Dead Like Me

[TxBrew]

Anyone watched this show? Just started watching it via Netflix. Never even heard of it before but just watched Season 1. Really well done.

 

[DeathBrewer]

I really liked it...very cool premise and beautifully shot. The main character is not real likeable, but I think that's the idea...annoyed little girl dealing with death.

 

[dataz722]

It sounds vaguely familiar. Whats it about?

 

[TxBrew]

Dead people who turn into grim reapers.

 

[dataz722]

How does it not surprise me that DB liked it then.

Is it on "watch instantly" on netflix?

 

[DeathBrewer]

season 1 and 2 are, fo sho.

 

[llazy_llama]

They only made 2 seasons, sadly. I wanted it to go on for much longer, but it just kind of petered out at the end. The wife and I loved that show, and still have the 2 seasons on DVD.

 

[DeathBrewer]

I must have seen it all, then. I thought I missed some.

wait, they made a movie sequel:

IMDb Video: Dead Like Me: Life After Death

 

[Kronin]

hmm, have you seen wonderfalls? I think it only went for 1 season. not as dark but very entertaining. plus the main character is super hot

 

[k1v1116]

It had its moments btw in addition to the two seasons there is a movie that came out recently "Dead Like Me: Life After Death"

EDIT: too late

 

[DeathBrewer]

Yeah, they went the futurama route. SCREW YOU FOR CANCELING US! We'll just make straight to dvd movies. **** is awesome

 

[imaguitargod]

I second the notion that the main character is hot! I love that pouty look and her lips are fantastic! I would totaly drug her and throw her in the trunk of my car any day of the week!





I have said to much......

[DeathBrewer]

i think he was talking about the wonderfalls chick, but hey! drink on!

One of my favourite shows when it was on TV. Bought both seasons on DVD but I think I preferred the first over the second.

 

[Laughing_Gnome_Invisible]

Excellent TV show. Now I gotta get that movie!

 

[kornbread]

I liked the show despite it's annoying cast. It had a very cool premise. But, I just kept expecting Mandy Patinkin to start that awful high pitch singing of his at any time.

 

[ScoutMan]

Gotta get the movie, never knew it existed. I really enjoyed this show when it was on showtime originally. I really like Reggie (the little sister) for her brutally honest personallity. She ended up pretty hot too.
Netflix has really gotten me into series I never knew existed. I just got done with season one of The Wire. For a guy who grew up in a town void of crime other than the occasional dui, moonshiner, poacher or wood thief, this show blows me away.

 

[DeathBrewer]

You're in luck. She just turned 18.

 

[Tonedef131]

Dead Like Me was pretty clever, but I still think Pushing Daisies was Brian Fuller's best. Too bad he is cursed to only get two seasons at most out of all his shows.

 

[DeathBrewer]

Pushing Daisies was great. It seemed to be able to mix that odd, cheerful quality with a dark concept. Brilliantly done...until Olive starts singing.

How can that girl be so damn attractive and so damn annoying at the same time?

 

[pen25]

dead like me is awesome. loved it and recorded all the shows. and i do want to watch the new one. sad that it ended. but so did several other shows i liked that only lasted a season or 2. =(

 

[imaguitargod]

I still mad that FOX killed the live action The Tick tv show only after a few episode.....

 

[llazy_llama]

How can that girl be so damn attractive and so damn annoying at the same time?

Apparently you haven't met my wife.

Edited: She doesn't read this, so I'm safe.

 

[Kronin]

Apparently you haven't met my wife.

holy **** balls we are married to the same lady?

 

[DeathBrewer]

That chick is 40 years old, too. huh.

 

[DeathBrewer]

holy **** balls we are married to the same lady?

You found someone to marry you?

 

[Orfy]

I put this on my ignore list but I've changed it to want to see on your reccomendations.

I may watch it tonight.

 

[bad coffee]

I really dug that show. All the characters seemed to do really well together, the subplots were really done well. Ellen Muth (who played George) was a spitting image of an ex of mine. So many dirty thoughts, so many dirty thoughts...

I didn't know they made a movie. i've got to watch it now.

[Kronin]

Canadian actress Caroline Dhavernas... star of that wonderfalls show.

Ya! check my chocolate torte thread

Sweet mother persephone!

In the debate on the existence of god, this is evidence against my position. I had a crush on this girl the first time I saw that show

 

[LabRatBrewer]

This was a great show, I wish there were more episodes.
