Panelist Bios:

Bryan Paulk is a writer, director, and executive producer with a long track record in comedy, unscripted television, scripted and hybrid formats. Over the past two decades, he’s helped define the tone and structure of some of TV’s most recognizable shows, including Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Crank Yankers and Chelsea, where he served as head writer, writer, and director. In addition to his late-night and sketch work, Bryan has led development and showrunning efforts for unscripted and branded series with The Jim Henson Company, Funny or Die, Comedy Bang Bang, and, most recently, the relaunch of Duck Dynasty, where he brought comedic storytelling to a beloved reality franchise. Whether working with celebrities, real people, or puppets, he’s known for bringing sharp writing, vision, and grounded humor to every project. Bryan has executive produced, directed, written, and showrun thousands of hours of TV, including ABC, NBC, Comedy Central, Netflix, Hulu, MTV, Prime, and Discovery. His work has earned him six WGA and Emmy Award nominations (he never won because they’re rigged).
