Though he has never showrun a property that has quite the same fanbase as Star Trek(because, let’s face it, few things do…), his shows have always inspired rabid followings and, unlike many showrunners and producers, he has never condescended to that fannish passion. Subscribe He embraces fandom - fanboys and fangirls alike.įuller isn’t professionally unfamiliar with fandom. It finds beauty in the darkest things, and pins meaning onto the meaninglessness, just to see what it looks like - while never devolving into emotional exploitation. Even Hannibal,arguably the darkest of the shows he has created ( Dead Like Mecan be pretty depressing…), is laugh out loud funny at times.

(He pulls this off by grounding absurd happenings with consistent characterization.) All of his shows are funny, deeply sad, occasionally horrifying, full of a sense of wonder, and always beautiful. One of the things Fuller does incredibly well as a storyteller is mix seemingly disparate tones in an organic way. Unlike some recent incarnations of the Star Trekstory, I’m guessing Fuller will cast more than one woman in the main cast - and, hopefully, have a more diverse cast in general (as diversity is an important part of the Star Treklegacy). I would love to do that version of the show and but that’s in the future to be told. I would love to do something on the Reliant … I want Angela Bassett to be the captain, that’s who I would love to have, you know Captain Angela Bassett and First Officer Rosario Dawson.

In a 2013 interview with Den of Geek, Fuller commented on what his (at the time, hypothetical) Star Trek reboot series might look like, starting with casting a female character of color in the captain role:
Long before the relatively recent pushback against the Strong Female Character trope, Fuller was writing interesting, compelling female characters by (and here’s the secret) treating them like three-dimensional people. Fuller has always seemed to favor ensemble casts for his storytelling, but these shows demonstrated an interest and talent for writing female characters who aren’t caricatures of what female characters are supposed to be. He has a history of creating awesome female characters.īryan Fuller’s first shows as creator and showrunner - Dead Like Meand Wonderfalls- were both centered around young, brilliant, confused, brave women. Guys, Bryan Fuller (as with all of his shows) is taking this responsibility very, very seriously. It is without exaggeration a dream come true to be crafting a brand new iteration of Star Trek. Just remember to add spices (nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves) with the dry ingredients, extracts (vanilla, almond) and zests (lemon, orange) with the wet, and mix-ins (berries, chocolate chips, walnuts) after the batter comes together.Fuller got noticed when he submitted a spec script through Star Trek’sopen submission system, before going on to act as a staff writer and eventual co-producer on Star Trek: Voyager. In a press release for the showrunning announcement, Fuller said…īefore seeing a frame of the television series, the Star Trek universe lit my imagination on fire. Once you've got that down, you can add spices, extracts, zests, and mix-ins to your heart's content. That's it.īut that's also just the beginning. From there, it's just a little sugar and salt for flavor, baking powder for fluffiness, and melted butter or oil to keep your pancake from sticking to the pan. Just remember: 1 cup of flour - 1 egg - 1 cup of milk.
My basic recipe is easy enough that you may even be able to memorize it. All you need is one good, basic recipe, and from there you can add all sorts of flavors, nuts, berries, or even candy that you like.
Now, here's a little secret about pancakes: they're super easy to customize. So, with a Wonderfalls reunion happening at Comic Con, and fresh figs making an appearance at the neighborhood farmer's market, I was inspired to make some fig pancakes in honor of the short-lived series.
