Because the series, although winning several Emmy awards, was cancelled by ABC they had to rush to tie up some (but not all) loose ends and give the viewers at least some closure on some story lines. I won't spoil here, but they are definintely worth watching - the first of them includes guest appearances by George Segal and Richard Benjamin. Chi McBride (Emerson Cod) was there, as was Ellen Greene (one of the Darling sisters.) There was no panel discussion, because each episode was just short of and hour, so it was a long afternoon just for screening -- but totally worth it. Ellen Greene looked amazing - I looked her up and she is 57 years old - but you would never know it. As she walked down the aisle with some of the other folks who were throwing tee shirts to the crowd, I was sitting on the aisle and told her how fabulous she looked. She took my hand in two of her hands and said "Oh Thank you!!!" It was very sweet. cstephens - were you there? I confess, it has been so long since we have seen you at anything, I don't know that I would recognize you anymore, so next time you are at one of these, do say hi. We promise not to bother you - we just want to say hi.
Originally Posted By Disneyland55 Well dang, I just took Pushing Daisies off of my TIVO Season pass list (so it will not auto record when it plays). And since it will not be on in the next couple weeks I cannot add it back to in. Will you please post when you know the dates that it will air if you think of it? I'd really like to finish watching the series.

Originally Posted By Kala Oh thanks for the update I kept wondering when we would see them. I was so dissappointed that this series was canceled it was one of the truly entertaining new series out there. I hope it sees a revival like some do, rare, but it may happen. There are too many reality shows out there that there isn't much on TV that I watch anymore.
