswalt
* ASOH archnemesis (and former manservant) Emperor Zombie: David Hyde Pierce
* Patience the Vampire: Molly Shannon
* Zombie henchwomen Aggie & Geraldine: Mindy “Frau Farbissina” Sterling
