New to DVD: Pushing Daisies Season 2

New to DVD: "Pushing Daisies Season 2" (the final season)
This is one of my all time favorite shows and I was brokenhearted when it got canceled. I feel like if it had a better time slot (I always watched it online, because I was always busy at 8 p.m.) it would have had a better fan base.
If you haven’t seen it:
The Pie Maker, Ned (Lee Pace, The Good Shepherd) discovered when he was a boy that if he touches something dead it comes back to life, but as he discovered with his mom, if he touches it twice it’ll die, for good. So Ned has grown up, become the pie maker and to finance his bakery he solves murders on the side with private detective Emerson (Chi McBride, "Boston Public"). He touches the corpse and asks them who killed them and collects the reward money, simple enough. Life was going pretty fine for Ned until the next corpse turned out to be the first girl he ever kissed, Charlotte "Chuck" Charles (Anna Friel, Land of the Lost). Ned being Ned, he couldn’t put Chuck back to being dead, so someone else died in her place. Chuck comes to live with Ned above the pie shop and everything would be perfect, except they can’t touch and everyone who knew her thinks she’s dead. Why I Love This Show:
Everyone loves a good Romeo and Juliet story, but the show is so much more than that. The time period in which it takes place is never completely laid out, it’s modern, but with a twist. There are hybrids and classic cars and the clothes look like they’re from the fifties. Also along with the sweet narration and art direction there is a certain amount of fairy tale elements to the program.
The acting is also fantastic and sweet. You definitely are pulling for Ned and Chuck (and praying that they don’t bump into one another), but there is also poor Olive (Kristen Chenoweth, Broadway’s "Wicked") the pie waitress longing for Ned. Also, Ellen Greene and Swoosie Kurtz (Reality Bites) are hilarious as the former famous synchronized swimmers turned agoraphobic aunts that raised Chuck. Basically, this show was different and it was special, but if you missed it the first time around now there’s the magic of dvd to let you experience this great series, so go rent it!
