This week, I read an article about how Pushing Daisies is in trouble because the ratings aren’t up to par. It’s sad to hear that when it’s one of the best and most innovative shows on TV. Pushing Daisies once again aired a great episode this week and if you’re not watching this show, you need to start.
This week, a mysterious man named Dwight comes into the Pie Hole claiming to be friend of Ned’s father from long ago. Ned’s animosity towards ... Read More

Emerson had been the only person up until this episode who’d never gotten a flashback sequence on his childhood. We finally got one with this episode. The facts are that Emerson grew up being a child gumshoe with his mother who was also a detective. The most revealing thing to come out of the flashback was perhaps the fact that Emerson’s mother was white. While on any other show this revelation would be on your mind maybe the whole episode, but Pushing ... Read More

“Bad Habits” was a much needed episode this week. It tied everything together and progressed the story along very well. All the main characters were in one place and it made this episode one of the best of the season.
We’re so used to flashback scenes at the beginning of each episode, it was a welcome surprise to have this one be about Olive, with it somewhat telling us that this episode was more about Olive than anyone else.
When looking back at this ... Read More

It's the second episode of the season and Pushing Daisies seems to be treading along nicely. We got a decent episode that had a good mystery to go along with. The idea of this episode focused on new beginnings for everyone and it worked out well in this episode; maybe not as well as we would have liked, but it still made for watchable television.
This week Emerson takes the case of a missing girl, the mother of the girl was an interesting ... Read More

Pushing Daisies was one of the best new shows of last season, but sadly, it like many other shows was affected by the writer’s strike and its season was forced to be cut short. Luckily ABC decided to renew Pushing Daisies, but with the interruption of a writer’s strike, I wondered whether Pushing Daisies would still have the same magic that it had last season.
Fortunately it does. I’m happy to announce that Pushing Daisies is back with all the magic and all ... Read More

It's hard not to like Pushing Daisies. Everything about it screams unique and different and it feels like we're watching some kind of fairy tail unfold in front of our eyes each and every week. The fairy tale continues this week with a rather interesting storyline that not only works but ends up taking us back to the funeral home where it all started.
Ned hasn't told Chuck yet that the reason why people he brings back to live can only stay that ... Read More

Every season there’s that one show that makes you look at TV a bit differently.
