E! Online got Pushing Daisies creator Bryan Fuller to answer some of our burning questions:

1. There will be more singing. Specifically, Aunt Vivian will sing some Cat Stevens in episode 1.07.

2. Paul Reubens is on set now, filming his first episode.  His character, though not the one originally cast, will be recurring, especially during the latter part of the season.

3. Ned’s touch ONLY affects dead (or formerly dead) people, not the living.

4. Ned can touch dead (or formerly dead) people though fabric (or Saran Wrap) with no ill effects; it has to be skin-on-skin  contact to affect them.

5. Pushing Daisies is set in “Pushing Daisies time” which is basically now but with some retro thrown in.
