Pushing Daisies would have smashed a third season and I still hold out hope a decade+ later.

Wonderfalls was great. They're both amazing but PD edges it out juuust a bit for me.

Pushing Daisies wasn't even killed by ratings. It was killed by the writer's strike, just like Terminator: The Sarah Conner Chronicles was (another great show that should've been around much longer)

FOX was only going to renew one half of that double feature and went with Whedon. As much as I really do enjoy S2 of Dollhouse I'm still butthurt over that. e: also yeah iirc PD had great ratings before the strike

Those slow thoughtful episodes ruled, it was the middle ones that sucked. There was a cool thread awhile back recapping it, I'll see if I can dig it up. https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3605986&pagenumber=1&perpage=40 https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3797582&pagenumber=1&perpage=40 crepeface fucked around with this message at 13:42 on Dec 6, 2018 |

The middle chunk was that big Sarah like three parter that unfortunately went nowhere and ground the season to a halt til she stopped her wild goose chase.

clown shoes posted:It's her first "major" award nomination ever. Previously she had only received like Teen Choice and MTV Movie Award nods. She's been nominated for two Television Critics Awards as well, and while the TCAs are deliberately lower key than other awards, I feel like they should count as much or more than the Emmys, SAG, or Golden Globes because TV critics are better read than the other voter pools.

Critics vote on the Globes as well.
