Ned The Piemaker - Tumblr Posts
Why are they kissing through plastic wrap? o:
oh my god you dont know what pushing daisies is!!!! people dont know what pushing daisies is!!!!! oh my GOD anon strap in
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
I have a feeling that Thranduil and his wife had a relationship with bubbly moments, but also enough passion to fill every shelf of romance novels in a book store.
I’m talking tender and hot behind closed doors, but best friends before anything else. Also, the most awesome parents ever when Legolas was born…like Morticia and Gomez awesome!
Sometimes I wonder about what kind of problems would come up if Ned the pie maker came over for dinner at Hannibal’s
I wanted this ending on Pushing Dasies 😭 But I love the series anyway 🌼
