While fans are eagerly waiting for the second season of the Emmy-nominated series Pushing Daisies, ABC is gearing up to treat fans for a pie experience like never before. ABC is going to deliver the interactive experience of Ned’s bakery, the Pie Hole, to ten major markets across the United States. Viewers and guests who get to catch the tour bus will be treated to free pie and the homey goodness of the friendly restaurant staff, while basking in the show’s sunny set. The Pie Hole will also be decorated with balloons, posters and daisy decals on the floor.
More fun ensues when Pushing Daisies footage will be displayed on plasma TVs on the site, while the waitresses on daisy-decorated bicycles go around to lead the crowd to gather at the restaurant site prior to the event. Guests will also be treated to limited edition Pushing Daisies magnets, pie-cutters and spatulas.
This is the perfect treat for both fans and guests alike, as they will be fully immersed in a once in a lifetime experience in the fantastic world of Pushing Daisies. Additionally, a Pushing Daisies microsite will chart the mobile Pie Hole’s journeys and enable enthusiasts to send Pushing Daisies themed messages through PushingDaisiesTour.com.
The Pushing Daisies tour will kick off on August 31st in Anaheim, California’s Downtown Disney, then will head off to San Francisco on September 7 to be at the Ghirardelli Square Chocolate Festival. On September 10, Pushing Daisies will head to Los Angeles to be at Santa Monica 3rd Street Promenade and on September 12, they will be in Las Vegas, Nevada’s Fashion Show Mall. Heading over to Phoenix, Arizona on September 14th, the gang will be at Westgate Complex, followed by a stop at Larimer Square in Denver, Colorado on September 17th. The Pie Hole will then head to Dallas, Texas on September 20th to be at the Addison Oktoberfest, and on the 24th, they will be at Lincoln Park in Chicago, Illinois. September 26 will see them at the Shops at Liberty Place in Philadelphia, and their last stop will be in New York’s Time Square.
Peep the new season 2 promos for the fanciful ABC drama Pushing Daisies — Lee Pace as Ned, Anna Friel as Chuck, Chi McBride as Emerson, Ellen Greene as Vivian, Swoosie Kurtz as Lily and Kristin Chenoweth as Olive. Obviously, the main pic is an homage to the Sistine Chapel, where God’s right arm is outstretched to impart life from his own finger into that of Adam, whose left arm is extended in a pose mirroring God’s.
Pushing Daisies picked up an incredible 12 Emmy nominations. In the major acting categories, both Lee and Kristin were nominated. The Emmy Awards ceremony will be held on Sunday, September 21, 2008.
Watch the teaser trailer for the upcoming season below! Pushing Daises comes back to life this fall–the season premiere airs on Wednesday, October 1 at @ 8PM ET/PT on ABC.
Added 11 promos to the gallery. Beautiful ones, thanks to JustJared!
…Thewlis, brought up in Blackpool which features heavily in his book, wrote The End on the final page of the first draft seven years ago, went out to celebrate with a mate and met Anna Friel. They’ve been together ever since.
‘The attraction was something simple really in that we were from the same part of the world, from Lancashire,’ he says.
‘There was something very familiar about her. She was like the girls I’d grown up with. Before Anna, I’d had a few relationships and I’m glad I’ve been around a bit. I know where it’s gone wrong or know who are the wrong people for me and who I might be wrong for.
‘I’d had a relationship with a French girl, a Japanese girl, an American girl, a Filippina and she was there all the time - a Lancashire girl. I thought: “It’s a Lancashire girl I was looking for. Why didn’t I realise it?”
‘Before that night, Anna and I had actually met on an aeroplane going to Cannes. Channel 4 was flying out what they said were 20 of the most prominent actors of the time - it was about 1995 - to promote the British film industry.
‘Everyone was there - Jude Law, Kate Winslet, Rachel Weisz. It was weird because some people you knew and some you didn’t. I sat there thinking: “We’re all very famous on this plane. If this goes down there will be an awful lot of happy equity members.”‘

A bit late, but here we go. July 26 was the Pushing Daisies day at 2008 San Diego Comic-Con. The whole cast was there, and I haven’t read anything yet, but I found two articles with some hints about season two:
Pushing Daisies (2008) 
Bathory (2008)
Land of the Lost (2008)
Angel Makers (2009)
