So TWoP has this list of agonizing pop culture dilemmas up (based on the premise of The Box: you get a million dollars if you push the button, but someone you don't know dies), and this is one of them:

If you could press a button to get another three seasons of Pushing Daisies, but it meant that Glee would get cancelled... would you?

Look, I like Glee with all of its faults, but HOMIGOD YES YES YES YES YES YES and a thousand million trillion more YESes after that. Give me back my piemaker and my Little Bit.

Also, there's this one:

If you could press a button to guarantee Chuck four more seasons, but it meant that he and Sarah would never be together ... would you?

If they made a point of saying they would never be together, rather than cocktease for four years, then yes, I would hit that button so hard it got pregnant with quadruplets.

Oh, and TWoP?

If you could press a button to bring Heath Ledger back to life, but The Dark Knight would never have existed... would you?

I refuse to answer that question because just reading it made me stupider. Yes, give me back Heath Ledger, for fuck's sake.

30 comments in the one day your journal has existed, and a random non-identified link? That's not suspicious at aaaallllllllll.

Heh. Yeah, I took a moment to be all, "Whee, I got spammed!" I don't think I've ever gotten spammed on here before.

Aaaaand gone. :D

I actually have internal organs I'd trade to get Pushing Daisies back. And hmmm, let me think: I get to keep Dark Knight or Matilda Ledger gets her daddy back? Decisions, decisions ...

WHAT. Who would even ASK THAT about an ACTUAL PERSON. There are not enough pogo sticks or tap shoes for all the "Jesus Christs" I need to say.

I KNOW. You know, I think I can live without a freaking movie so that Matilda Ledger can have her daddy back.

The depressing thing is that there are probably people out there who think The Dark Knight was worth it. And, uh...

It's an awesome movie. I'm a huge geek, I love superhero movies, and I love The Dark Knight probably more than any of them. But I'd give up the entire Godfather trilogy to save John Cazale, and I'd give up Christian Bale's entire career to save Heath Ledger. Seriously, no art is worth dying for.

Farreal. I'd give up the next ten years of nothing coming out, no concerts, nothing but rereleases of the eighties ad nauseum, and annoying as hell jokes to have Michael Jackson back.

Oh, seriously. I'm not the biggest Michael Jackson fan in the world but, hell, take Thriller back if it means Paris Jackson never had to stand up at her daddy's funeral.

I would jump up and down on the first button. A lot. A looooot.

The fact that this poll exists, but its results never will, makes a PD-less Wednesday night all the more bittersweet.

I don't think whoever came up with that last question is actually human.

Oh, have we already moved past respectful mourning and shock into TOSSING HIS NAME INTO A STUPID QUIZ, in competition with the existence of A MOVIE, ffs?!

I hate the world.

HOW IS THIS EVEN A QUESTION? Jesus tapdancing Christ, people.

But also IA sooooooooooooo much about Chuck. Much as I love Chuck and Sarah, they could find an equally awesome someone for Chuck and I would adore four more seasons of that show. Or Chuck and Casey could be boyfriends, I think I could live with that. XD

1. HELL TO THE YES. I couldn't get enough of Pushing Daisies and it is a sin it only made it to a second season. Give it three seasons, a proper ending, and I would be happier than Dianna Agron and Lea Michele coming to my door in a trenchcoat.

2. That, I think, would be a dealbreaker for me. Much as I can't say I'm a Charah shipper, the idea of a six-season-long blueballer is a bit much. Maybe under your conditions.

3. Yeah, WTF is about the only proper reply to that question. Movie versus a human life. Seriously?
