Pushing Daisies?

Did anyone watch this quirky show last night? We kind of liked it but I am not sure if it is a concept that would work long term. Then again I was an ED fan and that was a quirky one concept show.

Yup, I watched it and just don't "get it"....just a bit too "odd" for me. But perhaps it will grow on me like "Office" did!
I watched it and loved it.. my Tuesday nights are complete again... (still mourning the loss of Gilmore Girls).

Kind of reminded me a little of Dead Like Me... quirky!!!!
I meant to watch but was busy brushing out Genevieve and forgot about it. Wonder if I can watch online? :? What's the premise?

There is a trailer at the bottom of this link.
Thanks, Brenda. It looks interesting. I'll have to remember to catch it next week.
I really liked it. Very sweet. Almost like the Coen Brothers made it. Very wonderful art direction too.

I thought the same thing, and I don't even have your trained eye! 8)

C'mon Judi!! :oops: :D
I watched it the other night and really liked it, too. It had a very Tim Burton meets Dr. Suess feel to it.

I watched it last night and this is exactly how I would've described it. It is a little off center, but that is it's charm. I liked it.

Last night was my first viewing and I think it's great. My husband arrived about 30 minutes in and asked if Tim Burton was involved.

When Olive broke into song, I thought, OK, here's the schmaltz, downhill from here. But not so, it turned into a fabulous scene. :lol:

I agree. I was cracking up at her sending the customers away and then the floor guy not knowing she is singing.

I also like the private detective guy - he makes me laugh. I have only seen him do serious roles before like on Boston Public and The Nine but he is very funny on this even though his delivery is very deadpan.
nope, still think it's wierd 8)
I laughed out loud when the environmentally conscious dandelion car guy chases them down the street in his own personal Hummer! Cracked me up. :yay:

That's the charm for me. I'm not a TV watcher. The show has to have "something" to keep my attention. :?

In fact I was going to start a new topic called TV-AADD. I try to watch all the new shows, but 3 weeks into the season, I'm down to 3-4 shows that I really want to see.

I'm chronically attention deficit with reality shows. I can clean the kitchen, catch up on email, and start a Sudoku while watching something like Survivor.

I can't watch American Idol. Ryan Seacrest (sp?) can fill more empty air time with yadda, yadda, yadda, than anybody I've experienced.

Yes we were cracking up as well.
I find myself catching up on episodes on the internet, rather than watching them the night they're on. :roll:

Anyway, I like this show! :lol: It's different, not the same old, same old. Can't figure out why the narrator has to have an accent, though.
Is anyone still watching this show? Did you see the one last week where they did the spoof on Designer Dogs?
Yes Tammy, Tim and I are still watching.

I thought the designer dog was very clever and then the whole cloning thing on top of it. Very funny.

We get the biggest kick out of the private detective though - the way he deadpans his lines.
Yeah, that cloning the dead dog from his ashes thing was clever. I like the detective, too. I'm still entranced by the artistic flair of the show, particularly the use of color.
I also like the idea of him keeping his dog alive forever.

The bringing people back to life long enough to question them scenes are usually pretty entertaining too.
