This show is magical. I thought it was going to be another show kind of like CSI or Law and Order with a supernatural element in it - or maybe more along the lines of Psych, where some random guy is helping the police solve crimes. But it's not really like that at all. It's more like... well, like Amelie, or Big Fish, or something similar with that magical realism aspect. The characters are all endearing and wonderful, and I like the narrator. It's cute and funny and very imaginative - nice to have a murder mystery solving type show that isn't exactly like the other eight million murder mystery shows that have existed in the past.
And, Ned, the main character, is a pie maker. Which makes me think of the most wonderful movie ever made - Waitress. So more or less, Pushing Daisies is a combination of Amelie and Waitress - my two favorite movies that don't have a superhero in it.
