The divine divas from E!, Kristen Dos Santos and Korbi Ghosh, hit the Pushing Daisies Paley Festival Red Carpet and got the poop, the scoop, the skinny, the haps, the dilly-o and the 411. Chi McBride also reveals that the writing staff is on crack. Mild Spoilers coming your way!
Head on over to Watch With Kristin to see the whole post and a picture from the panel that has both Kath and I visible in the bottom left. Dorks!
If you’ve been following our coverage of the Pushing Daisies Paley Festival panel then you know we’re planning on doing another Piecast Podcast to chat about how incredible the evening was but we couldn’t help get some information up after all the emails we’ve received.
The Piecast will hopefully be ready for Monday night as we’ve decided to hold out until after our visit to the Writers Room in the afternoon in case Bryan Fuller and Co. give us any scoop we can spill to all the fans. Fingers crossed gang!
As we’re really trying to save our thoughts until the Piecast, we decided it would be a good chance to have some of our loyal ThePieMaker.com readers in attendance share their thoughts with you all!
First up is Patricia from San Diego (who oddly enough happens to be the Sister of my friend Jenny, strange but true) who attended the panel with her husband Michael. Patricia’s got a ton of quotes from the panel as well as some fun tidbits that the cast and crew shared. Some of our burning questions are answered as well. Ever wonder if Ned is a Vegetarian or if Ned & Chuck could ever possibly have a baby? Well, read on…
Second will be reader Erika with a quick take on what it was like to be a fan and aspiring TV Writer in attendance of her favorite show.
The deluge continues… Here is a very brief video from the beginning of the Pushing Daisies Paley Fest Panel discussion. Hopefully the Paley Center will be releasing a DVD of the panel for sale in the very near future. We will of course keep you updated if that is the case.
For full disclosure, our microtrack was confiscated and our cameras bitch-slapped out of our hands by Security (we were in the front row so apparently it was distracting) even though they made no announcement but whatevs…
*Share your thoughts on your favorite pictures in the comments section because you never know who’s reading!
Here are a few of the official photos from last night’s PUSHING DAISIES panel at Paley Fest courtesy of the Paley Center website. More of our own personal pics and videos are on their way. Check back soon for more.
Kath and I just got up so we’ll start disseminating information slowly this morning. Here’s a video that The Paley Center already posted from last night’s Pushing Daisies Paley Festival Panel of Chi McBride (Emerson Cod) being his hysterical self and mocking the entire cast. If you listen to the clip carefully enough, you’ll hear Ellen Greene (Aunt Viv) with her adorable “donkey” laugh! The video also has Moderator, Kristin Dos Santos asking a couple fan submitted questions.
Hey gang, Kath and I just returned from our fantastic night with the cast and writers of Pushing Daisies. As you know, they were on hand for Night 2 of the Paley Festival and a sold out crowd welcomed Bryan Fuller, Peter Ocko, Lee Pace, Anna Friel, Chi McBride, Kristin Chenoweth, Ellen Greene, Bruce Cohen and Dan Jinks as well as the fraktastic writing staff for a night we surely won’t forget.
It’s almost 2am here in Los Angeles and we just returned from the after party with the cast and writers who are just a divine group of folks who are incredibly honored and humbled by all of the fans and the love we and other Pushing Daisies sites put out there.
We’ll write more later, post some pictures, some audio, video and even have a podcast ready over the next day or so. Big huge emotional heimlich’s to all of ThePieMaker.com readers who stopped us and chatted. You guys/gals are rock stars and it was amazing meeting you all. Check back later, but for now it’s bedtime!
We’ve decided to create a new segment here on ThePieMaker.com which salutes specific works from the cast of PUSHING DAISIES. Welcome to BEFORE THEY WERE ON PUSHING DAISIES!
Today we’re saluting one of the show’s strongest voices, Aunt Vivian aka Broadway star Ellen Greene. Probably the most obvious choice for a video salute from Ellen is her unbelievable turn in Little Shop of Horrors singing “Suddenly Seymour” with co-star Rick Moranis.
It’s Monday and there’s no PUSHING DAISIES this week so we here at ThePieMaker.com are keeping our favorite Pie Ho’s on the brain by bringing you these new photos from various Red Carpet Events.
