!!Tremendously excited!! by buffywrestling	Dec 3rd, 2008 03:36:30 PM
I'd squee but I'm at work. Accountants shouldn't squee...or so they tell me.
Everytime a new episode comes on.. by billypilgrimisunstuck	Dec 3rd, 2008 03:39:11 PM
..it makes me more sad to know that this is ending. =(
Giving up. by OBSD	Dec 3rd, 2008 03:41:50 PM
I'm stopping DVRing the show now. Or two weeks ago, to be precise. The show is cancelled, correct? And they cancelled it in the middle of a two-parter with no hope of the second part actually being filmed, correct? There's no reason to go on with this show then. If I'm driving a car and I see a bridge collapse ahead of me, why would I keep driving? In the hopes that Jeebus will build the bridge up in the span of a few seconds? No. I'm stopping this car and walking home. This season of television has been dissapointing in a way that hasn't been matched in years. The only new show that's remotely watchable is Fringe and there is no returning show that hasn't been either cancelled (pushing daisies) or that hasn't let me down (heroes). I'm going to pet the tv to bed for a while. Wake me up when Lost starts.
I thought this show was cancelled, already. by StarWarsRedux	Dec 3rd, 2008 03:49:42 PM
And yet there's still no talkbacks for a couple of shows that actually ARE on the air.
I don't understand the appeal by OB1KNBI	Dec 3rd, 2008 03:57:26 PM
of this show, but I can appreciate the loyal following for it. I just wish I "get" said appeal. I watched the first 4 episodes of season 1, and had to call it quits. It seemed way to quirky for it's own good, and I just couldn't watch it anymore.
Here's an idea. by Zarles	Dec 3rd, 2008 04:07:26 PM
How about all you dicks who 'don't see the appeal' of this show stay the fuck outta the talkbacks? It's bad enough that the fans have to deal with its cancellation without having to hear all the needless attention-grabbing from all you shitheels.
ABC, please helpe me. by DarthCorleone	Dec 3rd, 2008 04:17:10 PM
Why don't you keep the whole season archived for streaming on your website? Only the most recent two episodes are on there. I fell a few behind, and now I can't catch up. It's extremely frustrating.
OBSD by oisin5199	Dec 3rd, 2008 04:38:53 PM
so I guess you probably dump a girl if you don't think you can score with her. I'm sorry but that attitude is ridiculous. There are more reasons to watch a show than just plot and story arc. Sure, I want to know what happens in the end, but this show provides me with pure joy just in the self-contained episodes that I'm watching it to the bitter end. Then getting the comic book if I have to. Or seeing the movie. I hope Fuller makes a huge Pushing Daisies/ Wonderfalls/ Dead Like Me film with great effects.
I thought accountants "squee" when the sheet balances by chromedome	Dec 3rd, 2008 04:42:21 PM
Buffywrestling--I guess you could Silently "Spot" while at work, eh? Are you feeling an Uncomfortable Fullness Of The Bladder?
oisin5199 by OBSD	Dec 3rd, 2008 05:18:44 PM
Bad analogy, man. For me, it's more like breaking up with a girl after you overhear her say "I'm gonna dump him." Why stick around? Sure, you might have one or two more nights of sex, but is it worth it? You know she's going to dump your ass, so you might as well leave now. There's no point to stick around anymore. As for a movie? After the financial success that was the last X-files movie and Serenity, if you think that any movie studio on the planet is going to pay for a movie based on a canceled show (or 3!) with a small cult following, you're nuts.
OBSD, I think your analogy is worse by br1947	Dec 3rd, 2008 05:36:21 PM
"Sure, you might have one or two more nights of sex, but is it worth it?" - Yes, yes it is. It ain't costing you anything else except a bit of time and you can have ALOT of fun on the way out. ;-)
br1947 by OBSD	Dec 3rd, 2008 06:07:35 PM
Well, that's you, I guess. Me? I can't really get into it when I'm about to get dumped. I'm weird that way.
It's all about the revenge... by br1947	Dec 3rd, 2008 06:23:31 PM
no reason to just take being dumped, have some fun on the way out and make it a damned good reason to be dumped! Just keep it legal :-)
True crossover by Don Lockwood	Dec 3rd, 2008 06:36:44 PM
I wish it was a true crossover and had Jaye in it. I mean, seriously, is Caroline Dhavernas doing anything? She could even comment on how she knows a guy who looks like Ned. Heck, she could mistake Ned for him. (sigh)
It's no Wonderfalls crossover. It's Jericho. by Johnny Smith	Dec 3rd, 2008 06:37:55 PM
Ned is resurrecting Gracie Leigh, killed by Mitchell Cafferty in 2006. :-D
Ha! Chromey you are so weird by buffywrestling	Dec 3rd, 2008 06:43:31 PM
I like that. Actually squee is shorthand retarded girl squealing not you know, pee pee. Although I guess you could do both...
buffywrestling: to quote Scar (Lion King)-- "you have NO idea... by chromedome	Dec 3rd, 2008 07:08:54 PM
yup, knew the Squee meaning--too vocal for work, hence the Silent Spotting alternative... looking forward to PD, squee-full or squee-less, matters not!
