SAD TIMES!!

So, ABC was really Stuh-yup-id a few days ago and cancelled "Pushing Daisies," along with a couple of other shows that I'm not really so fussed about. I don't know if any of you saw it, but it was a pretty good show, and I really liked it. If you've never seen it, it's about a man called Ned, known as "the pie maker," who has the ability to bring dead things back to life, which comes in handy when he finds out that his childhood sweetheart has been murdered. It was a) NOT reality b) quirky c) a innovative show with interesting plotlines and a great cast. It's a shame that they couldn't see through the less than average ratings to the critical acclaim and numerous emmy nods. Anyway, I think we should go all Arrested Development on their ass, and by that I mean that we should try and get as many people into it now that it's been cancelled so that it can achieve a cult following and ABC can see what eeeejits they were for stopping it so prematurely. So, if you've never seen it before, or you want to catch up on some episodes go here.

Much love. x

Surely, if you know me, or you know either Sydney Schoof or Petra Kelly (I'm assuming if you're reading this blog you know at least one of us... these are the only people that would listen to me-- or rather read me-- rant and rave) you know about the IT Crowd. From the awesome Irish mind of Graham Linehan, the man who has previously worked on such amazing shows as Big Train, Black Books, Father Ted, and the grossly underappreciated Hippies, is the show about a "dynamic go-getter, a genius, and a man from Ireland" who head up the IT department of a company that does.... something.
Anyhoodles, the 3rd season of this show will be airing over here on November 21, 2008 (get your youtube's ready!) and in honor of this and the fact that my dearest syd-roo has turned 21 I have listed some awesome clips below, AND I've listed links to the full episodes (in 3 parts). "Wow Sophie!" I hear you say, "You're pretty awesome, aren't you?" Why yes, yes I am.
