What makes it different from others?

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The movie really just wants to entertain people.

this is my first review, i liked this series so much that i dare to say something about it. the first thing that comes to my mind is: too bad it was canceled so early. i think not many people are ready to watch a show like this. the cast was very strong and the different characters were very well written in my opinion. many parts of the story had a real feel to it. for me it seemed that the weird detective character was used as a tool to push the story along and also as a way to see how people can be damaged from losing an important person in their life and never getting a chance to work through the pain. i loved watching this series and wish they would have given it a proper ending even in form of a comic or a graphic novel. i would also be happy with a note from the creator on how the show would have progressed. all in all i am glad for what i have seen and got out of it. the show made me cry a little and laugh a little. i tried not to get too emotionally involved since i knew it was canceled by the time i started watching it. this series could be for you, if you liked (the first season of) dead like me.

I have to admit this is one of my new favourite shows. My family also loves it. It's original with dark comedy. I can't believe it's not as popular as my other favourite shows such as Glee and Big Bang Theory. It really helps to bring you down to earth and find joy in the little things. Such as Carla, in the show, finds joy in killing a cockroach. It reminds me in a way of Pushing Daisies and I strongly hope that this show does not end up getting cancelled after two seasons like Pushing Daisies. Please continue more episodes, I think this show could really catch on. I first discovered it The Movie Network On Demand and have been hooked ever since. The characters really show that death can open up many windows, as they find love and pursue the dreams they never never thought of reaching for. They realize that they would have missed out on all this if they had succeeded in suicide. I'd recommend it to anyone.

I have seen three episodes. The initial thought was that there has to be some hook or something somewhere to make the audience to come back for more, but so far I am wrong.The acting is poor, characters flat, 'jokes' not funny, unimaginative script, no twists, no humour, nothing to disgust me, or feel any kind of emotion, or even make me think. It is as entertaining as watching paint dry.If you are a fan of either House, Dexter, Lost, Chuck, Glee, or the slow paced Justified, then you probably will find this series (so far) very very disappointing, and that is being kind.Just like chuck opened with Cake's 'Short Skirt, Long Jacket', this should have opened up with a version of "Mad World", but that would have been it's only redeeming feature, and a waste of a good song.

As soon as the first episode starts you cannot be helped for thinking you are watching one of those God awful day time amercian soaps. The sets are bad, the filming is bad, the actors are bad and thats not just due to the script being bad. I nearly gave up about 5 minutes in, but a gratuatous "night, night kitty" arse shot bought them a while longer. When its bad, it really has nothing going for it, but at times I found myself thinking of one of those dreary Cronenberg films like "Spiders" or the one with the rabbits. But unfortunately I do not mean this to be seen as a positive, because Cronenberg only gets away with it because of some of the excellent films he has made. IMDb lists this program as a comedy / drama. In my opinion the comedy is not funny and the drama less than dramatic. Avoid it, it cant possibly last.
