    Gosh, this is hard. I went with Joss Whedon for quantity (all of the listed choices have quality). Great poll!

    Hmmm, is that Mitchell Hurwitz, Arrested Development's creator?
    If so...
    Then from the choices on this list ... . Bryan Fuller and Mitchell Hurwitz.


    I would add David Lynch (Twin Peaks) , David Simon (The Wire), Rob Thomas (Veronica Mars, Party Down), and to a lesser degree Bill Lawrence (Spin City, Scrubs, Cougar Town) since while those shows have rabid fans, I'm not sure they have a cult following exactly...

    Definitely Whedon, but Fuller was a close second. That guy is on fire!

  18. Pablo Troncoso16 March 2014 at 13:57

    As much as I love Dan Harmon and Joss Wheadon I have to go with Bryan Fuller: Pushing Daisies, Dead Like Me, Hannibal, even Mocking Bird Lane, how is this guy not leading the poll?

    ReplyDelete
  19. Luana Arturi16 March 2014 at 14:38

    I had to go with Adam Fuller for Quality.
    Steven Moffat won an honorary second spot because it's only Sherlock I've watched but that alone is far better than most for me.
    For quantity I guess JJ Abrams takes the gold with a lot of good shows.

  20. Luana Arturi16 March 2014 at 15:00

    seriously? The creator of Devious Maids?

  21. calamitydjane16 March 2014 at 15:28

    David Lynch, Rob Thomas, Cris Carter... Now if I had to choose a name on this list I'd pick JJ Abrams because of Lost, Fringe, Alias...

  22. Hurley16 March 2014 at 15:33

    Bryan Fuller and Shonda Rhymes for me

    This Poll Pinned Me Against My Favourites Joss Whedon And JJ Abrams, So I Choose Both.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Shay16 March 2014 at 16:20

    Having to pick just one hurt...because I jump whenever I see JJ Abrams or Joss Whedon's name on something, and I find Dan Harmon an interesting person whose work I'll start following because of Community - when the season without a show runner feels sub-par and then feels fresh again with that show runner's return, the show runner is something special.

  25. Lou16 March 2014 at 16:26

    Whedon and Fuller for me, I wouldn't count JJ in this list because he doesn't have a lot to do with the shows he creates after the first season or so.

  26. AngelaRobinson9016 March 2014 at 16:26

    Rob Thomas.

    JJ Abrams, no doubt

    Kurt Sutter is a genius, a name that mustn't be forgotten IMO.

  29. Trololo16 March 2014 at 17:10

    It's really hard to choose one. Whedon, Fuller, Harmon and Moffat are fantastic writers, and I'd also like to add Rob Thomas and Josh Schwartz to the list.

    ah ok, thanks for the clarification I was a little concerned, I do understand some people enjoy DM but I'd never go as far as congratulating the creators.

  33. TarotManiac16 March 2014 at 18:17

    Bryan Fuller hands down! JJ Abrams, Marc Cherry, Rob Thomas, Shonda Rhimes, David E. Kelly, and Aaron Sorkin come second.

  34. TarotManiac16 March 2014 at 18:20

    I personally think DM is very cleaver, there are definitely lots of issues but it's proven to be a ratings success, ABC really missed out by passing on it

    J. Whedon, B. Fuller, M. Gatiss, C. Carter, V. Gilligan, D. Lynch.

    Bryan Fuller without hesitation!
    Good idea but the poll is seriously lacking ladies....

  37. AnnoDomini16 March 2014 at 20:54

    Eric Kripke for me for creating a series that I just have to watch religiously since I was pulled into that universe ever since the pilot episode in 2005. And then maybe Ben Edlund after him(and I still want to see Edlund create his own show and run it).

  38. rehabber17 March 2014 at 01:04

    Yes, I would love to see what Edlund could do.

    I have no idea who Bryan Fuller is...and yet he's "winning" the poll. Interesting. I chose Joss Whedon. My second would be JJ Abrams.

  42. Titania100017 March 2014 at 12:22

    The poll is fair if you have any doubt about the subject.. Spoiler TV is known to have an efficient system of control that doesn't allow people to vote more than once.


    You may not known Bryan Fuller but is nonetheless a famous showrunner who created short lived shows (unfortunetaly) that however managed to gather strong fanbases: Wonderfalls, Pushing Daisies and Dead like me are considered cult shows nowadays.


    He's currently producing and writing Hannibal, a new adaptation of Thomas Harris books, which is considered by the critics and lot of professionals to be the best show on TV.
    And once again, the fanbase is very strong: the word has spreaded very quickly on tumblr that Bryan was included in this poll, and fannibals being very responsive as usually, came to vote to show him our gratefulness for his very nice and kind words to us, and all the time he takes to answer as many tweets as he can, and all the goodies he shares with us: pics, contest, gifts....


    So, it's just the power of this fandom, not some tricks, that makes him win.

    I think you misinterpreter my comment which was to express surprise at myself for never hearing of someone that everyone apparently knew. Rehabber posted the link to his IMDB profile and I read up. That was it. My comment had nothing to do with questioning the validity of the polling process on the site.

  44. allisonduck17 March 2014 at 14:15

    Joss Whedon or Bryan Fuller. Both for their talent and attitudes.
    Used to like Moffat's stuff but came to my senses and saw the hard truth after Sherlock S3 :(

  45. Luana Arturi17 March 2014 at 14:22

    I think that ratings don't mean a show it's good, they only meand that a lot of people enjoy it and that's ok, everybody has their guilty pleasures but that does not make it quality TV let alone a cult show.

  46. Daphne Poon17 March 2014 at 15:08

    Bryan Fuller definitely. Used to love Doctor Who but it's not as engaging as Pushing Daisies / Hannibal. Sorry Moff!

  48. Kay Bay17 March 2014 at 15:31

    If it was surprise at yourself and not at the poll, then why was the "winning" necessary? It is very easy to see why Titania1000 took your comment the way he/she did with the way your comment was worded.

    ReplyDelete
  49. cindychandler17 March 2014 at 16:11

    I really am sorry about the confusion. I quoted "winning" because I didn't know if that word was really the appropriate word; I didn't mean it in a snarky way. But I understand now how what I thought was an innocuous remark could have come off differently. Sorry.

    Lol. I'm sorry too, I should have just stayed out of it. After the time and care Titania1000 put into her response I just wanted to show support that her understanding of the post wasn't completely off base.

    Don't feel bad, I did not know who he was either, have not cared for any of his series, and I did not take it that you were complaining about how the poll was run. That is why I sent you the link, I had to look him up also.
