Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

Natter 54: Right here, dammit.  

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm sure there'll be some tonal adjustments on the show after the pie-let.

C'mon though! His shop is called The Pie Hole. Plus I love Ellen Greene, and Swoozie looks awesome with an eyepatch and Kristen looks cool being super tiny. (And I think her hair is bobbed after the first episode.)

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I must be pretty tired (oh I know I am with the chronic insomnia) but I'm sitting here thinking, " Pushing Daisies is just like Magic Realism, but without any identifiable supernatural element..." and then remembered, oh yes: bringing things back from the dead. Yeah, I guess that qualifies.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

She's so tiny compared to Lee Pace that my husband thought it was a special effect at first.

Punishingly Intricate

Man, my band had the idea to open a pie shop/performance space called the Pie Hole YEARS ago. We even wrote a song about it. Called Pie Hole. (Down at the Pie Hole, you can get yourself some pie)

Oh show!

That's it. 15 minutes in and I'm hooked.

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

She hasn't even gotten to Swoozie Kurtz yet.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I think KC's entrance into his apt outdid the walk&talk with Allison Janney.

Yeah, the Aunts are the dottiest gothiest part.

I think the Aunts have the house I want.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Yeah, and there is an edge underneath the preciousness. Wizard of Oz with TEETH.

I see some small glimpses in the pilot, but the comic book shows the hidden fangs. I doubt the show will ever go quite that EC comics, but I can't believe after the on-line comic book that there won't be a horror element in the show. The promotion for next week hints pretty strongly at that too.

Umm -- that is general enough not be spoilery, I presume.
