Pushing Daisies - Season 2 (1 Viewer)

Here's a promo for Season 2 which starts in October.

Looking forward to the new season. I've got to admit, I've developed a little bit of a crush on Kristin Chenoweth (Olive). Just don't tell my wife.

I told my wife.

You told your wife I had a crush on Kristin Chenoweth or that YOU had a crush on Kristin Chenoweth?

Well, that sucks! I can't watch the season two premiere thanks to the clowns! Yes, I have coulraphobia.

I don't know if you are joking or not, but one of my daughters was afraid of clowns, Santa Claus, or anyone with a mask until she was five or six. She would literally shake while I was holding her if a clown came near her. Needless to say we never went to the circus when she was young.

Lucia;

I am right there with you. I don't actually fear them, but they make me really uncomfortable and won't stay in the same room with one.

No joking here. I have such a fear of clowns. I can't look at them, be in a room with them. I don't do the circus, fairs or anything that could possibly involve clowns.

When I started watching the trailer for Pushing Daisies, the second the clowns appeared, my heart lept from my chest and I left the room. I just have such a physical reaction to them. They freak me out.

true story: I work at Costco on the front end and a clown came in to purchase some shrimp. I had to stay in the office until he left. The very next day the same clown came back and again, I was in the office until he left. I hate clowns!

I do however, hope you all enjoy the season premiere, let me know how it turns out.

I didn't have a problem with them when I was
a kid, but now, I do not like them....
I think it is a combination of 'It' and 'Poltergeist'
that really got to people in regards to the whole
'clown image'(anyone remember 'Killer Clowns From
Outer Space'?).
that scene in 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner Of Azkaban',
where the kids are supposed to imagine the thing that they
fear the most and that one girl sees/creates a giant cobra,
which, after she says 'ridiculous!', becames a giant creepy clown,
is very, very disturbing.
the snake is not at all scary.....the clown is terrifying!!
they should have had her see the clown as the thing to fear and then
turn it into a bunch of balloons or something!
by the way, I love 'Pushing Daisies'...!
to me, the brightest spot last season, along with 'Chuck'!
I hope that they can keep up the magic on these shows this season,
too!
:star:

Can you please take the fear-of-clowns discussion to the After Hours forum?

Does anyone know if Molly Shannon or Paul Reubens are going to be in the new season?

Molly Shannon is starring in a new sitcom on NBC this season so there's probably no chance of her appearing (unless her show bombs and gets the hook quickly).

Does anyone know when in October this season starts?

Next Wednesday.

Next week is here! ABC starts up its 2nd season tonight 8 p.m. EDT.

Can't wait! Can't wait! Can't wait!

My most anticipated return of the new season!

Well, the premiere wasn't clowns. That's apparently next week. This week's was pleasant enough, but it didn't feel like a season opener. The case-of-the-week was pretty routine.

Kristin Chenoweth is a beautiful and talented singer and actress. No wonder Aaron Sorekin based his character Harriet Hayes on her in Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip.

She is one the major reasons I watch this show.

Bzzzzzz!
Was a nice season opener.
I agree it didn't feel like a season opener.
But it was very pleasant.

I re watched that morgue scene many times
and I don't get who the other person was that was flipped over on her back(the one they didn't talk to)

I'm wondering what happened to Emerson's daughter
and when we will be seeing her added.
Ned's father is returning.
Wonder what for? Ulterior motive?

Kristin Chenoweth is very talented and beautiful.
I love that picture of her up above.
My favorite thing she's done in Pushing Daisies
is when she was signing the They Might Be Giants song,
"Birdhouse in Your Soul" song from Season 1

Similar to some other shows that had shortened premiere seasons, they did quite a big recap to bring viewers up to date with the basic premise and so forth.

I think the other person on her back was just part of the joke.

As someone with a decent bee sting phobia, while watching it wasn't that bad, when I was trying to sleep last night I kept on seeing bees for a while.

I am wondering how long Olive can keep her secrets. I hope she reveals them soon and rejoins the rest of the cast.
