Pushing Daisies

Ned uses his unique ability to bring his childhood sweetheart back to life after her murder, though he must keep his distance, because if he touches her again she will die again -- and stay that way forever.

Ned suspects that there is more to the story when an automotive expert dies in an unusual hit-and-run accident; Chuck wants answers about how Ned brought her back to life.

Another strange death leads Ned back to the site of Chuck's resurrection; pies laced with antidepressants brighten the lives of Aunt Lily and Aunt Vivian.

Ned and his partners try to find out whether the pilot of a plane that crashed into an apartment building was committing suicide; Olive takes an injured messenger-pigeon to the aunts for assistance.

Olive hires Ned and the team to investigate when jockeys turn up trampled to death, purportedly by the ghost of a long-dead rider (Hamish Linklater) and his spooky horse; the ghosts of Ned's past haunt him as Halloween nears.

Ned thinks it's an open-and-shut case when he tries to figure out who killed a renowned dog-breeder, until he realises the dead man was a polygamist with four wives.
