Neil Gaiman, author of the amazing novel American Gods will pen episodes of the upcoming Starz show, according to an interview showrunner Bryan Fuller did with Collider. As you may know, Gaiman has written for television before, on shows like Babylon 5 and more recently, the best (yes, I said it) episodes of the current incarnation of Doctor Who. Seriously, watch the episode he wrote which personified the TARDIS. Try not to cry. Just try! Fuller just came off the series Hannibal, which was recently canceled, much to the chagrin of fans. That show will likely be picked up by another network or a streaming service. No word if Fuller will be able to write for both shows.

Have you guys read American Gods? Are you excited for the show? Let us know below.