Ned's scowl by buffywrestling	Dec 3rd, 2008 07:13:53 PM
kinda ineffective while wearing that hat...
Mmmm. Smell that? by buffywrestling	Dec 3rd, 2008 07:20:44 PM
Fresh banter. Olive and Beetle are win.
The Colonel by magic34015	Dec 3rd, 2008 07:23:30 PM
He's not just dead, he's extra krispy. Classic.
maaan, I loved Wonderfalls.... by RockLobster800	Dec 3rd, 2008 07:27:30 PM
and the fat pat episode, along with the gretchen speck and the episodes with Jewel Staite are my personal faves. I dont particularly dig this show but I might give this ep a go....
Woah! by buffywrestling	Dec 3rd, 2008 07:30:54 PM
Did Chuck use Ned's power to kill Dixon? Or did Aunt Lily get there first? Maybe there is another dead body "hidin in the leaves". I've also been in the peck of cahoots. (I would really like one of those ice cream hats!)
OBSD, the season ends on a bit of a cliffhanger. by Lenny Nero	Dec 3rd, 2008 07:37:22 PM
But it's not the first part of a two-parter. That information is mistaken. Yes, the show is now canceled, but it's still airing its remaining glorious episodes. If you don't want the pleasure of watching such a good show, no matter what happens after, is entirely up to you, but please let us have our fun. It's a great show no matter what.
oh god I hate that Muffin Buffalo chick by JackDonkey	Dec 3rd, 2008 07:38:27 PM
Pick a lesser liked ... yeah it's a Jericho crossover
What's Great? Olive's boobs! by Alfie Boy	Dec 3rd, 2008 07:50:25 PM

yes, Alfie, yes they are by br1947	Dec 3rd, 2008 07:54:22 PM
especially in slo mo
Pushing Daisies and Wonderfalls have A LOT in common by 18to88	Dec 3rd, 2008 08:02:04 PM
1.) Herc liked them way too much. 2.) He was the only one.
gah by buffywrestling	Dec 3rd, 2008 08:04:19 PM
So happy for Olive one moment; crushed for Ned the next. What a great episode. Didn't disappoint at ALL. And considering how much I was looking forward to this ep and NOT to have that happen...L-Prime is right. People are morons. Next Week: "Aw Hell Naw!!"
hey Alfie, what's greater than great? by ashhole	Dec 3rd, 2008 08:15:46 PM
Olive mentioning feelings in her nether regions while wearing those tights! drizzle me in that tomato's Olive oil and call me bruschetta. mmmmmm...
"Sounds delicious. And filthy" by Big Jim	Dec 3rd, 2008 08:32:48 PM
My other favourite line: "Did the colonel spatter when you deep-fat fried him you sick son of a bitch?" Just to be nit-picky, that Youtube song above is Hazy Shade of Winter. The one in the show was Eternal Flame http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =Sxf6Xd75yUo
Cream, anyone? by Jumping Windows	Dec 3rd, 2008 09:33:33 PM
Looks like once again Herc's anus is Fuller Bryan's vienna sausage. Herc is so all over Bryan Fuller that it's becoming downright embarrassing for him. Is Fuller talented? Yes. Does he deserve continuous adoration and idolatry in a public forum? No. Herc, this is your article, and you can write what the fuck you want, but once you become predictable, e.g. Anything with Bryan Fuller = Herc Teste Rupture, then you're just a mindless tool with nothing to bring to the table. I will avoid all Wonderfalls and Pushing Daisies talkbacks from here on out because of your continuous gushing and self-humiliation. Enjoy the bland banter about everything Fuller in my appreciated absence, my wayward sheep.
18to88- Ummm wrong by Lovecraftfan	Dec 3rd, 2008 10:19:11 PM
Actually many people like it which is why it has a small and supportive fan base.
Naysayers, just because the shows fail in ratings... by Lenny Nero	Dec 3rd, 2008 10:51:17 PM
...does not speak to their quality. What, do you think FRIENDS is the be-all-end-all of American comedy? Feh.
