Pushing Daisies will air again Friday night. I planned to watch it then, 'cause I wanted to watch Kid Nation last night.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I don't think Vonnie will care if you have a flag. IJS.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Felicity:Sydney Bristow::Seth Cohen:Chuck Bartowski

No! Sydney's way niftier than that.

Then again, I haven't seen the second ep. Comes with being unmotivated by having seen the first.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Nifty has nothing to do with it. It's a creator's favored character being repurposed for a spy show.

I found out that Pushing Daisies is streaming at the ABC website, so if you've been intrigued by the description here, you could give it a couple minutes right now!

I just watched the first five minutes, and I think I'm in love. Oh dear. And yes, very Tim Burton. Did Danny Elfman do the music? It sure sounds like it.

To me it has to do with nifty, because I don't see Chuck as a) like Seth or b) like a potential favourite. But mostly I think Chuck is a step down for/from Seth in a way that Sydney wasn't for Felicity.

I think if you give it five minutes you'll want to see the rest (if you're not bon bon, anyway.)

I might give it another chance with my full attention, since I haven't heard a bad thing about it.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I'm so deep in grading hell I haven't been able to watch tv all week. It's cruel I tell you! No Heroes, no Eureka, no Bionic Woman or DirtySexyMoney, no Pushing Daisies. Thank goodness for tivo is all I can say.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I might give it another chance with my full attention, since I haven't heard a bad thing about it.

It's certainly a reasonable point of view, though. Pushing Daisies definitely lays it on thickly.
