Lately we have been re-watching the tv show "Pushing Daisies" which ran from 2007-2009. It was and probably still is one of our favorite shows of all time. Why it was cancelled, is beyond us. If you haven't seen it, rent it, or download it (not that we support this, but it is often hard to find!)
The visual aesthetic of this show was truly amazing! The costumes, the sets, everything was so pleasing to the eye! On top of that it was funny and super sweet. What more could you ask for?
Meet Ned! Such a cutie pie (ha no pun intended!). He posseses the gift of being able to bring people back to life momentarily, just by touching them. The person can only stay alive for 60 seconds, or else someone else in the vicinity will die in their place once the 60 seconds pass, and a second touch leaves them dead again, forever. Did we mention he's super adorable and he owns a pie shop called "The Pie Hole", as in shut your.
This is Chuck, Ned's childhood sweetheart who he can't touch. You have to watch to understand why!
Meet Olive (nice name!), she works in the pie shop.
These are Chuck's aunts, also known as the "Darling Mermaid Darlings".
On the left is the cycnical Emerson Cod, a private investigator that solves murders with Ned & Chuck!
Chuck has the most amazing wardrobe on the show!
Here's a prime example: The most beautiful city morgue in the whole wide world!
And of course, there are the pies!
The fridge is the most dreamy fridge we've ever seen!
I love the fact that Ned installed a divider in his car so that they wouldn't touch! He also put in a big glove so they could hold hands through the divider-cute!
This ambulance is INSANE!
So is this house!
The amazing "cheese box".
We hope you watch it and love it as much as we do! We would tell you more about it, and it may sound kind of crazy, but trust us, you will love it!
All photos were taken from screenshots as we re-watched the show!
I was so sad when this wasn't continued too! :(

I adored this show. I can't believe it was canceled after such a short run!
ReplyDeleteI wish I owned Chuck's wardrobe, she is my fashion icon!

Discovered this show last year and am still lamenting it's cancellation to anyone who will listen. Love It SO much!!
ReplyDeleteI really, really need to check this out. Those stills look amazing!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Pushing Daisies. I've got the DVDs and have watched it over and over.
ReplyDeleteabsolutely loved this show. Hubbie has a 'thing' for Anna Friel (aka Chuck) too haha
ReplyDeletei definitely have this show on my list of things to watch. but after seeing how gorgeous the styling was, i may have to push it to the front of the queue! the use of color is amazing. these costumes and sets are so whimsical and fun, totally matches the silliness of the show's premise.

i love that show so much. in my dream world they would decide to bring it back.
ReplyDeleteI've always thought about getting this on DVD because I love Lee Pace (check out "The Fall" if you haven't already - since you love lush visuals you will go crazy over this film), and this post has totally convinced me I must do it!
ReplyDeleteGreat shoe! So fun. xo, rv

Man, oh man, do I miss this show or what?! It's still beyond me that it got cancelled as well! Gosh I wish they would just go back to good ol' TV shows instead of cruddy ones.
ReplyDeleteyes! fellow lovers of Pushing Daisies! My friends and I watched that show religiously. We were heartbroken when it was canceled. The colors and sets and outfits are Incredible! your blog never fails to bring a smile to my face and I love seeing what you have to say each post :)

I miss the show so much!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat show, it was a breath of fresh air when all the networks were putting out crap reality shows. This had style, writing and a interesting premiss.
ReplyDeleteI adore this show for all the reasons you mentioned. But I have to say one of my favorite moments was when Emerson was knitting a gun holder. Any movie or show that has someone knitting brings a smile to my face!
ReplyDeleteWhy in the world did they cancel this!! It is my favorite! Sigh, I miss this show..

I was so sad when they canceled this. We had watched all of it and it was such a cute show.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I watched every single episode when it aired, and I couldn't believe when I found out they had canceled this show! There was a part of me that kind of knew it wouldn't last long, though, since it was too quirky to appeal to the "visually illiterate" masses :( Such a shame!
