5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Television Shows, Ever! (a tragic casualty of the writer's strike), January 3, 2012
This review is from: Pushing Daisies Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video)
Our family loves this show! We watched every week until it was tragically removed from the line-up after falling victim to the writer's strike. The show had just begun when all of that took place and with all of the interruptions from the strike, and multiple changes in airing schedules, it didn't stand a chance at making it off the ground. If the network had given it one consistent season after the strike ended it would probably still be on air. It is vivid, fun, clever, CLEAN and delightful with comical surprises at every turn. The narrating is hilarious! The cast is superb and the lovely and talented Kristin Chenoweth even treats viewers to spontaneous musical performances from time to time. We truly miss it!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Show Ever, December 25, 2011
This review is from: Pushing Daisies Season 1 (Amazon Instant Video)
I am so upset this show was cancelled after only 2 seasons :( It is my favorite television show ever! It's visual effects are phenomenal and vivid. The basis of the story is a little weird, but I love how quirky the entire show is. The characters are lovely. This show is incomparable to anything else.
