Before 'Crystal Lake', Bryan Fuller's Overlooked Dark Fantasy 'Dead Like Me' Streams Free on Tubi

Long before Bryan Fuller became a household name for horror fans with Hannibal and the upcoming Crystal Lake prequel series, he created Dead Like Me, an overlooked dark fantasy comedy that is now available to stream for free on Tubi. The series, which premiered in 2003 on Showtime, follows George Lass, a young woman who dies and becomes a grim reaper responsible for collecting souls. Fuller served as creator and showrunner for the first season, establishing the show's signature blend of morbid humor and heartfelt drama. Dead Like Me ran for two seasons and later spawned a direct-to-DVD movie, but it remains a cult favorite rather than a mainstream hit. With Fuller's return to horror with Crystal Lake, a prequel to Friday the 13th, now is the perfect time for viewers to discover—or revisit—this early gem. Both seasons are streaming free on Tubi, making it an easy binge for fans of supernatural storytelling.
