I know this sounds pessimistic, but as long as ABC airs the remaining episodes, I think I'll be fine.
I had hope, but after seeing the numbers this morning, I've given up.

Honestly, that's what I am hoping for as well. I would love to see the rest play out on TV, instead of getting a DVD release 6 months from now, a new PD during the week cheers me up and I like looking forward to it.

Until there is official word from ABC, I'm not believing any of the crazy stuff. And if people want to be pessimistic that's their prerogative - I plan to enjoy the rest of the season.

I plan to as well, I'm just not getting my hopes up for ABC to order anymore. I am fine as long as they air the rest of the episodes and we don't have to wait six months to see those on DVD.

That doesn't make sense if they were waiting for the ratings to come in, since this is what TheFutonCritic posted:

During the 8 o'clock hour, ABC's "Pushing Daisies" defeated NBC's "Knight Rider" for the first time in Adults 18-49, by 13% (1.7/5 vs. 1.5/4). "Daisies" also bested its NBC drama competition for the 2nd straight telecast with Adults 18-34, by 38% (1.8/5 vs. 1.3/4).

Sounds like the improvement, especially in the target demo, that they had hoped to see?

In this case it is actually more a case of KR falling with break neck speed. In cold numbers PD has not improved in either absolut viewers nor the demo.
