Who's Watching Pushing Daisies? (Television)

[Cleverboy]

I hear ITV got 8 episodes of Pushing Daisies's 9 pre-strike episodes squeezed into their schedule in the UK. People are complaining that they're missing out on episode #2, which the station says doesn't advance the story. I disagree, but what can ya say... something ain't nothing! I can't imagine Jim Dale's excellent narrating for the show NOT going over will in Britain.

The scene with Olive singing "Hopelessly devoted" is still completely awesome. I felt my heart swell. Good job! Scrolling through this thread, I got to re-enjoy the photos I posted. I forgot how much she "underplays" her looks in the series.

I watched one episode and it just didn't grab me.

You didn't just love that YouTube clip? Ah, well... they gave it a try. I guess I'm just a softie.

Hm, I just watched it, and it is entertaining. But the narrator, I think, is just too much to create the space for me to believe the characters. It all seems kind of affected.
