(Brian Kahn is writing this bio, and this is the only time  he will refer to himself in the third person…ever!)

Brian Kahn is an award-winning television writer and producer with over (hand over mouth mumbling) years of experience in the entertainment industry. He has worked across comedy, drama, animation, and has mastered the elusive art of addressing the note, "It needs to be edgier."

Previously, Brian served as a Creative Director of Comedy and Animation at FOX Entertainment, where, as a writer, director, and producer, he oversaw network specials for FOX Creative Advertising and developed campaigns and promos for a wide range of series, including Animal Control, The Masked Singer, 9-1-1, The Simpsons, Family Guy, Bob’s Burgers, New Girl, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Glee, and House.

His extensive career began as a writer’s assistant on The Golden Girls - despite persistent rumors, which he started himself, Brian did not date Rue McClanahan - followed by writing and producing roles on Here and Now (NBC), Cousin Skeeter, Malcolm & Eddie, the animated series Duckman, and the original pilot Late Bloomer (Paramount).

Brian cut his teeth in the fast-moving world of entertainment news at E! Entertainment, serving as a writer-producer for the daily series The Daily 10.

He later joined FOX Sports, contributing to the tone and content of The Best Damn Sports Show Period. Brian recently completed Trust Issues, a darkly comedic tech thriller exploring AI, media manipulation, and the pursuit of relevance.

He is a member of the Writers Guild of America, the Producers Guild of America, and the Television Academy.
