A Show You Must See
10/04/2007

I rarely talk about television shows here, unless it is to complain how trite they are. Anyone see “Pushing Daisies”? This is an amazingly clever and well-written show by Barry Sonnenfeld. I have to agree with Variety that is one of the best new shows on television. I also hope that it gets quite a following. I have found that any show I really love ends up canceled. This show is one of those that may not appeal to the masses. It certainly has a Tim Burton feel. Think of Burton’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory for the setting. Vibrant, bright colors everywhere. A somewhat surreal feel to the action. Then there’s the odd premise of the guy who can bring people back to life if he touches them, but if he touches them again, they die. I loved this show. The dialogue is snappy. The jokes land just right. The cast is perfect. In case you missed the show, you can watch it on ABC.com.
