Starts tonight! *Squeal*
I honestly haven’t been this excited for a show in quite some time.
Nice! I needed this back. Time for some light hearted comedy. I can only hope for more musical numbers!
I’m pretty sure I read that Chenowith sings tonight. We can hope. God, it’s good to have this and CHUCK back.
My favorite new show of last year, I didn’t know it started tonight.
Having watched The Fall recently I’m totally in the mood for some more Lee Pace. If it weren’t for all the juicy cleavage on this show I swear he could turn me the other way.
This is, by far, my favorite show from last year and I am eagerly anticipating tonight’s episode.
I really am excited to watch this. Caught a preview at a movie last night (weird, I know). Know anywhere where you can catch the first season?
Ha! Awesome. The temp agency, Happy Time, is the temp agency from Dead Like Me. I wonder if George was working that day…
Good episode, great to have it back. I had trouble following all the shit going on because I’m at work and trying to edit and talk to people and watch at the same time, but I dug it.
Pigsby.
“They’re cleaners.”
Emerson’s hump.
“He. Is. Stalking. You.”
Chuck thinking about training her bees to become walking bee people. All great moments. As was seeing Chuck in her silky intimates. Jesus, but this show loves it’s cleavage. And while Olive won’t be showing any, for awhile at least, she sure fills out a habit. Jesus.

Holy crap, totally missed that!
If he can get away with it, Fuller is planning on having some characters from his other shows show up on Daisies.
Two words: “Truth Buckshot”
I do think the episode suffered a bit by trying to cram in every single event from last season to get new viewers up to speed, but “Oh, here comes the poor” more than made up for it.
Its funny I have never seen a show that uses puns and various wordplay to such good comedic effect.
Although my favorite line of the night is easily:
“HE IS STALKING YOU!”
You guys hit on all the big stuff. Loved it all. Emerson continues to be the go to character for laughs, but I found it interesting that they alluded he had a missing daughter. Also, Ned’s dad reappearing. Looks like they want to expand the show to beyond murder of the week.

ABC.com has all the eps up, but I find their viewer a pain to load. You might try hulu.com.
Edit: Here you go (although it looks like they just redirect you to the abc website.

Olive Snook continues to steal the show. She’s just amazing.
Also, the production design of the show is staggering.
Olive is hit or miss with me. She is either really funny or really annoying. There’s no in between.
The Bee story sucked (here’s hoping that that was a temp editor editing this one) as did sending Olive to a missionary, but everything else was as good as I remember it. You all can have your Emmersons and your Olives (both of whom I adore), but for me the VIP in this show is Lee Pace. He doesn’t over-quirk it and he helps keep the show from flying off to whimsy land (AKA Olive’s missionary. Seriously, what the fuck?)
The missionary story line with Olive was hysterical. I particuraly the sudden arrival of The Poor or comparing being a nun to a gym membership. Great stuff.
Best line:
“Momma was a Methodist and Daddy was Pragmatist, so I knew ‘God pt those bees there for a reason.’”
Btw, the show did HORRIBLE with ratings. Biggest drop off from season to season.
