Line 1: {{~~trope~~work}} [[File:spirited_8970.jpg\|frame\|"It's complicated."]] {{quote\| ''Who says romance is dead?''}} Suzy Darling is having a rough few days. She just walked out on her [[Your Cheating Heart\|unfaithful husband]], Steve, taking her children with her to her newly bought penthouse. The penthouse is beautiful with a lovely balcony and it's right next to her dental practice. Just one problem: It's haunted by the ghost of [[Punk Rock\|Nerve]] frontman, Henry Mallet, whom Suzy alone can see and hear. Suzy has to juggle dealing with Henry's antics and demands, raising her children, settling into her new place, running her dental practice, and dodging Steve's attempts to in turn sabotage her new life and woo her back. ''[[Spirited]]'' is an Australian [[Dramedy]] on W Channel starring Claudia Karvan, Matt King, and Rodger Corser. It aired for two series, before [[Too Good to Last\|its cancellation in 2011]]. Not to be confused with ''[[Spirited Away]]''. {{tropelist}} ~~------~~ * [[Ascend to Aa Higher Plane of Existence]]: Presumably what happens to {{spoiler\|ghosts who get into the taxis}}.▼ ~~This series provides examples of:~~ ▲* [[Ascend to A Higher Plane of Existence]]: Presumably what happens to {{spoiler\|ghosts who get into the taxis}}. * [[Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other]]: For all the times they fight and bicker, Suzy and Henry have more of these moments as the series goes on. * [[Backstory]]: Much of the show revolves around discovering Henry's past. Line 22 ⟶ 21: * [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Henry. Being invisible makes it easy to snark at everyone. * [[Depraved Dentist]]: Suzy isn't really, but after her husband's friends tell her they aren't interested in being friends with her now that she's separated from Steve... {{quote\| "I am a very good dentist, but if you make an appointment with me, I will ''destroy'' your teeth. [[Cheshire Cat Grin\|In ways you cannot begin to imagine.]]"}} * [[Erotic Dream]]: Both played seriously and for laughs. * [[Fish Out of Temporal Water]]: Henry, a bit. Line 32 ⟶ 31: * [[Invisible Main Character]]: Henry again, to everyone but Suzy. * [[Jacob Marley Apparel]] * [[Jerk ~~With~~with a Heart of Jerk]]: Steve, who seems sympathetic for about a half hour of the first episode. * [[Jerk ~~With~~with a Heart of Gold]]: Henry, once he starts warming up to the Darlings. * [[Kuudere]]: Suzy, whom Steve's friends call a "robot", but {{spoiler\|Henry}} calls "sweet". * [[Not-So-Imaginary Friend]]: Henry Mallet * [[Opposites Attract]]: The ghost of a punk rocker from the late 1970s/early 1980s and a straight-laced single-mother dentist. * [[Parental Neglect]]: Suzy, in an early episode. * [[Parent ~~With~~with New Paramour]]: The kids never learn of Suzy's liasons, but Verity gets embarrassed by Steve's relationship with {{spoiler\|Verity's teacher}}. * [[Psychic Dreams for Everyone]]: Ghosts can apparently connect to the living's dreams. * [[Psychopathic Manchild]]: {{spoiler\|Apollo.

Line 48 ⟶ 47: * [[Unfinished Business]]: Often speculated in-universe for the reason why Henry's still around. No one's sure what the unfinished business is, though. * [[Victory Pose]]: Suzy has one, [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?\|the pose a gymnast pulls upon landing a jump]]. * [[Visit Byby Divorced Dad]]: Steve's interactions with Elvis and Verity.
