S01.E06: What We Owe to Each Other


Recommended Posts

I think the most about My Name Is Earl with this show: protagonist who used to be horrible and is trying to be better but barely even knows how. (And as a further tangent, the funniest nickname I ever saw for Samantha Who - a show with a similar kind of setup - was "My Name Is Girl".)

Wow.  I didn't even know Bryan Fuller did both PD and Dead Like Me.  Makes a lot of sense!

He also did Hannibal!

Dead girl with a boy's name.  Sort of a signature move.

Yeah. George, Jaye, and Chuck.

Chuck was a great character. Every episode of Pushing Daisies put a smile on my face by the time it was over. Just thinking about it now puts a big smile on my face.

Regarding the language in porn issue, I would just assume the language is auto-cleansed like when the individuals try to curse.

And now I'm laughing at how absurd that would sound: "Fork my patsy, fork my patsy, fork my patsy! Yeahhhhhh!" "You like that drip, bench?"

Huh. I would've thought the real words would be more offensive, but no. A man asking whether I liked his drip (and comparing me to a bench) would actually be worse.

I agree that this show is very reminiscent of Pushing Daisies --which was my all-time-favorite show!  I was SO angry when they forking canceled it. The Good Place is now a happy spot in my week.

I'm not totally convinced that they know where they're going but I appreciate that this show has at least put in some research about ethics and philosophy. There's something grounding it. I've gotten invested in too many shows that didn't seem to have an end game.

"Made in Taiwan."

Don't worry, they know where they're going.
