Pushing Daisies is a forensic fairy tale.
Confused already? Give us a chance to explain.
The quirky ABC drama focuses on Ned (Lee Pace), a piemaker with a mysterious ability to help the dead come alive. Sounds cool, right?
It is, but such a gift is not without its complications: if Ned touches this being a second time, he or she will die again. With no chance to be resurrected.
Also, if he or she live for more than 60 seconds, somebody else nearby will die. The show dubs this "a random proximity thing").
Ned tried to use this talent for good, as he helps a private investigator friend (Emerson Cod), along with his own childhood sweetheart, the once-dead Charlotte "Chuck" Charles.
Got all that? Good.
Now sit back and watch this series come to life.
