Anyone out there who still misses the hell out of this show?


I was surfing the internets when I found this list: http://thecelebritycafe.com/feature/2012/11/top-10-cancelled-tv-shows-videos of the top 10 cancelled TV shows and I saw Pushing Daisies was number 2!!
This was such a lovely show, such a comical cast, vibrant colors and wardrobes, definitely one of my favorites of all time.
Never should have been cancelled!

I do! This and Wonderfalls... killed me

Finally watching the season 2 episodes I missed.

Every time my wife and I try to find a new show to watch, I think back to PD. I should be watching the season 6 finale right now. So sad!

Revenge is...underrated, that felt awesome.

:(
I have new shows, but nothing like this. It was funny, witty, intriguing without the double dose of lame duck and cheese factor we are drowning in now. I moved on to action shows...

I've been watching the reruns on Chiller TV and I'd forgotten how much I LOVED this show and miss it. I was livid when it got cancelled. The execs blamed the writers' strike at the time but I think they were just looking for an excuse to get rid of a show they didn't understand. Gods forbid any TV exec would have any imagination! I would totally contribute if they tried a Kickstarter campaign. I just wish they would try to wrap it up instead of leaving its fans in limbo. Hell, I'd settle for a TV movie or mini-series!

Just remember it thinking on great different shows canceled 😥

Yes so bad. I just got it on Blu-ray - to show my boyfriend.

reply

I still miss this. Everytime I think of my what is my favorite show and shows that has quality, nothing beats PD. I am still wishing that they will continue this, or at least a movie.

reply

Yes, I miss this show terribly. The sad thing is, I'm 100% sure if not for the 2007-2008 writer's strike it would have lasted several seasons. But sadly the first season (which had been given a full 22 episode order) only lasted a few episodes because of the strike. And by the time the second season aired it never regained the momentum it once had (I blame ABC for how little advertising they did during the second season.)

In a perfect world, I would be picked up again and last for many seasons.

My favorite. And I watch just about everything.

I honestly didn't even know the show existed. I had 3 young boys at the time and the t.v. was tuned to Nicktoons or the Disney channel all of the time. It was when I was reading about Hannibal and Bryan Fuller that I first heard of Pushing Daisies. Chiller ran the first eight episodes one day and I Recorded them all. Yesterday and today I finaaly watched them all and FELL IN LOVE!! It was unique and funny, quirky. LOVED the imagery and the homages to Hitchcock. Love the old look and feel that kept me wondering in what era this was supposed to be taking place.. Surreal, beautiful, fun. Should still be on. Network execs are idiots.

It was a freaking tragedy that this was cancelled. Such a wonderful, unique and risky show. Hilarious, well-acted, quirky. FFS. I miss this so much.

reply

I certainly miss the hell out of it. I give the series a watch every once in a while. Looks great on blu.

reply

I do 😢😪😥

I miss this show terribly. I was really involved in the original (quite primitive) on - line chat community that ABC hosted on the ABC website. I continue to follow the careers of Lee, Anna, Kristin ... everybody. ...sighhhhh...

reply

I don't miss it but I rather wish they had let it go on a couple more years and have a proper ending. I am Glad Fuller went to the trouble of giving it AN ending but still it needed more time.

reply

I feel so awful that this wonderful show is no longer on! And there is nothing that special on television anymore. That's it. Only trash get's to stay forever and a day on tv these days. Welcome to Walmart TV. Nothing but The Bachelor and Shark Tanks.

reply

Yes, I miss this show. I actually never got to see the last 3 episodes, so I still don't know how it ended.

I’ve always felt it was a show out of its time. FANTASTIC, don’t get me wrong, but would have done better a year or so later than it first aired. It is quirky and the shows that were on at that time weren’t so much like that. Chuck and Heroes come to mind. It was the only one of its kind and people just weren’t ready for it.

Yes I miss the heck out of this show......
