Shannon & White Push Some Daisies

Just when I think I can't possibly flip for Pushing Daisies any more, Joe sends me this link and my head explodes into a hurricane of dandelion seeds, pie crusts, and Grace Kelly inspired head-wraps. Via there:

"Funny lady Molly Shannon ("Saturday Night Live")... is making a guest appearance on the November 28 episode of ABC's whimsical procedural "Pushing Daisies" titled "Bitter Sweets."...

A vindictive taffy shop owner (Shannon as Dilly Balsam) sets up shop down the street from The Pie Hole, determined to drive Ned out of business by any means necessary. Writer/actor Michael White ("The School of Rock," "The Good Girl") guest stars as Dilly's brother, Billy."

For some reason, that link calling him Michael White instead of Mike White threw me off and it wasn't until I spotted him in the myriad of shots from the episode that the link has that I realized, with said head-explosion, who they meant.

Mike White and Molly Shannon as vindictive taffy shop owning siblings!!! It's like Year of the Dog swallowed itself and spat itself back up on top of my current favorite show. I mean that as a good thing. It's the the greatest FYC ad EVER. Here are a couple other shots from that link:

ETA I just thought I'd mention that I almost has an epileptic fit from laughter during Wednesday night's episode when Emerson had the Vertigo dream sequence. Anybody else love that? KILLED me.

About that Vertigo sequence, at first I thought, "Okay, this looks weirdly fake even for 'Pushing Daisies'--then I realized what they were doing and about choked on my pizza. Hilarious.
