Comments on: new show review: Pushing Daisies http://www.screenwriterguy.com/new-tv-reviews/new-show-review-pushing-daisies musings of a wannabe comedy writer Thu, 03 May 2012 01:03:46 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Monique http://www.screenwriterguy.com/new-tv-reviews/new-show-review-pushing-daisies/comment-page-1#comment-532 Monique Sun, 14 Oct 2007 02:55:53 +0000 http://www.screenwriterguy.com/2007/10/04/new-show-review-pushing-daisies/#comment-532 I too found this to be fun - and I totally am on board with the Roald Dahl idea. The narrator is perfectly voiced, and I love how he always says "the pie man" or "the detective" in the narration. It's charming. The ultra-saturated colors are very appealing and it is what so many of the shows on tv currently are not - it's actually FUN! And appears to not take itself too seriously. Last episode, I loved the Dandelion promo girls - the costumers on this set must have a BLAST.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('532','Monique'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('532','Monique','I too found this to be fun - and I totally am on board with the Roald Dahl idea.

TiVo is set. Second episode veered a little off-track from fun whimsy to just plain goofy/silly, but what a fun premise -- a guy who can't touch the love of his life. Very Edward Scissorhands-y and unique.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('530','StudioPicturesSuck'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('530','StudioPicturesSuck','Fun, new show.

Instead of Dr. Seuss though, I picture it as a Roald Dahl/Douglas Adams type of writing. The witty dialouge works, especially in a Sonnenfield pilot as it fits in with his other films (Get Shorty, Men in Black, Big Trouble) that had me laughing when I don't imagine my other people would. I really hope this continues as it's very enjoyable.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('526','Robby'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('526','Robby','I love this show.
