The contestants, called runners, basically have to stay uncaptured for 60 minutes, and then be the first to find the hidden exit to win $25,000. Then there are the...

Pushing Daisies The Best TV Show you aren’t watching. I’d have to say that Pushing Daisies is the best show on TV right now. Awesome, fantastical, whimsical, magical, strange, storybook murder mystery goodness. And funny and rediculously silly at times too. Go watch it. It airs on Wednesdays at 8 ET on ABC.
