Do cancelled shows win Emmy Awards often?

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) – For a show about resurrecting dead people with a touch, ABC’s “Pushing Daisies” saved a little magic for its own afterlife on Sunday.

Touched by the Emmys, the canceled series came to life to collect four statuettes, including one for Kristin Chenoweth as best supporting actress in a comedy.

…Just how big was “Daisies’” feat? With Chenoweth’s victory on Sunday night and three other wins at the September 12 Creative Arts Emmys, the show, canceled in November, ranked fourth among all programs. It wound up with one fewer Emmy than reigning comedy champ “30 Rock” and tied with TV’s top-rated “American Idol” and the Academy Awards.

My wife and I really enjoyed that show. Seems a little strange, though, doesn’t it? To win after you get cancelled?
