http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/11/PUSHING-DAISIES----Dummy.aspx Ned (Lee Pace) is a pie maker who can bring dead things back to life with one touch. One touch more and the formerly dead thing becomes dead forever. Ned discovered this gift just before his mother died so he brought her back. If the “Alive Again” one stays alive longer than a minute, then something else must die. In his mother’s case, her staying alive takes the life of his childhood sweetheart, Chuck (she’s a girl named Chuck). Now as an adult he saves Chuck (Anna Friel) by making her alive again after she is murdered. He is in love and finds hope, but he can never touch her or she will die. Such is the premise for PUSHING DAISIES. And Ned works with a private investigator (Chi McBride) solving murders by awakening the dead and asking who killed them. The caper for the second episode is to find out who killed aeronautic engineer Bernard Slaybeck. He was working on the car of the future and was the apparent victim of a hit and run. When he is awoken by Ned, Chuck butts in and asks if he has any last requests. “Tell Janine from Promotions I always loved her.” When finally asked who hit him, he replies, “I wasn’t hit by a car. I was killed by a crash test dummy.” And time ran out and the team had to actually detect to solve the mystery. en-US Critics Rant info@criticsrant.com Subtext Version 1.9.4.0 http://www.criticsrant.com/images/default_gravatar_bullhorn.png http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/11/PUSHING-DAISIES----Dummy.aspx 77 60 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/11/PUSHING-DAISIES----Dummy.aspx#1744 i liked it funny:) tinkluvspan http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/11/PUSHING-DAISIES----Dummy.aspx#1744 Fri, 12 Oct 2007 12:09:14 GMT http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/11/PUSHING-DAISIES----Dummy.aspx#1978 it is really dumb WAVELYN http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/11/PUSHING-DAISIES----Dummy.aspx#1978 Fri, 02 Nov 2007 04:01:17 GMT
