Pushing Daisies Season 1-2 General Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

It's finally here!

This has to be my favorite show. Sorry House, but I'm not feeling any medical drama from last season. Two of my favorite things...together! I'll probably be contributing here weekly if not daily like my other favorite shows. So...if you haven't already seen this, you have to start NOW (please)!

Here is where you can share thoughts on any episode in season one, so post away! Also, it may be helpful if you put in the subject what episode you're talking about. Thanks!

I won't give away spoilers, but the 2nd episode is my all-time favorite (of course, there are only 9 episodes so far) mainly because of the quirky plot line. For some reason, the writing has been decreasing, ever so slightly, from the 2nd episode to the 9th episode. The details weren't as detailed in the 8th, as far as I can remember. I also love how, in the first few episodes, that Olive observes no physical contact between Ned and Chuck and Digby. Her hair changes in episode 2! It'll be much "in line" with the rest of the show. Keep watching and I'll have the next quiz up in 2 days!

"Pigeon"

Yes! I can now pour my feelings out on this episode...I haven't been able to do this lately due to the limited time I have. Ok... This was the episode where Pidge does a great guest appearance when he smacks into one of The Pie Hole's windows. Hopefully, I have a feeling he will be back as Olive's favorite pet...she seems to like him...more than Digby? Hmmm...we'll have to wait and see. The aunts are here again and are starting to become true people key to this story. Vivian cracks me up so much... I'm not sure if it's the way the actress talks or she is trying to mold a specific voice for the character, but Vivian's voice is so timid...and hilarious. Windmills were also key to the story as well. Part of this shows quirkiness comes from the topics discussed...so far we've had smiley face "death bags", cars running on dandelions and now windmills. The writing back and forth with Lefty and Elsita was nice because it gives us a taste of "old school" romance ...not sure how I got that from writing letters back and forth, but it works. lol...This is hard trying to remember key points of the story as I saw the episode a couple weeks ago when I wrote the quiz... I'll stop this rambling and I'll add on to what you guys (or gals) have to say.

Frescorts - Episode 4

Great episode...I've been waiting for a really good episode to come along. Several new characters appeared in this one...Emerson's mother, Randy Mann, or Ned's new friend... The writers kept turning the wheel with plot developments...Olive has moved in with Chuck, Emerson's secret has been revealed to his mother and Randy Mann will be a recurring role for at least a couple more episodes. My Best Friend, Inc. is this season's Dandelion Car Corp. The stuffed animals was definitely a little freaky, but I was laughing out loud when I saw the rat wedding. A great improvement from the past three probably because there was no nunnery. Although it was fun, I was getting a little tired of being away from the Pie Hole. There's so much to tell on this episode that I'll wait until others respond because I can't remember all of it. 9.3/10 on TV.com!

I swear they did that scene before...it was a little odd just because it is out of order with the rest of the show.

David Arquette was great and is a great addition for at least a couple episodes. I remember last year that Molly Shannon was signed on for a few but then moved on to Kath & Kim. She was really good in the one episode she did.

Next week's episode is something about a Chinese family. I'm sure fortune cookies will be mentioned in the episode.
