Is ABC going to break my heart? Is it true? Is Pushing Daisies really canceled?
It is, according to certain reports. In fact, Daisies, Dirty Sexy Money and Eli Stone have apparently been given the ax by the Alphabet Net. While ABC has not officially commented on the shows’ statuses, word is that they will not give them full season orders.
Which is a crying shame. Pushing Daises was (is?) a quirky, unique show that deserves a place on TV. I could wax philosophically about how another network might pick it up, or how it might move to cable… but the fact is, I’m resigned to Daisies fate. I’m still bent out of shape that the networks killed off Arrested Development and Veronica Mars, so I don’t see why I should shed any tears for Daisies. Oh, and word initially was that ABC was going to kill off Life On Mars too, but they’ve finally listened to the thousands of TV blogs that helpfully suggested that they move it to the post-Lost timeslot. I think Lost and Mars back-to-back is a winning combo. But what the hell do I know? My seconid favorite show just got canceled!
RIP, Pushing Daisies! I’ll miss you so much!
Nooooooo! They CAN’T cancel this show!
Boooo ABC!
