Pushing Daisies, Chuck

Touch them once and they come to life, touch them once again and they die forever. Dying forever.. Kinda redundant isn’t it? Not if you’re Ned the Piemaker in Pushing Daisies. If only the narration wasn’t very compelling, I’d have chucked the series from the get go. The series makes for a very frustrating situation. The main character’s childhood sweetheart (one he hasn’t seen since they were children) was killed for reasons that the first (or was it the second) episode will show. The Piemaker having the gift of giving life on the first touch decided to resurrect his sweetheart feeling that she’s too cute to be dead. Unfortunately for him, he has to make sure that he doesn’t touch her again (even unintentionally) or he will send her to the great beyond forever. Can you imagine sleeping in the same room with the girl you have the hots for and not being able to err.. jump her bones?

Chuck in Chuck has a bluetooth application in his head that allowed him to download images of the US’s secrets in his brain. Not. But at least that’s the show’s intention. How can some guy download information into his head(remotely at that!) unless he has some blue tooth or infra red device stuck in his brain somewhere. Johnny Mnemonic would be ashamed.
