Pushing Daisies - I knew wouldn't make it more than a season - let alone two. You can thank the writer's strike for it's extended life or blame it for it's protracted one.
I don't think that completely follows, though. Since it is such an expensive show to film, if it weren't doing well enough last year to warrant a renewal, then why did they renew it? It seems like the writer's strike would have been a perfect excuse to simply not continue a show that wasn't doing well. Last year, it was enough of a hit to bring back and spend a lot of money on.
