Pushing Daisies Fodder

Pushing Daisies Ep. 2 Finally Viewable in UK.

British channel ITV is finally airing "Dummy," the second episode of Pushing Daisies-sort of.

As reported here earlier, due to a scheduling conflict with football (or soccer, depending on where you live), the channel had to cut an episode of the nine-episode first season, and decided on "Dummy" because it would be least disruptive to the storyline. However, they stated that they would run the episode "some time."

Apparently "some time" is now, only not on the TV. No, if you live in the UK and want to see the episode you missed, you have to go online to see it. And it's only on this week.

ITV is hilariously calling it a "magic" episode available "exclusively online." As if you were getting something extra. Not just getting the previously promised remainder of the season.

Also, of course, while it is only available online, the ITV site does not have the market cornered on the episode. Should you, my faithful readers, not be able to watch from the ITV site, by all means, go to ABC.com and watch it there. And then I suggest complaining vociferously to ITV. Apparently the angry response to the episode being dropped in the first place may be the only reason you're getting to see it at all.

Man, those had better be some darn good football championships is all I have to see.
