Lot’s of people are loving Pushing Daisies, so last night, while Neal had baseball on the idiot box, I watched the first two episodes online. I am crazy about this show. For a chica who went 14 years sans television, I sure am getting hooked. I’ll add PD to my weekly must-sees Grey’s Anatomy and Ugly Betty. The show really plays on fairy tale themes, which appeals to me, and as in Ugly Betty, colors are used so effectively; this show makes me want to pull out my watercolors and play, but I’m committed to grading today. I sort of blew it off yesterday to play with wool.
It’s bright and sunny today, so I’ll snap some pictures of Rhinebeck gifties as well as a few projects I’ve been knitting. For now, though, it’s a grading fiesta!
Ooohh . . . it’s a grading fiesta in our house, too! Stupid grading – I would be so much more productive with my time if it weren’t for grading. Sometimes I yearn for a subject where multiple choice is the norm, unlike writing. Only 115 more sub-par essays to go!
I love Ugly Betty and Pushing Daisies too. And I’m so glad that Ugly Betty seems (so far) to have avoided the second-season curse–it’s just as good this year so far as it was last year.
Okay okay, I’ll check it out. And I’ll like it I know, because you are not the first person to say it is good. It has to be better than what Heroes is up to so far this season.
Glad to hear you like both of my favorite sows. 🙂 I’m not a TV addict, but those two shows give a nice break to the evenings.
I am loving Pushing Daisies, too! The narrator is the cherry on top of the sundae in my book…
I could happily just look at Pushing Daisy’s the colors are so wonderful.
Ahhh, yes, I did the same as you yesterday and ignored the wild screams coming from the folder I keep my students’ work in to focus on alpaca. Only to find today that apparently obesity is a new category of biological ethnic/racial classification.
I still haven’t seen it, but I’ll see about finding it online. I just got addicted to Mad Men, and I was able to watch the last 6 episode via our cable’s On Demand service. I just have to wait for the DVD to see the first 7 episodes! Go forth and grade!
