Bryan Fuller Leaves Heroes… Again!
Monday, June 22nd, 2009
It seems that the mastermind behind Wonderfalls and Pushing Daisies won’t be sticking around on Heroes after all…
From AICN:
“Development was really starting to heat up, And it appears like I may be writing multiple pilots for NBC so that wasn’t leaving a ton of room for ‘Heroes,’ unfortunately,” the star writer-producer tells AICN exclusively. “We crafted some really great arcs for the season that I’m excited to see come to fruition. I love that cast dearly and am sad to go, but the plate — she was over-flowing.”
Fuller, of course, is the “Dead Like Me”/”Wonderfalls”/”Pushing Daisies” creator who wrote the best “Heroes” episodes, including “Company Man” and “Cold Snap.” He left “Heroes” near the end of its first season to create “Daisies,” then returned to “Heroes” near the end of last season.
Fuller is under contract with “Heroes” producer NBC Universal for another year and a half, and has been preparing new series pitches for the media giant since he left Warner Bros.’ “Daisies.” He’s also expressed an ambition to eventually create, or help create, a new Paramount TV series set in J.J. Abrams’ new “Star Trek” universe.

Well, this is the final nail in the coffin for Heroes for me. I’m never watching the show again.
Whatever Fuller is doing next, however, I’ll be there with bells on.
I think your to hard on it , I love heroes even during the bad season , I think he just want to push it where he wants it and now there new writers , Think of it like this now he can work on new stuff and maybe maybe a better show , hopefully a show that last more then 2 seasons .
I actually thought Heroes Season [which ever this last one was] ended on a pretty interesting note.
Still, any idea is only as good as the writing team.
dear god, a fuller helmed Star Trek Show? I might actually become a trekkie if that day happened
I too will most likely stop watching Heroes when it comes back. They lost me when they ressurected Ali Larter for the ninth time
