Brendan Moran (born July 16, 1976 in Elmhurst, Illinois) is an American television personality best known for his work as a co-host and field reporter on the G4 television program "Attack of the Show!" (formerly "The Screen Savers"). Moran previously worked as a producer for TechTV on "TechLive" and "Fresh Gear".

Moran attended the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

On "Attack of the Show!", Moran was best known for his field reports on trivial, and often, cult-like conventions, such as the "Hard liquor and Porn Festival", although he also covered more serious technology events. He was often portrayed as a pathetic alcoholic, although he also had a recurring James Bond-like tech review segment (as "Agent Triple O") and had his own "Shaft"-like theme song about his prowess with the ladies ("Ladies love the man, but they just don't understand, he's Brendan Moran...") His Chicago-esque "sooooo"'s and his perpetual gum-chewing were often affectionately imitated by the show's other hosts, much to Moran's seeming annoyance. He also did sketches called "Brendan Moran's Book Club", in which he hosted a bookclub composed of women who were too busy gossiping to discuss the tech and sci-fi books Moran attempted to introduce, much to his annoyance. In the final segment, it was revealed that the women were just waiting for Moran to leave so they could discuss the books, very much to his annoyance.

Beginning in October 2007, Moran became co-host of "Your Green Life", a half-hour, magazine show about sustainable living airing on the San Francisco station YourTV20. He also hosts a weekly show on YourTV20 called "Retro Night."
