Pushing Daisies: Episode 1.9, "Corpsicle" recap

oscardahl · 12-12-2007, 02:54 PM

If that's the last Pushing Daisies we get to see until next Fall, then it was a good one to go out on. There are no more new Pushing Daisies episodes in the can, so until the writers' strike gets resolved, tonight's “Corpsicle” will be where Ned and the gang leaves us for the time being. I'm OK with that. Bryan Fuller said that he tweaked the script for this last episode right before the strike to make it feel more like a season finale. He wasn't kidding. Tonight's was a season finale and “special Holiday episode” wrapped into one, including an out of left field cliffhanger and a holiday miracle performed by a Binobo monkey named Bobo.

I agree. it was an amazing episode.

Loved the show, but why'd they have to call Bobo a bonobo? It's a cute little pun, but bonobos aren't monkeys. They're apes that are basically chimpanzees except that they have a lot more sex. The truth about bonobos is awesome enough - there's no reason to call them monkeys for the sake of a joke.

This was an amazing show. Every episode of this season has been top notch. The cliffhanger at the end was brilliant. Especially after having just seen the Aunts reactions when the first arrived after the death of Chuck's father. I'm so looking forward to the next season. I just hope the New Year brings a fair settlement to the strike so we can have our shows back!

What a great episode. It can be so funny and touching at the same time. Is this the last episode for a while? I sure hope not. This show is brilliantly written. If I were the producer, I'd give the writers anything they wanted to ge the next episode going.
Swoosie is Chuck's mom??? Wow.