Jumping Windows is right by buffywrestling	Dec 3rd, 2008 11:08:23 PM
I'm going to avoid all those regularly scheduled Wonderfalls talkbacks as well.
It's like this metaphor... by Napoleon Park	Dec 3rd, 2008 11:54:03 PM
Someone brings you the greatest pizza you've ever eaten. You love it. but now there are only four slices left and you know when you eat them they'll be gone and you'll be left wanting more. So you toss what's left and walk away rather than tease your tastebuds. That's exactly what not watching Pushing Daisies because it's going to end would be like. And it would be a waste of something good not to indulge in those final delicious slices or those last marvelous episodes.
It's a shame we won't get to see Olive's amazing cleavage anymor by Ka Dargo	Dec 4th, 2008 12:15:55 AM
Good Lord she has one of the best pair of booblies on the planet!!
Best one yet. by billypilgrimisunstuck	Dec 4th, 2008 01:46:29 AM
Maybe it's because I know it will be gone soon, but the show is really picking up. Olive singing Eternal Flame was so good. I feel like I can't convey how much this show makes me fucking smile because I get so depressed afterwards. UGH. Let's hope a movie to tie up some loose ends. PLEASE.
Yes, this was an excellent episode. by AnnoyYou	Dec 4th, 2008 02:48:46 AM
Petrie seems as if he's back to form (that is, his Buffy glory days). Actually, I love the Olive-centric episodes, especially the ones in which they allow Chenoweth to sing. I have an enormous girlcrush on KC - have been listening to her Christmas CD nonstop. Sigh. I'm really going to miss this show. When it's on, it's ON.
Olive's cleavage is most awesome by catlettuce4	Dec 4th, 2008 05:18:12 AM
Who gives a shit about Scriptgirl? Olive runs in slow motion... Not a bad singer, too.
So when are they going to air the rest of them? by The McPoyle Clan	Dec 4th, 2008 05:35:53 AM
I read somewhere that there are two more to air in December, which would leave three in the can. We'd better be able to see them without getting the DVDs, even if they sneak them on somewhere. The tongs, and Ned's expression when the Colonel tasted himself were priceless.
Lame yuppie bullshit... by Kid Z	Dec 4th, 2008 08:40:18 AM
...Glad they canned it. Flower prints and dayglo colors are offensive to my aesthetic sensibilities. Olive was attractive in a weird sort of "hottest chick in Munchkinland" way, tho.
Kid Z... by Lenny Nero	Dec 4th, 2008 11:35:45 AM
...How about the actual fucking STORIES? Are those offensive to your myopic mind?
F the Dbag haters by palewook	Dec 4th, 2008 12:24:26 PM
piling onto hoping for attention. PD is a great show. shame its canceled, bring on my reality TV shit for the brain dead masses of inbred short attention span automatons.
Yeah, whatever Lenny... by Kid Z	Dec 4th, 2008 02:36:03 PM
... you don't have to be myopic to be less-than-awed by superfluous fluff dressed up in bright colors. I just never "connected" with the show is all, not my thing, sorry. And lighten the fuck up, will ya?
... and I'm not a Fuller hater, either... by Kid Z	Dec 4th, 2008 02:39:50 PM
...liked Dead Like Me, was never able to catch Wonderfalls, so no opinion on that one.
Come on, Get Holy! by frakthetoasters	Dec 4th, 2008 03:20:15 PM
Here lies Dwight Here lies is gun He was bad Now He's done One of Emerson's best lines!
How is calling something "lame yuppie bullshit..." by Lenny Nero	Dec 4th, 2008 08:20:09 PM
...light? You mentioned only the aesthetic and not the actual plots, characters, writing and interaction in your first post. I feel I was completely in line.
If the networks want to bring back by InActionMan	Dec 4th, 2008 09:39:10 PM
the variety show Kristin Chenoweth is the only person I can think of that might be able to pull it off. Just make sure that her "girls" are prominently featured each week and get some decent writers for some sketches. Have her sing a couple of tunes and find the right time slot.It may just work.
Best cleavage ep EVAR!!! by Billyeveryteen	Dec 4th, 2008 09:40:13 PM
Now I'm broken like Sorkin.
Bout time Olive was singing again by _Maltheus_	Dec 5th, 2008 09:45:44 AM
Her musical number with Digby last season was one of my favorite parts of the show. I'd welcome the peck of cahoots from her any day. Stephen Root dying was a little too convenient however. Still my favorite show on TV however. For a little while longer anyway.
"peck of cahoots" by chromedome	Dec 5th, 2008 01:21:48 PM
best line in the episode!
