Pushing Daisies: Get Ready to Swoon!


If you’re a frequent reader or even a remotely vigilant follower of television, you’ve heard about Pushing Daisies (ABC; 8PM). You’ve probably also heard that it’s the most amazing show of the new season. Well, after what seemed like an endless wait, it finally sees its premiere tonight.

The story of a man with the power to bring people back to life with a single touch (there are a few interesting conditions to that gift), Pushing Daisies is one part crime comedy, one part childlike romance and one part character study of the confused loner we’re all capable of being. You can read my full review of the first episode here, and for all things related to the show, check out The Pie Maker.

Pushing Daisies is not for everyone (people who hate puppies, sunshine and smiling or those with a low tolerance for whimsy and charm will probably be better off watching Deal or No Deal). But if you consider yourself a fan of television, film or just being happy, I urge you to give it a go. It’s the kind of show that only shows up once in a great while, and, unfortunately, doesn’t often get to stick around as long as it deserves. Let’s see if we can avoid that.

Pushing Daisies airs Wednesdays at 8pm on ABC
