As sad as I am that there will be no new PUSHING DAISIES episodes until the Fall (or July for those of us lucky enough to go to Comic Con), I take comfort in knowing that I can check out The Pie Hole gang anytime I want at ABC.com. Currently four full episodes (”Dummy”, “Corpsicle”, “Bitter Sweets, “Smell of Success”) are your free to watch anytime you want.

Pretty soon we are going to be launching a little contest aimed at finding out how YOU think we can get new viewers watching PUSHING DAISIES come the Fall, but until then make sure you tell everyone you know about the show and encourage them to go to ABC.com to experience the magic that is PUSHING DAISIES.

According to Michael Ausiello, Lawrence Trilling - producer on favorites such as “Invasion”, “Alias”, and “Felicity” will be joining the Pie Holers behind the scenes for season two. Mr. Trilling directed “Smell of Success” so he’s quote familiar with the magic that is Daisies. Just wanted to welcome Lawrence to the PUSHING DAISIES family - consider yourself lucky.

Happy Birthday to Pushing Daisies star Lee Pace from ThePieMaker.com and all of our readers!

I hope you didn’t think our coverage of the PUSHING DAISIES panel at this year’s Paley Festival was over! It’s been a long time since we’ve been able to really celebrate the show, so we wanted to make sure we shared as much as we could for those of you who weren’t able to attend.

To that end, we decided to do our second Pushing Daisies Piecast Podcast - this one devoted to our Paley experience. Among other things we discuss some of what we learned during the panel, some thoughts on Season 2, and our experience with the cast on that great night.

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.

Take it away ladies…

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.

We’ve already posted a bunch of the official Paley Center images from last night’s Pushing Daisies Paley Festival Panel but here are the one’s that Kath and I took during the session as well as during the fan signing.

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…

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!
