ABC not picking up PUSHING DAISIES, DIRTY SEXY MONEY, or ELI STONE

gravestoneI was a bit too sad to talk about this yet yesterday afternoon when I heard the news that, officially, the “back-9 options” for 3 of ABC’s most interesting and well done shows were not picked up.  Yes, folks, we will only get 13 episodes of PUSHING DAISIES, DIRTY SEXY MONEY, and ELI STONE this season.  That is, if we see them all. 

And that’s not to say I didn’t see this coming, but still.  It sucks, because they are some serious can’t miss TV shows.  What will I do without my Frere Piemaker fix each week?

PUSHING DAISIES creator (and genius man) Bryan Fuller is telling people like E!’s Kristin Dos Santos that he’s looking for options to finish the series in a comic book or movie format!  I would totally be first in line for either!

What’s your take?
