Heh, I know what you mean! That's the reason why I initially didn't want to watch the show either. I love shows like Dead Like Me and Six Feet Under, but I was definitely not looking for another show that wallows in drama and death and morbid fascination with our mortality and when I read the premise of Pushing Daisies it seemed to go into the same direction, so I found myself totally surprised by the light-hearted tone of the show.
It's funny that you reacted to this review, since I would never have recommended this show to you, because I'd assume that this isn't your kind of show. Too colourful, playful and sweet for you would've been my guess. *g* Mostly probably because I read all your reviews on Pilots that you liked and none of them is anything like PD. So I am curious if this kind of show appeals to you after all! :D
Anyways, it was the first time since I discovered SN that I had the urge to re-watch something on the spot, because it made me feel so utterly content and light spirited. So I have high hopes for the show, it might be the perfect balance for SN induced anxiety attacks! *g*
