Uber-Writer Bryan Fuller: If ABC Mows DAISIES, I’ll ‘Definitely’ Return To HEROES!!
I am – Hercules!!
Bryan Fuller, who wrote the best episodes of NBC's “Heroes” during its first, best season, tells EW.com he’s returning to “Heroes” if “Pushing Daisies” doesn’t get a midseason pickup:
"I am exclusive to Daisies through the delivery of the 13th episode of our 13-episode order, which will be mid-January," says Fuller. "If Daisies isn't picked up by then, I will definitely be going back to play with my friends at Heroes."
ABC's hilarious “Daisies,” which lost a ton of viewers during the long strike-spawned hiatus separating its first and second seasons, seems a long-shot for a full-season order.
Fuller created “Daisies” as well as “Dead Like Me” and “Wonderfalls,” and his departure from "Heroes" late in season one seems to exactly correlate to the point at which “Heroes” lost its creative way.
With lead writers Jeph Loeb and Jesse Alexander having recently departed “Heroes,” it’s likely Fuller will have a bigger role than ever in helping creator Tim Kring steer the superhero drama.
