Pushing Daisies Round Up Nov 12

by LiRa

pdaisies.jpgStrike Updates: A week without Pushing Daisies and I’m already feeling the loss. With the strike looming, the loss could translate to complete devastation. It’s not that I am being overly dramatic. But I’ve been looking forward to this show since July and learning that the strike could possibly affect its longevity? It saddens me.

TV Guide recently talked to show runner Bryan Fuller and confirms that should the strike extend for months, the final episode to be tentatively shown in January (Episode 9), would serve as the season finale.

“As we were scrambling to rewrite [Episode 9],” he reveals, “we added several elements that will put many balls into the air and hopefully encourage the audience to come back and see how they land.”

So what would have been 22 episodes will just be down to that — nine short ones. And a possibly a two-disc DVD set in the future?

The show is currently still in production and there are still no word of it shutting down yet. In the meantime, late this week, ABC Network has sent all striking writers a memo reminding them to go back to work.

ned.jpg People’s Choice Awards: On the brighter side of things, People’s Choice Awards lists Pushing Daisies as one of the nominees under the category Favorite New TV Drama, going against: Big Shots; Bionic Woman; Cane; Dirty Sexy Money; Gossip Girl; Journeyman; K-Ville; Life; Life Is Wild; Moonlight; Private Practice; Women’s Murder Club. But wasn’t this show categorized as a Comedy early this season? Anyhow, this piece of news is still something to smile about. Vote for your choice here.

Young Ned and Chuck: Seen at the Bee Movie premiere are actors Sammi Hanratty and Field Cate (photo is from WireImage). You can also watch these two kids at the TDink Fashion Magazine walk-off. The young boy is quite an articulate one and the girl is just adorable.

About Pushing Daisies

As its teasers say, Pushing Daisies is "nothing like you've seen on television". Besides being visually stimulating and audibly captivating, the story behind this whimsical TV series from ABC, is one that seems to jump out pages of a fairy tale. Created by Bryan Fuller, Pushing Daisies is hailed by critics as a commendable risk that may actually pay off. It has romance, tragedy, comedy, mystery and of course, lest we forget, pies…lots and lots of it.
