Things not looking so well for Pushing Daisies.  And Heroes needs to find it's feet.

I would like to point out that Pushing Daisies was away far too long and should've had more hype about it's return and I love that show.

The season premiere was merely okay.  I was hoping for better.

I have my fingers crossed for Samantha Who?

Did anyone see Fringe?  I meant to watch it but totally forgot and napped that evening.  It looked interesting in the previews I saw.  It was kinda X-Files-ish but with a different feel.

It's trying to hard to be spooky and quirky and not really achieving either.

It's getting better after a weak start.  The writing is still hokey in places ("The Observer"?  Really?), but it's from the guys who wrote Transformers.  I'm not expecting Shakespeare.

I think all episodes are available on Hulu.

I have problems taking Pacey seriously.

I tried watching the premiere and I think it was trying to do too much and utterly failed to capture my attention. 

One of my coworkers just became a Nielson family.  I told him he had to tune the tv to Pushing Daisies even if he didn't watch it.  He said they're watching Knight Rider.  I told him to get a little portable for Knight Rider.  Although, the guy who plays Michael is delicious.
