Wednesday’s top picks: Pushing Daisies is worth watching tonight, if only because it will provide an opportunity to use the phrase “undercover nuns.” ABC, 9:00 As much as I’m ready to give up on Project Runway, I’ll still be watching tonight’s finale. Bravo, 9:00 Share This

I knew I’d been busy and distracted lately, but it was only when I realized that I’d missed Pop Vultures first birthday, back in late September, that I knew things had gotten out of hand.
