Where it all starts

I read this blog by this girl who is an aspiring TV writer. She recently revealed the beginning script/character descriptions of some TV shows. She happened to have one regarding “Pushing Daisies”. Here it is:

CAMERA FINALLY REVEALS NED’S FACE

Simultaneously handsome and awkward, about 30 years of age. Ned’s lips are whistling but we don’t hear a sound.

Ned runs his hand over the pine frame then lifts the lid, bathing the body of Charlotte Charles, aka CHUCK, in sunlight.

NARRATOR
Only Prince Charming could know how the Pie-Maker felt upon looking at her. Even in death she’s beautiful, a woman yet very much the little girl he once knew.

NARRATOR (CONT’D)
Great thought was taken as to where to touch her. The hand too impersonal, lips too forward, the cheek… the cheek. Ned’s finger closes in on Chuck’s alabaster cheek and CAMERA JUMPS TO AN EXTREME-EXTREME-EXTREME CLOSE UP of his slow caress. A CRACKLE OF ELECTRICITY between finger and cheek.

Here’s more from other shows.
