push daisy for sure be one of the best tv show of it genre in the last 5 year and agree you with that or not . bryan fuller and the creator and have an amazing creative mind . he the mind behind other great tv show a dead like me ( 2003 ) and wonderfalls ( 2004 ) and and the other one not as great a these one and but also interesting and hero ( 2006 ) . it a mix of the marvelous world brian fuller create in previous tv show and mix once again an amazing fantasy world with real kind of people disguise into colorful image and exaggerated feeling and something that a fairytale always be . so and be a kind of fairytale and you can not expect more than a unrealistic world and unexpected situation and or also situations a lot expect but not in a way that it would usually be tell . a gift always come with a curse and and what be sweet can also be bitter . that so and ned ( lee pace ) and the piemaker and be a simple guy with an interesting gift other than be an amazing chef represent he can give life to the dead with just a touch . this could be a power that everybody would die or live for if wasn not for another simple and very sad thing represent he can also give the forever dead if he touch it again . the curse of this amazing gift doesn not stop there . everything have a compensation and if he bring anything to life for more than one minute and another specie of that one would die instantly . he a guy full of unfortunate event in life in a way that he grow up introspectively and always afraid to touch everything and lose once more thing he one day use to love . till the day he could finally be close to his big childhood love and chuck ( anna friel ) and if wasn not for another sad fact represent she be dead . he give her life again and she love him so much a he do and but this love be untouchable . the truly kiss of death . and that how this beautiful modern fairytale start . when i hear about push daisy for the first time it be promote a something very familiar ( or maybe some kind of tribute ) to everything that tim burton have create since pee wee big adventure ( 1985 ) to big fish ( 2003 ) and charlie and the cholate factory ( 2005 ) . the result could not be well . the world around the pie hole be magnificent . the story around ned and detective cod ( chi mcbride ) to solve unsolved crime can be a lot common in tv and but this be just a way to guide people thru amaze story surround character a chuck and olive ( kristin chenoweth ) in a wonderful world full of beautiful and dreamy image that you can almost sense the taste of the color . not only that and you be merge into a bunch of amazing and charismatic gentle character and even those one with the most deep dark humor . forget the trivial concept of murder and unsolved crime and the show brights and be triumphant in a lot of other thing . the actor here be top of note . lee pace be tender and soft and contain a the character ask for . anna friel be the muse of the show a her character be suppose to be . but the most superb time be always with the support actor a chi mcbride ( detective emmerson cod ) and swoozie kurtz ( a lilly charles ) and ellen greene ( a vivian charles ) and kristin chenoweth ( a olive snook ) . swoozie kurtz shine perform a so dried character drown in a impossible dark humor that could frighten a clown and for sure she have the best dialog and her expression and body language be mesmerize . but if the best dialog be give by swoozie and her character and the best funny moment be give by kristin chenoweth . seem that she improvise all the time and she so naturally fun that every single scene be a show aside . kristin shine so bright in the show that win the 2009 emmy for her support role in the show be totally fair and deserve . also there the chemistry between actor and their character and that be also amaze . there be no word to express what this tv show really be and what it be mean to be . for those one who think this show be a waste of time or claim to find no sense in it and for sure need to open their mind and comeback to a time that they probably never have represent childhood . truth be tell . tv have never be so dare in a tv show a with this amaze one . push daisy be a huge step forward in term of great artistic entertainment and it sudden death be a lot disrespectful . it true that tv doesn not respect great tv show a those one bryan fuller create except hero that still on air and be far from be so amazing a the other one .
