I hate this world.
So the Pushing Daisies ratings are in and they're horrible. Fuck.
I thought I was over being worried about the ratings last year, it did alright but now...6.3 million viewers overall, 2 million 18-49, 1.7 18-34. To have a decent chance at renewal, they need at least 3.5 million for 18-49. What is wrong with the world? You can blame it on marketing/promotion or the world in terms of how can people not watch such a perfect show but either way it really sucks. I feel so powerless like nothing I can do can change this and I really, really, really don't want to lose this show. I'll willingly work in a save our show campaign, it does feel like The Office in early S2 with no one seeing it but I don't have a lot of hope it'll work.
I'm seriously crying about this. I fell in love with the show again last night and I love it more than almost anything else. It's like this beautiful, fantasy, imaginative world that I can go into, a wonderful fairytale like the books of my youth. I wish I could live there sometimes, it's that perfect. It has one of the most romantic, charming couples I've ever seen that make me smile so much that it warms my heart, the most brilliant and witty dialogue, the most original and uniquely decorative sets ever, funny and delightful characters, singing and musical references and a dark, mysterious edge. Basically, EVERYTHING. It's made of hearts and flowers and love and pretty and I want to keep it safe so no one can hurt it. This must be what Firefly felt like. God, I'd give up all my other shows minus The Office to keep this show on air. It's not fair! It's only had a half a season, at least SGA got five seasons.
I don't want to lose my show :(
