I rewatch this so regularly. I absolutely adore Pushing Daisies and the whimsy that came with that era of TV.

Pushing Daisies, Ugly Betty, Desperate Housewives… All seemed to have this vibe that’s missing from TV today.

A recent show that sort of hits this vibe, women who kill. Particularly s1

Agree!! I binged it a few weeks back and the story and the style was just amazing.

Lee Pace is always good.

Halt and Catch Fire for a good time.

He’s also good as Day in Foundation

That show was fantastic. Almost everything Bryan Fuller has run is so good. Gone too soon.

When I realized that He and Ronin (Guardians of the galaxy) where the same actor it blew my mind.

I’ve been hoping that Netflix or some other streaming service will revive this show.

One of my favorite ever shows! Lee Pace and Anna Friel wee great, but it was Chi McBride who stole the show with every scene. It's a tragedy it was killed so soon.

Kristin Chenoweth is also really, really great. I love the episodes where she gets to sing.
