Almost every critic known to man is saying Pushing Daisies is by far the best of new fall shows and one of the best shows period. This is after seeing only one episode. It may be premature to claim this, but I watched the pilot myself and it was fantastic. If the show can maintain this level of quality, it may surpass Friday Night Lights and Lost as my favorite show on TV.
Here is what TV Guide had to say about the show:
And here is a fansite that has compiled reviews for the show.

For those who don't know, Pushing Daisies is a show about a piemaker named Ned with a unique ability. He bring the dead back to life by touching them. However, touch them twice and they stay dead for good.
This ability, however, is not without its problems. Life and Death have a funny way of balancing themselves out, so if Ned brings someone back to life, and they stay alive for more than a minute, someone else will drop-dead in their place.
So what is a piemaker to do with such a unique ability? Solve murder mysteries, of course. Cash rewards are often offered to those with any information on the murderer. Since Ned can bring people back to life, all he has to do is touch a murder victim, ask him or her who the murderer was, and then touch them before a minute elapses, ensuring that they will now stay dead and that someone else will not be taken in their place. The result? The best new show on TV.
I'll be watching this next Wednesday at 8. Anyone else?
