Older‘Pushing Daises’ is a Ratings Success!
Daises bloomed during last night’s premiere, pulling in a hefty 12.83 million viewers.
It’s the third strongest premiere of any show this season behind Bionic Woman and Private Practice. According to TV Guide, Deal or No Deal placed second (with 11 mil), followed by Kid Nation (7.5 mil, down another 110 thou) and Fox’s sitcombo of Back to You (6.58 mil, down a mil) and ‘Til Death (holding steady with 6.22 mil). Top Model (4.52 mil) dropped another 330K.
Pushing Daises is fun fun fun with its fanciful storytelling style and whimsical originality. It reminded me a bit of Ugly Betty with the transitions, which is a plus!
The lead actor, Lee Pace, reminds me of Chuck’s Zachary Levi, who reminds me of The Office’s John Krasinski. Geek is in, guys! And it all ties together since Ned’s love interest’s name is Chuck too!
WHAT DID YOU THINK of the “Pushing Daises” premiere? Will you watch next week?

LOOOOOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!! My husband missed it though, will there be an encore of the pilot? I don’t think he will sit at the computer to watch a tv show. I KNOW he’ll love this show, but the pilot has all of the history, he needs to see it.
And you all are right, very Tim Burton!
Heck yes
i seen it, i doubt it’ll last long.
I was disappointed. The voiceover was annoying. After about 30 minutes I couldn’t watch it anymore. The actors had NO chemistry, despite what I’ve heard. The star, whatever his name is, should play a serious serial killer, he has the looks, otherwise he just reminded me of a creepy Michael Jackson type of person. And they look a little too old for their roles really. Anna Friel just didn’t cut it for me either. Sorry, but I won’t be watching this again.
I’m in Brazil and already in love for the show!
there’s something “Amelie Poulain”in it that it’s impossible not to like.
I’ll watch next week for sure!!!
I could not stay interested in it. It was to cute for me. The narration was creepy.
I love Ned! He is so cute. :)
I hate bionic woman but I like Michelle Ryans.
LOVED IT! Will watch every week for sure.
Awesome! Tim Burtonish whimsical.
Are all but four of these comments written by the same person? Like, the show’s publicist maybe?
Seriously. Perfect spelling, perfect punctuation, and the phrase “best new show of the season” over and over and over….
So obvious!
I think “Journeyman” is the best new show of the season. The guy from Rome is sooooo sexy!
Lee Pace is a hottie! What a cute show!
Glad to see another hit from Bryan Fuller. I hope it doesn’t end up like Wonderfalls…
i loved the pilot… it was so refreshing just watching it…i can’t wait for the next eppy…
love this show, of course i watch next episode
I loved the premiere and I’m so glad it did well ratings-wise. I can’t wait to see where the show goes from here.
Oh my god it was fantastic!!! Definately one of my new favorite shows.
LOVED IT!!! My new favorite show with my new crush. Lee Pace is the cutest!!!
Reminds me of the show Wonderfalls!
I loved the show - will definitely catch it next week!
I love it!!!!!! It was great..the couple is soo cute… :)
I’m in love with it. Yes, definitely will watch more!
I had low expectations and when I saw it I was blown away. It’s a fresh new show, that’s simple and takes you to a different place. I will watch it every week. AND Jim Dale (the voice over guy) makes it light hearted a child like. Very Good Show!
I loved it. Found it very refreshing. My dog was hit and killed by a car - so the intro was a little tough but the show was real fun to watch!
I really enjoyed Pushing Daisies. I even watched the repeat tonight (Friday, 10/05/07). The preview for next week looks like even more fun!
