Pushing Daisies Slated For The Ax?

Sure, but what show do we sacrifice in it's stead?
^Any "reality" show.
^^ Almost any other show, period. 
Being on the same night as Lost will probably help it; I hope it lasts that long.

How about any one of the half a billion cops shows?
Guess again.

No. Why don't you just tell us?
Too bad if it gets canceled - it's a good show.
But then, the American public doesn't like anything that pushes an envelope, creatively. They love 'predictable'.
I really don't understand why Fuller's shows haven't done very well. I love this show...and I REALLY loved Wonderfalls.

An attempt to joke about the nunnery plotline?

Ned's resurrection ability is inherently irreligious.
Not that I actually give a fuck what the answer is. I'm just bored I guess.
I haven't watched the others but PD really didn't amp up the "what's at stake" element until this past episode. The audience didn't feel like something big was at stake for them to care about, and drifted away. Shows need to have a sense of urgency in order to hang on to an audience (it's not the only thing, but it's an essential thing).
Introducing the Man with a Gun last season (and not having a writers strike mess everything up) might have saved the show. There was the killer who was stalking Chuck at some point, right? What happened with that. Whatever the what's-at-stake element is, it needs to be followed up consistently.
Aunt Lilly/Mom blew him away at the end of the first episode, if you are speaking of Pee Wee Herman and his weird smell fixation, that ended when Chuck sent him away.
This show is just too unlike network TV, people aren't being taken hostage or shot enough I guess
No, there was another stalker, the killer who originally suffocated Chuck. Wasn't he introduced at some point as being a potential threat? Or maybe I read something that implied he would be.
For that matter, the "old army buddy" could be the guy who killed Chuck!

Nope, that was the guy Aunt Lily shot in the first ep. When he saw Chuck at the house, he gave her a confused look and asked "didn't I already kill you?" Then Lily shot him and he went flying out the window.
^ And died, according to the narrator.
Ah, right. But did we ever learn why he killed Chuck?
If Ned's dad also has the power, he could bring him back to life. Not that it makes sense to do any long-term speculation at this point.
Gold monkeys.
