Synopsis

Maggi & Me chronicles the misadventures of a Singaporean scam artist, Johnny Tan ', who, during a phony scene that he set up to scam a couple of old women, accidentally befriends the ghost of a deceased bride ', who under unexplained circumstances, might have been killed on her wedding night. The series' setting is similar to that of the 2005 American film Just Like Heaven. This unusual pairing finds themselves working together in unlikely situations, along the lines of Ghostbusters and Ghost Whisperer, with a little Psych and Jennifer Slept Here thrown in for good measure.
Because he is the only one that can see her, Johnny has to keep his sanity because the spirit in question is also suffering from spectral amnesia: It appears that she doesn't remember anything about how she died or her mortal life, except for the letter M that she has on her necklace. With that mystery surrounding her death, Johnny also believes that he can put together the pieces of her puzzle and find out the truth about his spirited partner so her soul can finally rest in peace, even though Maggi is hoping for a chance at being reincarnated.
