UK to show Pushing Daisies finale before US - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

UK audiences will get to see the final episodes of Pushing Daisies before US viewers, following a decision by ITV to air the full series of the axed ABC drama.
Pushing Daisies, starring Anna Friel, was cancelled by US broadcaster ABC after the tenth episode of the final 13-part series was aired.

But an ITV spokesman said the broadcaster will continue to air the series, meaning UK audiences will be able to watch the final three episodes ahead of American fans.

Anna Friel is a big star in the UK so it makes sense - too bad they couldn't continue production of the series there, if it turns out to be a big hit.

and it sucks that they can't even release the S2 dvd until (if) ABC decides to burn off the final 3 episodes.
