Every not-so-often, along comes a show that’s different. Wonderfully different. TV Guide’s Matt Roush writes, â€restores my faith in TV’s ability to amuse, enchant and entertain.†It’s the story of Ned, a lonely pie maker whose touch can reanimate the dead. Cool, but there’s a hitch. If Ned touches the person again, the miracle is reversed. If he doesn’t, a bystander goes toes up. What to do? Easy: Team with a private eye, bring murder victims back just long enough to discover whodunit, and collect the rewards. Things go well until Ned’s boyhood sweetie is the next dear departed, and he can’t resist bringing her back for keeps!
The first season consists of only 9 episodes due to that darn writers’ strike. These 9 episodes will span 3 discs, and are presented in 16×9 widescreen with 5.1 Dolby Surround audio.
Release date: August 19, 2008
