I am sure all have noticed this cancellation by now. My heart grieves for the loss of not only a very entertaining show, but also the scenery. The way the show is (was) filmed using very vivid colors – to match their vivid storylines, was just amazing and highly pleasing to the eye. So much witty humor was interwoven into this show that I cannot believe it was canceled.
On the other hand, maybe it looked too cartoonish and not like a “real show”…with all of the drama and violence today, this show may have been too soft for many viewers. Even the violence, murder, mayhem on the show, it was all delivered in a very artful colorful package.
I think the true standout character on this show, and my longtime favorite, was Chi McBride. I loved Chi on Boston Public (also canceled!) and was so very glad to see him return to t.v. Now sadly, he is gone again. I am hoping he will pop up somewhere else as he never fails to create an endearing character with a lasting impression for me. Now if the shows could make a lasting impression (or at least one large enough to not get canceled) then we could all celebrate.
I love Pushing Daisies! I’m sorry to see it going away. I don’t get what those tv people are thinking this year
