When I got to check out the Pushing Daisies “Pi-lette” back in July, I gave it glowing reviews, as did many of the early reviewers.  I felt like it was one of the best pilots I had ever seen, so, of course, I was concerned that the show would struggle to live up to the magic.  A large part of the magic of the show centered on the development of the relationship between Ned and Chuck, so, once the story moved beyond that, I wasn’t sure how it would maintain its appeal.

So, to my surprise, it’s still got it.  The quirky, random humor is still there.  The larger-than-life characters are still there.  Everything I loved about the pilot is still there.  And there’s even a musical number thrown in for kicks.

They’ve now proven that they can keep the magic up over two episodes.  If this momentum can be maintained, Pushing Daisies could become my favorite show.
