Here’s the plot synopsis from IMDB which actually sums it up pretty well!:
“Ned possesses the unique talent of being able to bring the dead to life merely by touching them. However, the person may remain alive only for one minute, or else someone else dies for them. A second touch will render the person dead again, unable to be revived. Through his connections with PI Emerson Cod, Ned revives his childhood sweetheart, Chuck. The trio, aided occasionally by Olive Snook, helps solve the mysteries of various murders, whose murderer is often surprising.”
The problem with the show Pushing Daisies? ITS NOT ON ANYMORE! This was an amazing show that had the quirk, humor, & romance that appealed across the board. When my parents, my husband, & I all jump on board a show I know its a winner.
If I drew you a Venn diagram you’d plainly see:
You getting the picture? I mean, its not easy. Pushing Daisies is definitely a show to check out if you find yourself flipping through Netflix. You’ll fall for the pie maker, see his strangely wonderful love story with Chuck, give Emerson Cod a pat on the back, & to befriend the crazy that is Olive. Without giving anything away, this show has all kinds of twists & turns while still staying on plot. Then, they killed it. Luckily the brilliant creators ended this show right instead of leaving us hanging so if that usually turns you off of trying a new show, fear not.
Did you watch Pushing Daisies? What are some other “quirky shows” you’ve enjoyed & recommend?

Charlotte ‘Chuck’ Charles: Yeah, well, luck pushed me first.
