Countless Screaming Argonauts—10:58 PM
On tonight's Pushing Daisies, Kristin Chenoweth is quoting TMBG lyrics.
When Blade: Trinity came out, Arkise imagined its producers assembled around a table trying to devise a movie that he, personally, would be powerless to avoid seeing. With Ryan Reynolds and half a Christopher Guest movie already in the cast, they were getting close. Then someone chimed in, "Let's add [pro wrestler] Triple-H," and sealed the deal.
Tonight's Pushing Daisies caused me to imagine a similar meeting, with myself as the demographic of one. The guy who selected Kristin Chenoweth in the first place, eager to atone for that error, probably suggested They Might Be Giants. A bit of an overcompensation, but he's eager to make good. If only he knew that she'd already begun winning me over on her own. (She fits much better in the Pushing Daisies universe than the West Wing universe. Or ours.)
Still and all, thanks, guy! Keep up the good work! I eagerly await Amy Adams cameo week!
