BURBANK, CA (April 1, 2009) - The most dazzling flower blooming in the TV-on-DVD landscape this summer promises to be Pushing Daisies, whose second season is set for release July 21, 2009 on both DVD and Blu-ray™ hi-def from Warner Home Video (WHV). Titled Pushing Daisies: The Complete Second Season, this Emmy® Award-winning series follows the unusual story of Ned, a young pie maker who’s able to revive the dead. This DVD will feature all 13 delightful episodes from this clever and imaginative show, as well as a generous helping of never-before-seen bonus features. This release will retail for $39.98 SRP (standard DVD) and $49.99 SRP (Blu-ray).

The plot thickens with a delicious mix of secrets and mysteries in Season Two of Pushing Daisies. Olive Snook (Tony® Award winner Kristin Chenoweth) joins a convent in order to keep Lily’s (Emmy® winner Swoosie Kurtz) secret about Chuck’s (Anna Friel) real birth mother. Chuck becomes more independent and moves out of Ned’s (Lee Pace) apartment. Ned learns he has identical twin half-brothers and also receives news of his estranged father. Detective Emerson Cod (Chi McBride) secretly yearns for his long lost daughter. Chuck does her best to dodge her aunts, Lily and Vivian (Tony® Award nominee Ellen Greene), who don’t know she’s alive. Meanwhile, Lily and Vivian wrangle over a mystery man.

During Season Two, the group’s murder-solving escapades take them to the most unlikely places to solve some of the weirdest cases, including a honey-based cosmetics company where a spokesmodel is found stung to death; a circus where people keep turning up dead; a convent where a truffle-savvy nun is murdered; a Dim Sum restaurant that serves up illegal gambling; a magic castle whose main attraction dies during his act and even a lighthouse to investigate the death of its keeper.

Originally created by Bryan Fuller (Dead Like Me, Wonderfalls, Heroes), Pushing Daisies follows the whimsical story of Ned, a handsome, wistful pie maker who can resuscitate the dead with his touch.

However, there is a caveat to his talent. If something he’s revived remains living for more than one minute, then something nearby of similar life value will die. If he touches the resurrected a second time, that life will die permanently - a stipulation which proves to be a great strain when Ned resurrects his beautiful childhood sweetheart, Charlotte “Chuck” Charles. The results are bittersweet as they attempt to carry on a romantic relationship, and Ned is left traumatized by both his gift and his unfulfilled longing for Chuck.

Ned owns a restaurant called the Pie Hole, which he runs with kooky, lovelorn waitress Olive Snook. To earn extra money, Ned strikes a deal with the gruff but lovable private investigator Emerson Cod in which they temporarily bring murder victims back to life in order to inquire about the circumstances of their death. They use the information to solve their cases and collect reward money.

The series is narrated by Jim Dale (Harry Potter audio books). Among the guest stars featured in Season Two are French Stewart, Autumn Reeser, Diana Scarwid, David Arquette, Jennifer Elise Cox, Stephen Root, Wendie Malick and others.

“Pushing Daisies is a remarkable series, unlike anything we’ve recently had the pleasure to experience on television. It’s incredibly entertaining, with its visually stunning look, sharp dialogue, heart-touching and soulful storylines and immensely talented cast,” said Rosemary Markson, WHV Vice President, TV & Special Interest Marketing. She added, “This show bravely broke the rules of traditional TV and became a true standout series, praised by critics and viewers alike. This DVD will truly be a gem in anyone’s home entertainment library.”

Pushing Daisies originally premiered October 3, 2007 on ABC and aired for two seasons. The show earned three Golden Globe Award nominations, including Best Television Series. It was nominated for 12 Emmy Awards® and won three.

Pushing Daisies’ final, unaired episodes are going to see the light of day — just not necessarily on television.

The canceled series’ three remaining eps will be presented during April’s Paley Television Festival in Los Angeles. Closure for fans of the show, as well as those of its fellow ABC casualties Eli Stone and Dirty Sexy Money, has been elusive, with finales for each awaiting air dates — if they’re ever set.

Last month, ABC exec Stephen McPherson said the scheduling door for the final episodes was still open, telling TVGuide.com that finding programming “real estate” was a challenge.

For the moment, Paley fest attendees will be the only lucky audience to see Daisies’ final hours, with a screening set for Sunday, April 19 at 1 pm at Hollywood’s ArcLight Cinema. Further sweetening the deal will be series creator and executive producer Bryan Fuller, on hand to introduce the event.

While neither Money nor Eli will be featured, other April Paley panels will include network sib Desperate Housewives, as well as Battlestar Galactica, Dollhouse and Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog. (You can get Paley’s full schedule here.)

Do you think Daisies’ festival screening will affect its chances at arriving on TV?

Bad news and very good news for Pushing Daisies fans, straight from star Kristin Chenoweth: The final episodes, when and if they eventually air, won’t resolve all of the plotlines on the show — but show creator Bryan Fuller has an idea for a movie that would.

“It would wrap up a lot of the unanswered questions that people will have once they finally air our final episodes,” the singer-actress told TVGuide.com.

And is Fuller pushing ABC to air those episodes?

“It’s way too good to push on somebody,” she said. “You either air it and let the world see it or — you know, that show, I’m sorry if it sounds arrogant, but it’s the best thing ever.”

Fuller himself hinted at the possibility at a recent appearance at the Paley Center for Media in Beverly Hills, where he also talked about his longstanding idea of resolving the story in comic-book form.

If the movie goes ahead, Chenoweth says she’s in — and she believes her Daisies castmates would be as well.

“I’m sure that Bryan Fuller wouldn’t do it without the six main characters,” she said. “Paul Reubens was a big part of it — we have certain guest stars that are standouts that we’d want back. But he has such a great idea for it. … We all want to.”

Fuller is returning to Heroes, his former show, and has written a part for Daisies alum Swoozie Kurtz.

Chenoweth, meanwhile, is moving on to David E. Kelley new legal pilot, Legally Mad.

“My character is Skippy Pylon — I love the name — she’s the smartest lawyer in the firm, but she’s insane. She’s crazy. So it’ll be very different from Olive. It’s also going to be very fun for me to play that kind of part — someone who will just let a judge have it.”

“The Norwegians“- When Emerson turns down Vivian’s request to look into the sudden disappearance of Dwight Dixon (Stephen Root), she turns to another PI team, lead by Emerson’s bitter rival, Magnus Olsdatter (guest star Orlando Jones). Magnus and his cohorts are relentless Norwegian gumshoes, ejected from their own country, whose snooping may reveal all of Ned’s and Chuck’s secrets.
