…and life again?

I haven’t seen this anywhere else yet in Daisy-land, so I’m going to post it here and hope it’s not, well, false hope…

According to this article in the Dallas News, which appeared earlier TODAY (that would be Wednesday, the 26th of November, 2008—well after the show was officially marked “canceled”), Beth Grant (a character actress best known to Fuller-ites as Mary Ann Marie Beetle from Wonderfalls) apparently attended a Black Tie Dinner event two days after that announcement had been made and mentioned that she’d just gotten off the phone with Bryan Fuller, who said the series was not, in fact, canceled.

It’s a bit like telephone, I know. And the call might have dropped out in places, so we’re only hearing what we want to. But it can’t hurt to try to drum up as much support for the remaining episodes that they’ve got left to air this season, can it? Especially with the Move Pushing Daisies campaign now in full swing. If enough viewers show that there IS good reason for Warner Brothers to shop this show around, maybe we can make it happen. It’s worked for quite a few other shows, so it’s not like it’s without precedent.

If you’re new to Pushing Daisies and are considering tentatively dipping your toe in the pond and tuning in tonight, please watch this handy promo video that ABC put together before the start of season two. It’ll catch you up on MOST of what’s happened…although quite a lot has happened already in the six episodes since season two started. Context may be able to help you while you watch tonight…as long as you watch this first. And if you have any questions about what you’ve missed between this video and tonight’s episode, I’ll be happy to answer them!
