New Merlin quest is up, I'm so glad they seem to have gone back to Friday nights! Anyway, still on my iPod, so here's a link to the embedded vid via the shapingdestiny post

Dude. Dude. Pushing Daisies is MAGICAL. So, there's Ned, right (HELLO LEE PACE, YOU ARE ADORABLE), the pie maker, and he can touch dead things and bring them back to life. If he touches the thing again though, it dies and stays dead for good. Enter Chuck (HELLO ANNA FRIEL, YOU ARE ADORABLE), his childhood sweetheart, who gets killed on vacation. Ned, who works in cahoots with a Private Detective on the side (easy to solve crimes and get a cash reward if you can wake the victim and ask who did it), is tasked to find out who killed her, so he wakes her up but finds he doesn't want to let her die again because HELLO TRUE LOVE, you know. So yeah, they are in love but they can never touch. And I know it sounds angsty but surprisingly, it's not overblown. It's lovely and a little bit dark and a lot bit sassy (think 30's/40's sass with the fast talking and the OUTFITS) and it's a bit like the film Amelie what with the whimsy and the fairytale feel and THE COLOURS, Jenn, you will want to lick your screen, I'm not even kidding.

It's only two seasons long, watch it, watch it, watch it.
