Amazon.co.uk Review

Ignore the fact that ITV, bizarrely, decided to meddle with its UK transmission of Pushing Daisies by lopping out an entire episode. Instead, consider giving this box set a chance, which brings together every episode--fully in tact!--of one of the most interesting new shows to come out of the States.

The concept behind Pushing Daisies is quite simple, but unsurprisingly, it doesn’t take long before it gets more complicated. It follows Ned, a young man who discovers he can bring the dead back to life for a short period of time. Inevitably, he starts using his gift on humans, solving crime as he goes along. Yet things get far more troubled when he then brings the love of his life back from beyond the grave.

In lesser hands, Pushing Daisies could so easily have gone wrong. But in the mits of Bryan Fuller, the man who previously gave us the terrific Dead Like Me, it really does work. The concept gels exceptionally well--thanks also to a cast led by Lee Pace and Anna Friel--and it’s an unpredictable programme that you simply can’t help but enjoy. On the downside, this maiden series is just nine episodes long, and that’s a pity, but a promised second series--off the back of this first run--is a very welcome prospect. --Jon Foster



DVD Description

Bryan Fuller (the creator of Wonderfalls and Dead Like Me) is back with original and quirky Pushing Daisies. This forensic fairytale follows Ned (Lee Pace, Wonderfalls), a young man with a very special gift. As a boy, Ned discovered that he could return the dead briefly back to life with just one touch. Now a pie maker, Ned puts his ability to good use, not only touching dead fruit and making it ripe with everlasting flavour, but working with a private investigator to crack murder cases by raising the dead and getting them to name their killers. But the tale gets complicated when Ned brings his childhood sweetheart (Anna Friel, Goal), Chuck, back from the dead -- and keeps her alive. Chuck becomes the third partner in Ned and Emerson's private-investigation enterprise, encouraging them to use Ned's skills for good, not just for profit. Life would be perfect for Ned and Chuck, except for one cruel twist: if he ever touches her again, she'll go back to being dead, this time for good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, 26 Mar 2008
By Mr. B. Davis "Mars Investigations" (Wales, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fantastic series!

Due to the Writer's Strike in America, the first season is only nine episodes in length but it is enough to wet your appetite and for you to embrace this weird, colorful, dark, wonderful and magical world.

I won't summarise the show as that is done above efficiently by Amazon, but I will say that this show carries many a secret, and is just wonderful all round.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just pre-order it now!, 13 Mar 2008
By Dillan Gandhi (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews
The best new series to come out of the US, and a successful one too. Season Two was ordered a few weeks ago.

Without boring you, the show is funny, witty, dry, dark and magical. Wonderful is probably the best word to describe it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dazzling, 2 Mar 2009
By Toni Virtanen (Riihimäki, Finland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This show is in one word unique. I've never seen anything quite like it.
It is at the same time hilarious and ironic, but it has a point all the way through! I really enjoy wathing it.

It's a shame that the box doesn't have any exstras, otherwise this is a magnificent product.
