Its late so I not going to make this a long post. I'm just going to say that I have a new favorite television show. It might possibly be my favorite television show ever, but I won't make that statement yet. What is the show you might be asking. Well it is Pushing Up Daisies. I wrote about this last week, but I was no where near as excited as I am tonight. And I'll tell you why. Not only does it have a very quirky premise. Not only does it have fantastic lines. Not only does it have this fantastical setting. Not only does it have Broadway actors. Tonight, it also had singing. Yes I said it, singing. Kristen Chenoweth--she is a wonderful Broadway actress: Galenda in Wicked, Sally in You're a Good Many Charlie Brown, and many more. She was also Leo's assistant on the last season of The West Wing.--sang Hopelessly Devoted to You from Grease. And not just a couple of lines. The entire freakin' song. Oh my God. This show is what would result if Picket Fences and Fame had done the horizontal mambo and nine months later had a bouncing baby dramedy. It is very Desperate Housewives (1st Season) meets Ugly Betty meets Six Feet Under.
Now my fear is that it is so good that no one is going to watch it. So this is my plea. If you watch television give this show a chance. If for no other reason than to help me out. Not the actors and the writers, etc. No me. I need to have a show that I love this much. (Seriously, I need a man I love this much.) I hope to one day be as evangelical about Jesus as I am about this show.
Alright, I've said enough for now.
Peace out

I don't have a TV, but I'm going to see if my mom can TiVO it so I can watch it whenever I'm at her house. I'll support you! Besides that, I think it's VERY possible that you will recognize your lifelong mate when you discover it is also HIS favorite show of all-time. I'll dream with you, OK? As for the evangelical about Jesus part -- I thought it was interesting last night when I had some church members tell me they were so impressed by my explanation of the new "mall" and Panera in Sebring that they were going to go. I told them -- if only I could be so evangelical about Jesus! Again, like minds. What was that we've said about being twins?
I watched the last half of Daisy last night and loved it, though maybe not as much as you. I firmly believe that anything with Kristin Chenoweth is worth the time and effort it takes to view it, ESPECIALLY when she sings Hopelessly Devoted to You!
Now here's my question, my husband (named "hotty" by you) also liked the show and LOVES Kristin Chenoweth. Is this the man you've been waiting for? Well I'll tell you what I have to tell all my gay friends -- He's straight and he's mine! So eat you heart out! :)
