Pushing Daisies: Pie-lette Quotes
So, tell me… the show is as delightful as they say it would be, right?
Let’s re-live some of the lines and dialogues from the very first episode of Pushing Daisies and kick off this site’s Quotable Quotes Section. If you have a favorite line yourself, chime in!
Ned: I asked you not to use the word zombie. It’s disrespectful, stumbling around squaking for brains, that’s not how they do. An undead. Nobody wants to be un-anything.
Emerson: Are you comfortable with “living dead”?
Olive: I used to think masturbation meant chewing your food. I don’t think that anymore. (This is my favorite!)
Olive: How was your convention?
Ned: Conventional. How’s Digby?
Olive: Erotic. He’s a very needy dog.
Chuck: Thanks for calling me Chuck. No one has called me Chuck since you.
Ned: When I used to live next door, I had a cr—- you were my first kiss.
Chuck: You were my first kiss too. You want to be my last kiss? Is that weird?
Ned: That’s not weird. That’s magical.
Ned: It’s kind of a random proximity thing.
Emerson: Bitch, I was in proximity!
Olive: Doesn’t she look like that dead girl?
Emerson: She looks exactly like that dead girl.
Olive: You should take that as a compliment, because she was pretty.
Chuck: So I can’t even hug, what if you need a hug? A hug can turn your day around
Ned: I’m not a fan of hugs
Chuck: Then you haven’t been hugged properly. It’s like an emotional heimleich.
Ned: That’s fine for someone else to do if I’m choking on other than emotion
Chuck: So a kiss is out of the questions?
Chuck: Three way split? 30-30-40? It’s only fair I get more, I did die for it.
Ned: You’re supposed to be dead. This is pushing your luck.
Chuck: Yeah, well, luck pushed me first.

I totally love Pushing Daisies. This is my favorite new show of the season, and makes me feel a lot better since the loss of Studio 60!!! I think my favorite aspect is the narrator… he is fantastic and funny, and I hope they never let that aspect go!!!
The writing is witty and intelligent, the cast is spectacular, and the color scheme and music bring the entire thing together. It’s like some semi-hallucinogenic dream that you never want to wake up from…
I do want to correct one thing though … Olive responds “Neurotic” when Ned asks how Digby is. I don’t even want to know how she would know the poor golden retriever would be “Erotic…” heehee…
I think my favorite touch is Ned’s “petting device” he has for Digby… That was both creative and just plain cute…

Hi Cindy! “Neurotic” does make more sense. Thanks!
And I need to clean my ears!

There’s been a mini-debate about this on the TWoP boards, and it was decided that Ned said, “That’s not weird. It’s symmetrical.” when Chuck asked him to be her last kiss. I think the subtitles actually said “magical” instead of “symmetrical,” but it just seems more in-character and most of us /heard/ “symmetrical.” Just a thought.
