Our friend at Entertainment Weekly, Michael Ausiello, has released a couple of exciting Pushing Daisies spoilers.

• Taylor Townsend herself (pictured, from The OC), Autumn Reeser, will guest star in the season premiere. She'll play a Southern Belle named Kentucky Fritz that has a deadly run-in with some killer bees.
  

"She's the number one girl at Betty's Bees, who may or may not have been up to some mischief when she was stung to death by a swarm of bees," said Daisies creator Bryan Fuller.

• Pushing Daisies is casting the role of Emerson's no-nonsense, chain-smoking mom. Get this: she's gonna be Caucasian!
