Dead Like Me Lives On

Yessssss!!!!!

Although I missed this show when it was actually on the air, my recent TV on DVD binging has included the two seasons of this show. Dead Like Me was one of those shows that was smart (or smart mouthed), funny, and a fun watch, with too few people watching. If the original cast signs on, this could be the closure that fans have desperately neeeded in the form of a made for DVD movie. I know, "made for DVD movie" has that ring of shitty Lifetime movie, but seriously, I'll take anything. I'm so sick of blue balls. Wonderfalls? Carnivale?

Thank you, thank you, thank you, MGM.

One day I'll have a chance to repeat these words

"Since I just got promoted, I just thought you two should know that I take my coffee with a little milk, two sugars, and a lot less of your bullshit."

--George Lass, Dead Like Me (season 2)

Netflix to the rescue

What does one do when wallowing in self-pity and indifference towards one's job/career/future? One shall spend the entire weekend watching Netflixes. This weekend's menu:

1. The Wire: Season 2, Disc 1
2. The Wire: Season 2, Disc 2
3. Dead Like Me: Season 1, Disc 1

I know, it's an odd combination. My general rule of thumb is never to watch multiple TV series at the same time...ruins the palette. I was told by Nikki that I needed to prepare myself with season 2 since it was very different from season 1 and, in her opinion, not as good. In that case, I decided to add a little garnish of Dead Like Me as an intermezzo, a palette cleanser should I need to run screaming from The Wire.
