it's got a dead like me-vibe going... but it's nowhere near as clever or good.
actors feels misplaced (and not very good either), there's no way that the story
holds up for a tv show... and it's just bad.
damnit, give me some more dead like me instead. :/

i predict this will not go down well with the viewing figures...but i loved
it...i have to say my favourite parts of the pilot were:
*the names of places(alliteration and repeating of words.)
*the symbolic touching (especially the wall scene...)
i hope the narration doesn't do the "this is how long they lived to the minute"
thing through out the series...it was good the first 3 times...but after that it
got...well annoying.

bothering with the show again but by the end of it i was disappointed i have to
wait for the next one

i liked this preair very much, but i don't think it has potential as a series.
it would have had some potential as a move or a miniseries, but not a regular
tv-show. the style of the show is very tiring in the long term. i wouldn't like
to watch tree or four episode after each other.

omg you and be both!.. i really hated that stupid nine year blah blah blah crap.
i thought how they told the story was very confusing.. so let me get this
straight.. if ned touches the same person twice within a minute that someone
else doesn't die. if he doesn't then someone else will die? but overall it
wasn't too bad.. i'm still wondering how he got this power in the first place..

s'okay. little... weird.
btw, that dude looks like kevin kline! funny how all these new "preairs" have
somebody who looks like somebody more famous (pushing daisies - kevin kline;
chuck - jimmy fallon; reaper - jason biggs (well, at least he acts like him)...

i found it wonderfully charming. the chemistry between the two main characters was
nice to see. the last time i saw anna friel she had a geordie accent and she did a
good job of being a yank in this one.
i would like to see at least 4-5 episodes and see how the character development
pans out before making a judgment but it looks very promising although i did find
the narration irksome.

i found it quirky and sweet and loved the aesthetic - the storybook aspect
reminded me a little of nanny mcphee and the lemony snickett film. the writing
was great, v tight and intelligent - hopefully it lasts the distance.
loving the pre-airs btw - in new zealand we generally don't get anything until
well after the fact so it's great to have a wee taste of what's to come.

wow, loved this pilot!
i've just been downloading preairs without actually reading them up so that i
could be objective, and i've got to say this one's fantastic. i think it'd work
better as a movie though.
still, i was sure this was a cable series - imagine my surprise when i found out
it was on abc!
i hope it gets a full season - but i always get attached to one series that get
canceled 5 episodes in - please don't let it be pushing daises.

i am hoping that it will last for more than a few episodes and that it can
attract a large fan base. it has become one of my favorite shows and it hasn't
even aired officially yet. can't wait for the next episode!
