Pushing Daisies Among Fall TV Shows In Trouble

Critically acclaimed TV dramedy "Pushing Daisies," about a pie maker who can revive the dead, is among several TV shows projected to be canceled this season. "Pushing Daisies" premiered on October 3, 2007,and was nominated for 15 Emmy Awards the following summer. Season 2 debuted on October 1, 2008, but ratings have fallen every week, and ABC may have no choice but to drop it.

Other shows getting the boot: Fox sitcom "Do Not Disturb," starring Jerry O'Connell, was canceled after just 3 episodes. Ditto for Ashton Kutcher produced game show "Opportunity Knocks." "Valentine" and "Easy Money," which air back-to-back Sunday nights on CW, are also rumored to be on the chopping block.
