Not Dead Yet
"She's taking ghost writing to a whole new level."
Overview
Nell Serrano is a broke and newly single self-described disaster. She works to restart the life and career she left behind some 10 years ago. When writing obituaries is the only job she can find, Nell starts getting life advice from an unlikely (and dead) source.
Not Dead Yet uses the morbid task of writing obituaries as a mechanism for personal reinvention. The workplace comedy setup offers a grounding contrast to the surreal encounters that occur whenever Nell Serrano begins to see the subjects of her latest columns. Instead of typical afterlife tropes, the series relies on these spectral interactions to force a stalled protagonist into addressing the professional and personal wreckage of her past decade.
The chemistry between the ensemble sustains the comedic pacing, with Rick Glassman providing an especially sharp foil to the lead character. By pairing standard office politics and the humdrum struggles of a reporter starting over with a supernatural twist, the show creates a specific rhythm. It functions as a character study disguised as an odd-couple comedy, focusing on the messy process of rebuilding a life rather than the tragedy of the ghosts themselves.
