Pretty interesting reveal tonight about Chuck's aunt!
Overall excellent acting as ususal.
I finally got around to watching this episode, and I really enjoyed this one. Definitely a nice twist about the aunt at the end. Just one more tidbit Olive will file away ... but for how long?
I recall a comment from Stuart in another thread about the size of Kristin Chenowith's head ... it was definitely noticeable in this episode, but I think it's the short/wide haircut and the odd clothing this series espouses that accentuates it. However, because of Stuart, I will never again be able to look at "Olive Snook" without wondering what her hat size is ... :lol:
PS - Anyone recognize that the same home used for Samantha and Darren Steven's home in Bewitched was used for the sick boy who needed a heart? :)

I posted in an earlier Pushing Daisies thread that this series has to have some of the most complex dialog on television right now, and it reminded me of the complex dialog in John From Cincinnati and Deadwood. However, even given the complexity, the dialog in Pushing Daisies is much more accessible than in the other two series I named ...

Absolutely agree. I find I have to pay really close attention to the rapid fire dialog. Not that that is necessarily bad, but I find I dare not sneeze lest major points are lost. :) Obviously an exaggeration, but still, thank God for the rewind ability of the DVR.
