Immediately following the Pushing Daisies panel, the stars of the show were ushered down to the exhibit hall for an hour-long signing session in the Warner Brothers booth. Although I appreciate that they wanted to have a crowd at the booth and to be able to show the stars in the big screens up above, the end result was choked aisles and a generally clogged mass of sometimes cantankerous folks. You can see the swarm around Lee Pace in the second picture below:
The signing line was already closed when we arrived, most likely filled by people who had failed to line up two hours in advance (!) to get into the panel. Even some of those who were turned away from the panel didn't make it into the line. littlestar was initially disappointed, but we hung around the booth anyway, diving in for pictures every so often, until WB and convention security flushed people away from the signing area (and then repeating this cycle several times for the next hour). Following the one-hour signing period, Lee Pace came over to the waiting crowd of people who hadn't made it into the line, said hello, posed for some pictures, and signed some things despite being told not to.
The Daisies crowd was then ushered upstairs for a series of interviews and a bit of general taking in of the convention floor from above.
After the interviews, Lee came down into the crowd again at a fan's request, signing some more things and hanging out as long as his handlers would let him, before the whole group was ushered off one final time.
