‘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?
