A major topic of debate in our forum has been the floundering Pushing Daisies ratings. Has the show's uniqueness worn off? Or is this just a sign of general television malaise?

Consider this week's figures and statements from Mediaweek:

"There was nothing overly positive of note in the Wednesday 8 p.m. hour, with ABC's critically acclaimed Pushing Daisies leading at a below-average 8.88 million viewers and a 3.1 rating/9 share among adults 18-49."

Not a terrible showing. But what do you think: Does Pushing Daisies have staying power?
