PUSHING DAISIES Spoilers: “Bzzzzzzzzz” Sneak Peek

If you are a staunch anti-spoiler advocate, then you’ll want to stay away from this video which features one of my favorite scenes from the upcoming season premiere of PUSHING DAISIES.

This scene is a personal favorite because of Ned & Chuck’s interaction. It has absolutely nothing to do with Lee Pace standing around shirtless, only in his boxer shorts. Nope that has nothing to do with it at all. I hardly noticed that he was half naked.

PUSHING DAISIES Comic Con Panel Recap

Pushing Daisies Comic Con Panel

So you’ve seen the pictures and hopefully you’ve had the chance to listen to the full audio of the PUSHING DAISIES panel at Comic Con.  But we understand that some of you have to be a little covert  and maybe can’t be listening while at work or school, so we wanted to post a mini-recap of the panel itself for your reading pleasure.

We’ve broken in out into two sections, the first being general highlights from the panel and the second section being spoilerish information.  If you want to avoid spoilers just stop reading when we tell you to.

Bryan Fuller and the cast are excited about the Comic Con Panel…

  • As happy as the audience would have been to watch the “Pie-lette” once again, it wasn’t in the original plans for Team Daisies. The panel’s opening video was supposed to be some footage from the PUSHING DAISIES Paley Fest panel, but as the now familiar scenes of the first episode aired Bryan Fuller and Barry Sonnenfeld rushed to the stage to stop the presses (or at least the video). Instead they showed the fantastic Season 2 teaser trailer which threw the already amped-up crowd into a tizzy. But not before Fuller was able to pimp the much anticipated launch date for Season 1 of PUSHING DAISIES on DVD (September 16th on DVD and Blu-Ray. Pre-order your copy here today.)
  • As the cast was introduced by moderator Barry Sonnenfeld’s acerbic comments, many of them took the stage by running past the front row and slapping hands with the audience.  I almost lost an eye due to the Cheno fans behind me but it would have been well worth it. (I could always ask Aunt Viv for a fancy new eye-patch).
  • Anna Friel tried out her American accent on the crowd for a bit but we all quickly cheered her back into her British speak. (On a side note, Anna looked stunning in with her black dress and bright red lips)
  • Chi McBride, who was decked out in a colorful tee and jeans quipped that he was dressed for Comic Con while some of his co-stars were red carpet ready.  Kristin and Anna both sported fantastic little black dresses for the event all looked all kinds of glam.
  • Barry Sonnenfeld read aloud a message that Team Daisies sexy mama bear, Ellen Greene, sent to the cast before their bus travels from L.A. to San Diego.  She reminded them that the bus can get chilly so bring a sweater, and offered up some fun travel options including games and movies.  She’s adorable!

Lee Pace & Anna Friel on Ned & Chuck

Ned & Chuck, Pushing Daisies

WARNING! The following contains minor spoilers about tonight’s episode.

A Hands-Off Attitude Lifts ‘Daisies’ Duo
by Bill Keveny, USA Today

It could be fall’s most touching TV romance, except it can’t be. In ABC’s fantastical Pushing Daisies (tonight, 8 ET/PT), a touch from Ned (Lee Pace, Soldier’s Girl) brings first love Chuck (Anna Friel, The Jury) back to life, but a second touch will send her to the great beyond permanently. Oklahoma native Pace, 28, and Friel, 31, who hails from England, talk to USA TODAY about the first-year critical hit and time-slot winner (10.7 million viewers).

Q: From your banter, you seem to get along great. Could you engage in this romantic pairing if you didn’t?
Pace: I don’t know if you could get the specific thing that Chuck and Ned have if you didn’t like each other as much as we do.
Friel: I’d be surprised. I’ve seen really great love stories and then heard through the grapevine that they actually despised each other. I don’t think I could do that, if you’re working 16-17 hours a day, five days a week. … I see more of Lee than I do my daughter (2-year-old Gracie), my partner (actor David Thewlis) and my family.

Q: What do you think of the central conceit — one touch, life; second touch, death?
Pace: It’s sensible for Chuck to move as far away from Ned as possible. They shouldn’t be in the same room together. But they can’t live without each other.

Q: To avoid contact, pie-maker Ned and Chuck have touched through beekeeper suits, plastic casings, rubber gloves and kitchen wrap. How does it feel to kiss through plastic?
Friel: It’s so hot. I highly recommend it. One of the most sexual experiences of my life (she says, laughing). The same with the plastic sacks in the car. That was thicker. Each time we do it, the plastic is getting thinner and thinner. We started with industrial strength and now it’s going to super fine.

Ned & Chuck: An Epic Love Story

We’re suckers for a good fanvid, and this one doesn’t disappoint. How could it go wrong with Ned & Chuck living and loving against the theme from “Love, Actually”? Is it October 3rd yet?
