* EstablishingSeriesMoment: The very first scene of the show is of young Ned and Digby running playfully through a gorgeous field of flowers until [[MoodWhiplash Digby abruptly gets run over by a truck]] and Ned resurrects him. This instantly establishes both the premise of the series and its signature mix of storybook whimsy and morbid humor.

Unfortunately, it ended up doomed to live up to its name. The first season was truncated by the 2007 WritersStrike, and the second season didn't have much of a head of steam under it. The writing team was given 3 episodes to wrap up the series, and the last episode was aired on June 13, 2009 - [[LudicrousPrecision one year, eight months, one week and three days]] after the first. The two seasons together make up a normal full-sized season.
