Pushing Daisies: Top 10 Oddities

by LiRa

…or things that one can find only on Pushing Daisies. In random order:

dandy.jpgDandy Lion SX. It looks more like a toy than a real transportation, with it’s lime green color and odd design structure. What’s more odd about it? The car of the future is powered by Dandy Lion extracts, prompting Chuck to exclaim, “That’s so neat!” I think so, too.

Dandy Lion promo girls. While I find their get-up bizarrely cute, I was more impressed with their routine, you know, that dancing and shaking bit they have to do. It was entertaining to watch.

Alfredo Aldarisio, the traveling salesman. “You’re not wrong about the oxygen leaving the room, the planet is losing atmosphere it’s affecting gravity. Volumes aren’t what they use to be.” Someone that paranoid is an oddity.

The Unorthodox Urban Honey Pioneers. Beekeeping within city limits is highly illegal, as Chuck tells Ned but the rooftop is Chuck’s special place which Ned has offered to her. It’s an odd present to give someone, but it’s a thoughtful gesture that Chuck embraces.

Untitled_2.jpgPidge, the pigeon with fake embellished wings. In the real world I would wonder how they are able to make the injured bird fly again. But Pushing Daisies is a different world on its own. I shouldn’t be surprised if I see a fish talking.

Bubblegum. The perfect dog breed, a super-powered cloned dog, a mixture of different kinds of breeds: Border Collie, Labrador Retriever, Jack Russel Terrier and Poodle — smart loyal, athletic and hypoallergenic.

Scratch & Sniff Book. The self-help guide book that encourages3.jpg people to become more attuned to the power of smell. It’s got a special brand of smell if you scratch a surface.

The burnt corpse of Anita. She wasn’t reduce to ashes even if her corpse was burnt ! It’s the weirdest dead body I’ve seen on TV.

Olive’s 4th of July costume. It’s a cute costume, but oh so tempestuously sexy! An odd mix. But I know some guys really loved it. Haha.

Sheila, Burly Bruce’s wooden girlfriend. Life-size and plastic, Bruce is delusional, believing his girlfriend is human. It’s odd how someone is able to carry through life with that idea.

An oddity bonus, something I just read on IMDb. Those wondering why Digby remains the same after Ned is all grown up can now stop wondering. Digby is allegedly immortal and so is Chuck:

The people Ned has brought back from the dead are immortal. We see this in Digby, who, 20 years following being hit by a truck, is still as youthful as he was when he was 3, the age he was when he got hit. Bryan Fuller has further confirmed this to be the case in interviews. Therefore, Chuck won’t age or die of natural causes. Whether or not she (and Digby) can be killed by violent means (i.e., hit again by a truck) has yet to be clarified, but we do know they can be injured - Chuck twisted her ankle running from Mamma Jacobs in “Girth”, which may imply that they can be killed, they just won’t die on their own.

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.
