Okay -- I checked this out. It's too much comedy for my taste. It also has a Tim Burton "creepy happy sweetness" feel to it. Add to that the fact that the main character is a very innocent young man who seems very childlike in mental capacity and understanding and a narrator that seems to nice and caring and it's just not "realistic" enough for me. It's interesting, and an interesting concept -- but I don't be watching it.

I hate the narrator. It's too Dr. Suess for me. And the main character has an annoying vacant look on his face all the time.
But I want that house the aunts lived in!

I don't know if I see this show as making it, but I did enjoy aspects of it. Visually it was appealing.
I didn't mind the narrator... but I just rented the Arrested Development and watched it (as I'd never seen it) so I don't think I really paid that much attention to the Narrator... just seemed normal.

Oh, I love the narrator in Arrested Development (and How I met Your Mother, and even the voice overs in Veronica Mars), but the narrator's voice in Pushing Up Daisies annoyes me.
We actually watched the entire pilot last night (I didn't even realize I had only seen the last 15 minutes or so of it, it just seemed so long! lol). It's a cute show, but the above mentioned annoyances will keep me from being able to watch more than an episode here and there.
