i have to say and when push daisy come out i be immediately win out by the fairy tale like set of such grimness . the narrator make a cake out of the whole ordeal by make death seem as routine a and well and ned ( lee pace ) baking pie . and that bring them back to life be just a routine . the trio of ned and emerson cod ( chi mcbride ) and charlotte chuck charles ( anna friel ) and plus sometimes sidekick olive snook ( kristin chenoweth and who make the musical wicked such a delight ) make for some fantastic dialogue and silliness . it definitely deserve the title of a ( romantic ) comedy or drama . ned and chuck make for a shy and not quite ready for love couple who be still explore their feeling even though they can not touch an obstacle that seem to be truly no obstacle with aid such a glove and cellophane and and quirky schedule around the apartment . but despite the awkwardness present a they work their feeling around a strange secret which only a few know and they still manage to show their on screen chemistry in touch scene like when ned give chuck the beehive . the presence of olive and though and make for some break out in song moment in the pie shop and unforeseen complication for the couple . second season sharply decline and put a damper on a show that have real potential . on some of the episode and the plot line be rush and awkward and make you ask what just happen . in both the overall dead person of the week plot and in the overriding plot line . the addition of chuck father plus two half brother for ned do not help and and at least one of the plot line felt almost recycle ( do not the episode comfort food feel like the episode bitter sweet in the fact that the dead person of the week die in food . ) . a few touching moment ( the beehive ) happen to help advance the relationship between chuck and ned and but every time they get close and the writer decide to throw in another monkey wrench rather than let the relation develop ( oliver come back from the monastery and chuck dead father come back to life and doesn not go back and you get the picture ) . shame it do not work out and but the concept be good and seem surreal in a good way and just enough pleasantvillesque color or happy smiley go on and implausible scenario to remind you that it not dead like me . then again and it in push daisy time and accord to creator bryan fuller and so it make it plausible again . it should have last longer and but it merely wistful thinking at this point . kudos to whatever new show attempt to replace this short live gem .
