The Facts (*choke*) Are These:
ABC Gives The Producers Of
PUSHING DAISIES, ELI STONE
& DIRTY SEXY The Bad News ...

I am – Hercules!!


ABC has elected not to order more episodes for sophomore series “Pushing Daisies,” “Eli Stone” and “Dirty Sexy Money.” "Stone" and "Dirty" will cease production after 13 second-season installments. "Daisies" finished shooting its 13th and final episode last week.

Producers of all three shows were informed this afternoon.

All three just hit or matched personal ratings lows.

The network is not using the word “cancelled” for any of the shows, but does not currently anticipate a pick-up down the road.

Find all of James Hibberd’s Hollywood Reporter story on the matter here.
