okay picture this
- Brian Fuller’s original 2007 magical realism romantic comedy with a dash of morbidity (after all, this is Brian Fuller we’re talking abt) & fairytale elements
- as this review describes: “Characters & plot like Lemony Snicket, sets like Tim Burton, shots like Wes Anderson, rapid witty dialogue like Gilmore Girls, and costumes like uh, frickin’ magic.”
- everything is Super Saturated All The Time and the costume design is literally flawless
- starring: asexual bakery man, very tall very kind and himbo-adjacent, has low-level necromantic powers named Ned
- Ned is, for convoluted reasons, the accomplice of a film noir detective named after a fish (Emerson Cod) who looks like a hardass but secretly loves pop-up books and knitting
- Ned the bakery man is a Piemaker and works in and owns a building that looks like this
- (there are novelty cherry lighting fixtures)
- he has a dog, who is undead, bc aforementioned necromantic bakery boy has the unique skill of being able to touch dead things and bring them back to life
- he and Emerson Cod touch murder victims, ask them who killed them, and then collect the reward. easy get-money-quick-scheme, UNTIL
- Ned’s childhood crush and my life’s icon, Charlotte “Chuck” Charles, gets murdered on a cruise
- he touches her once (ONCE) and is never able to touch her again, lest his necromantic powers zap her back to death. hence:
- contact-free romance ensues.
- I highly recommend the show for: asexuals, demisexuals, dog people, people who like pie, fashion & costume design enthusiasts, anyone who’s a fan of film noir, people who like pie and dogs and mermaids
- literally this show is my absolute all time favorite PLEASE watch it
- you can watch both seasons for free here
- literally if you’ve ever cared for my opinion at all please watch at least the first episode i beg of u
