It's been 6 years and i'm still mad that Pushing Daisies got cancelled way too soon.
The fantasy, comedy, drama was created by Bryan Fuller, who is also the brain behind shows like Wonderfalls and Hannibal.
Pushing Daisies tells the story of Ned the Pie Maker who has an incredible gift (other than being able to bake delicious pies), he can bring the dead back to life with a slight touch of his finger-BUT only for a minute, and if they just so happen to stay alive for over 60 seconds then someone nearby will drop dead in their place. Ned learnt this the hard way when he brought his mother back from the dead as a young boy, which then accidentally killed his childhood sweethearts dad.
As a man, Ned learns to use his power to solve mysteries with his partner in crime Emerson and then collect the rewards afterwards. All is well until the day he runs into his childhood sweetheart Chuck, dead in her casket.
