If you are a "Pushing Daisies" fan at all, PLEASE watch it tonight!!!!!! This wonderful, wonderful show can still be saved, but only if people tune in. If you have never watched it before but have been curious, please give it a try. It's a true rarity in television -- intelligent, funny, whimsical, and imaginative. The slew of Emmy nominations speaks to its charm.
"Bottom line: Pushing Daisies is not officially canceled, nor has a decision been made yet, but we have very little time to try and save it. Like one or two weeks, tops.
"We honestly don't know yet," creator Bryan Fuller says of Daisies' fate. "We've asked ABC what our future is, and the response has been wait and see, wait and see...We don't know yet, and I'm not sure they know. I think they're waiting on a few factors."
Although yesterday was the final day of production on Daisies' episode 13 (I'm told it was an emotional day on set), ABC insiders tell me that the network is waiting on one crucial determining factor: how Daisies does when it returns this coming Wednesday after being preempted for two weeks (for Dancing With the Stars and the Country Music Awards).
"We do want to see how Daisies does in the postelection viewing environment, which we have not been able to see yet," one ABC source tells me. "The next week or two will be critical."

TELL YOUR FRIENDS, TELL EVERYONE, TO PLEASE WATCH TONIGHT!! Maybe it counts if you Tivo/DVR it and watch it later? I don't know how that works... but if that does count, then please do that and delete it later without watching it, for all I care. But to a whole lot of us, this show really makes us happy... a true bright spot in the landfill of reality shows and garbage that is TV today.
