I watch TV occasionally. I don’t watch much network tv, its usually pretty bad. I have no wish to watch the night time soaps or “dramas.” They usually have no scripts that are compelling to me.
Last week a co worker told me about a show that was coming on tv that looked like it would be something that I would be interested in. ABC has a new show called Pushing Daisies. I checked it out last week and DH & I were amused. Its got a stylized look and a smart sense of humor. The premise of the show is that the main character Ned can bring back someone or something to life from the dead. But there’s a couple of gotchas to this little talent. If the returned to life person or critter stays alive more than a minute, some one or thing else has to die. And the main character cannot touch that person or thing again, otherwise they/it are dead again permanently.
We watched the second episode tonight. It is a very funny but dark show. We both enjoyed it. There are some really entertaining bits to it, but an appreciation of the absurd is probably best for this show.
