Pushing Daisies- Tenth Anniversery of a Marvelous Show

Just wanted to commemorate the ten year anniversery of a short lived TV show, Pushing Daisies, which defied conventional broadcast television for two abbreviated, but brilliant seasons with its quirky characters and mysteries enhanced by imaginative set designs, atmospheric music, and snappy dialogue. It was equal parts fantasy, comedy and drama filled with unusual subplots and musical sequences but always surrounded by love. It was a show I looked forward to indulge each week. Created from the fertile mind of Brian Fuller (Hannibal, Star Trek Discovery, American Gods and much more), it was a gem we don't see too often in the landscape of television. It was on not nearly long enough, but I am grateful it existed at all. Ten years seems like a long time ago.
