When Pushing Daisies launched in 2007, TV Guide's Matt Roush declared it to be "unquestionably my favorite pilot," and in 2008, the series was nominated for 12 Emmy awards, winning three. But this exercise in dark whimsy about a crime-solving piemaker and his bevy of eccentric friends saw its ratings suffer due to a writers' strike during its first truncated season, and it never quite regained its momentum during the second. ABC will be airing the final three episodes of Pushing Daisies starting May 30th. Those familiar with the show already know why they should tune in, but just in case you haven't yet caught this quirky show, here's everything you need to get up to speed.

But one blog posted a comment about how we write interviews we’ve conducted, and that made me realize that it’s time for a “Why Do You Do That?” column, touching on some of the eccentricities of Airlock Alpha. Whenever you write up an interview, why do you always say “told Airlock …

When Fox scheduled the pilot for Ronald D. Moore’s “Virtuality” series to air on July 4 — not only a Saturday, but a holiday — it was believed this show was as good as dead. But not so fast. Fox has apparently decided to spare the series, and it’s believed that plans are made to put additional episodes into production. “We got the word that a show we through was dead is now on the fast track,” said Doug Drexler, the CG supervisor for the pilot, wrote in his blog. “It’s Ron Moore’s ‘Virtuality.’ It just goes to show you how this business goes. It was dead, dead, dead … now it’s alive, alive, alive … and they want it now, now now!” This is great news for Moore, who now will be heavily involved in two series that were originally left for dead. He’s currently in production for …

To the general television audience, most people wouldn’t know her from any other young, beautiful Scottish actress. But “Doctor Who” fans should remember her from an episode last season. That’s because for the third time, producers have looked to its past guest cast roles to pick a new companion for The Doctor, this time around being played by Matt Smith. And the winner this time? Try 21-year-old Karen Gillan. “When she auditioned alongside Matt we knew we had something special,” said Piers Wenger, head of drama at BBC Wales, which produces the iconic series. Gillan doesn’t have a lot of acting credits to her name outside of a handful of British shows. But she did appear as the Soothsayer in the Season 4 episode “The Fires of Pompeii,” and apparently impressed the production team even …
