NBC has set an Oct. 26 premiere date for “Mockingbird Lane,” a Halloween special that was at one time meant to be a TV series reboot of the ’60s sitcom “The Munsters” from executive producers Bryan Singer (X-Men) and Bryan Fuller (“Pushing Daisies).

The show follows the Munsters as they purchase the Victorian mansion at 1313 Mockingbird Lane. Jerry O’Connell plays Herman, Portia de Rossi is his wife Lily, Eddie Izzard is Grandpa, Mason Cook is Eddie and Charity Wakefield is “homely” cousin Marilyn.

According to THR, the two Bryans didn’t see eye-to-eye on the visual style of the series pilot, which was written by Fuller and directed by Singer. Fuller and NBC executives also had some creative differences they couldn’t get over and most likely wouldn’t have due to Fuller’s commitment to NBC’s “Hannibal” series.
