I don't know how anyone could consider canceling this wonderful gem either! I keep watching episodes, almost expecting them to be bad because they must be if the ratings are low, but it's a TOTAL FALLACY! It's so quirky, and sweet, and hilarious, and SMART, and ... Moreover, Season 2 is even BETTER than S1, imo, since there's real plot now that's exciting and intriguing (I am terrified that the show will end and Ned will never get to have his confrontation with his dad. *cries* I want them to reunite and then to hurt Charles Charles badly because he's a big ole jerk).

There was a time when I thought Olive wasn't all that special (because all she did was pine over Ned), but when she's not doing that she is SO SO SO SO AWESOME! Her humor is hilarious and her character is wonderful. And only on PD, would I be able to not only accept, but find incredibly endearing, Ned's confession of having "not ever" thought of Olive romantically, even though I ship Ned/Chuck 350%. lol. And Olive's interaction with Emerson, and Emerson/Vivian, and Vivian/Lily (with Lily being the protective sister) ... SQUEE! Everything is SO amazing. WHY, WHY, WHY would people take this show away from its fans is beyond me. :(

I never guessed Ned's dad was the guardian angel so that was an awesome surprise. People are already thinking that Ned's magic finger is a hereditary thing. And I LOVED the Ned patch-up from Chuck (♥♥♥). And the allergy bit. HEE.

*weeps bitterly over only 3 episodes left*

It is so amazing and I don't understand network decisions.

I am terrified that the show will end and Ned will never get to have his confrontation with his dad. *cries* I want them to reunite and then to hurt Charles Charles badly because he's a big ole jerk).

THIS. EXACTLY. Although I'm still not convinced I can forgive Ned's dad for abandoning him, even if we find out he had a good rationale. Because baby Ned is so adorable and forlorn. :(

i have always loved Olive. In large part I am predisposed to do so because, hi Cheno! But also because right in episode two we had the secret orchestra in her heart and I was very much ADJ:AJLKJE I LOVE YOU OLIVE. Yes, just that incoherent. Yes.

would I be able to not only accept, but find incredibly endearing, Ned's confession of having "not ever" thought of Olive romantically, even though I ship Ned/Chuck 350%

Exactly! I don't ship Ned/Olive at all and the fact that he was like "Yeah, I kind of thought about you that way once in a while" made me go awwww and melt and just be very happy.

I can't take there being only three episodes. No. *goes to live in denial*

I know. When you think about it, Ned IS Ned because his father left him when he was kid. So it definitely had an impact. (But then, maybe we should THANK Ned's dad for abandoning him because grown-up Ned could not have turned out any sweeter and cuter! :D). Anyway, I do hope that they get to reunite! This is pulling at my heartstrings!

Oh, I loved her singing the Grease song. She did it so well. Yeah, I've grown to love the actress and character, but I guess you always did since you were already familiar with her Broadway stuff. :)

ONLY THIS SHOW CAN MAKE ME APPRECIATE SOMETHING THAT I NEVER WANNA SEE HAPPEN! OH, PUSHING DAISIES, I'LL MISS YOU SOOOO.... *joins Chica in the land of denial*

Hmm. This is true, but still. Sad baby Ned is so...sad. And forlorn. I want to take him home and feed him.

Kind of want to take sad adult Ned home and feed him, too. Maybe that's just me.

My Broadway geekiness had benefits! Not many. But some. ;D

IT'S SO HAPPY HERE IN THE LAND OF DENIAL! *whistles loudly*
