Pushing Daisies: The Snook Look
Style and Pushing Daisies go together like an alive-again Mom and apple pie. The visuals of this fantasy-comedy wonderland were superb: the show created a unique world that combined vintage with modern, and dressed noir drama in neon colors and eccentric patterns. Their Emmy wins in makeup, art direction and costume design were definitely well-deserved, as was Kristin Chenoweth’s win for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. Congratulations all around!
